I've sold my DSLR.

It was a beautiful tool and I loved it for years. It was just time to pare some excesses from my days.

Now shooting with a crop sensor mirrorless Sony A6000 and my iPhone. Less gear feels like freedom. So much less to haul around. Fewer decisions to make -- which camera, which lens, which gear to pack. It feels wonderful.

This shot was taken with the A6000 (now my big camera) and a lensbaby edge. Joule coffee shop in Raleigh, NC. Fred had a possibly life-changing espresso. I had the Reverend Parker. Bourbon + black tea + lemon. Perfect.
