City vs. Country
Every bag serves a different purpose: One for wandering the roads of New Mexico working on ‘The Odysseus‘ series and one for running around the streets of NYC between meetings and photo shoots.

my small field bag houses a Leica M9, 50mm 1.4mm lens, an iPhone, Ray Ban glasses, extra batteries, SD cards, cleaning gear and usually, a banana for sustenance, I never, ever leave home without it. The bag that is. It goes with my Filson hat and brief case
