Jason Heaton-
“So writing gear reviews and travel and adventure articles justifies as “research” a lifetime of tramping about the planet, climbing mountains, scuba diving, and having a basement that looks like your local outdoor shop.‘
“The New York Times called me (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/04/fashion/mens-style/does-anyone-actually-go-diving-with-a-dive-watch.html), “a test pilot for the world’s most illustrious undersea timepieces” and I admit that sounds a little grandiose“
Gishani
‘It’s not really about the watch, is it? It’s about what you can do with it. The same goes for any piece of gear: a backpack, a kayak, a camera. So that’s how I try to shoot: put the gear, and the people using it, into the backdrop of natural surroundings.“

Mattias Burling (and Gunpowder) “A man with a bulldog (#gunpowderthedog (https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/gunpowderthedog/)) who loves photography and old forgotten cameras.“
—“Mattias Burling, Sweden
On this site I will showcase photos that I've taken in my spare time.
The images will be a selection of my favorites.
Not the "best", most "professional" or technically "correct".
These are the images I like, never mind the reason.“
