There is a well known saying among the photo community \u2013 \u201cthe best camera is the one with you<\/a>\u201d which was said by photographer Chase Jarvis<\/a>. I think about this saying often. I\u2019m almost never without some form of camera; from my cell phone to a point & shoot to my work and play cameras. Even my cell phones camera is quite capable in most situations and I like to try and take at least one shot with it a day.<\/p>\n

A few weeks back I dislocated my shoulder while snowboarding. This was not really a pleasant experience, but an experience just the same. Looking back, I never took a single picture. Both my good friend Morgan <\/a>and I had our phones with us. I have no excuse for not documenting it and I feel daft for not taking a moment to capture at least a single frame. Only Morgan and I are going to remember what my shoulder looked like and I miss out on both bragging rights and the memory when I grow old.<\/p>\n

Reflecting back, this really makes me realize that I would like to stop more and document. Not to the point that it interrupts life, but enough that I don\u2019t miss major events.<\/p>\n

If you have any camera at all, I suggest taking it with you when you head out. Even if you don\u2019t use it, it would be a shame to want it and not have it.<\/p>\n

Here an old picture of Morgan, because what\u2019s a photographer\u2019s blog without pictures.<\/p>\n
