What do you want for your holiday? I don't get gifts anymore, but thought it might be fun to see what people want this year. Of course, this could be gear... but it could be something else. However, let's try to keep it photography oriented though. :) AND feel free to dream a little...
 
My two front seats.... to my Ramcharger project. lol

In reality. Expecting some cards and maybe a meal or two :)

Ill be carrying my little GRD to the parties - there photo related

For the first time in my Life
I really can’t think of anything that could bring me photographic Joy...
 
A hot cool wife. (no, that's not a contradiction)


A Selmer Mark VI alto sax.

Discussion of Selmer Mk VI's (on SOTW forums) reminds me a lot of discussions of Leica on photography forums.

Here's my tenor (Yamaha, not Selmer)

in the land of the tangible i wanted a new camera and bought myself one...in the land of my head i'd love to know what to point my camera, my eyes and my 'vision' at...
 
Lots of film.
A Bolex REX4 or Beaulieu R16.
Healthy partner, healthy family.
A banjo with a resonator and the time to get back into playing.
I really just want time.
I can make all the other things happen with time.

A pair of dungarees. Whenever I lose weight my posterior largely disappears, so holding up the jeans at the same time as using my camera can be at best comedic, at worst, felonious...
 
Frankly, all I want is one more conversation and another cocktail/coffee/beer/meal with several loved family and friends who have passed this year.
As to "stuff", there is not really anything I actually need.
I may buy myself a lens for the 4x5 enlarger I got last month and a VC or color head for it would be nice to find at a good price.
I will have a couple days off around Xmas and I will use some of that time towards building the counter and shelves for my slowly advancing darkroom.
Otherwise, I have enough film for the next few months for all my cameras and my darkroom chemicals are well stocked right now, too.
