Great suggestions! I will have to try the ones I haven't done.
Keep it up with your beautiful photos and great educational commentary for 2020.

Yes to all but selling unused equipment. It seems many times I sell prematurely and then regret it later. sometimes I even end up buying another one like the one I sold!

Use the cameras more. Write less.

Flash back to my Dad - New Years Dinner, each year he would quiz us all (actually interrogate) on what our New Years resolutions were. You had to have one. Your post made me smile.
He's been gone a good many years, but never to be forgotten.

Yeah. I need to stop being a whore.
I've got 8 cameras I use semi regularly. I need to chose 3. Stick with those, sell the rest with the rest.
I've been dabbling for decades with maybe 8 diff software PP packages, and I ain't so good at any.
TODAY I chose Affinity and Capture One- deleting the rest. I'll do waay better with just using these.
Half my lenses are going. Like my 500 mirror- I planned a couple trips just to use the lens. Bass Ackwards.
A box of olde flashes. Many are cheapos. Be like CrackerJacks- buy a camera, get a surprise in the box.
Olde meters. Some are differently accurate. Most were readjusted for @ Sunny10. Off they go.
I have 2 bookcases worth of unused. I want to get down to 2 shelves of used.

Happy New Year CHG.
My plans for 2020 is to look for travel photography opportunities in other countries, also to study drone photography and get certified as a drone pilot.
There are so many photography opportunities and good challenges to keep me busy in 2020.
Thanks

My resolutions are to take more pictures this year than last. To 'practice with purpose'.
2nd to post regularly here and ask for CC to help me improve.
3rd to encourage anyone I can (I don't know if I'm in the position to actually give anyone advice). But I know what I like, even if I don't always know why.
With resolutions number 1 and 2 I should say to be able to be proficient with the equipment that I currently own before than succumbing to GAS.
