Couldn't care less about new digital, I wan't another film M and collapsible Summicron as Image Universe to try after Summar and Summitar (both are the World at they own, but sold).
I also want to use less film, four rolls per week isn't productive on final outcome

1. Look for ways to condense down the amount of kit I own to what I need and use
2. Set up a couple of projects and actually do them properly
3. Re-start developing my own B&W negs
4. Avoid resolutions for the sake of them - they are just traps that set you up to fail

1. Be more thankful
2. Print more
3. Move from Flickr to a personal web site.
To resolution #1: A warm "thank you" to all the members of RFF for inspiring me to take better photographs!

1. Print more work
2. Start a serious writing effort (1 article a week, 500-1000 words)
3. Scan old film, with the caveat 'if it's worth scanning'
4. Do my One Hundred Rolls project
5. Get back in the habit of processing weekly
6. Downsize my digital footprint, unload some of the unused equipment

I few things up my sleeve
Would like to create an online Diary/ Blog.... words /photos
Tumblr is the easiest thing out there. I have 40+ Tumblrs.
Selling gear that didn't work out.
I've got a number of artists' books to print up later this year. Projects already placed at museums and special collection libraries. Here are 2 of them. (Still need to set up the Tumblr for book #3.)

Also have a number of prints due to requests when I get the time. I have maybe 6 to 8 big projects to shoot this year. I've scaled back when I will take the camera out. Just no time to even look through it all. So I only shoot if there is portfolio or museum placement potential. Right now I am working on 500 gigs of pix from 2014 I never looked through.
Also working on 4 other artists' books in various stages of completion.
I had to laugh, a few hours after I figured out how to post here yesterday I got this wonderful welcome private message...
I teach at one of the institutions that you have listed as "where my pix end up." Sending an institution an unsolicited 'gift' is not at all the same as an institution requesting work from an established artist as an addition to their existing collection. But it does work well to help pad one's CV to make it all look so yummy and real..... As Andy Warhol said: '15 minutes.' The internet can make anyone look like a star......
I hope 'the teacher' is more encouraging to the students. I routinely cut the critics out of my blogs with disabling comments. I will continue to cut critics out of my life left and right. When you have a vision, work towards that vision with unshakable commitment.
Scape Martinez sums how the successful artist works...
“Never give up! Don’t listen to the haters. Don’t try to be an artist unless you can work and live in isolation, without any thanks....bleak, but needed until you get to the much lauded place."
That is my resolution!
