Gear Acquisition Syndrome [GAS] is a well known malady among photography types. Like the flu, it is especially prevalent in winter. There can also be an outbreak when anticipating a trip or event. One method of keeping GAS in check is to spend a lot of time using the gear that you already possess, hence the winter time prevalence. I've found that even a short outing in frigid or inclement weather can help reduce the symptoms.
I've also found that it really only applies to gear that you use making photos. For instance, I really do need another backup storage solution but I can not bring myself to spend money on a new portable hard drive or SSD. I will wait until almost every gigabyte is used up on the five I currently have for that purpose.
Here are some photos from some quick visits across the river since my last blog post.
