On June 2 my gear was devastated by a fire
Donation protected
My name is Justin Harvey owner of Native Visions 307 art gallery. On June 2nd my motorcycle was involved in a roadside fire and all my camera gear/ drone,phone and clothes was consumed by a fire, leaving me with a significant loss of equipment and resources. As Native visions 307 Justin Harvey I rely on our equipment to capture and produce high-quality images. Here are some ways equipment is essential:
1. Camera: The camera is the most critical piece of equipment, as it captures the image. Different cameras offer various features, such as resolution, sensor size, and lens compatibility.
2. Lenses: Lenses control the angle of view, depth of field, and image sharpness. Photographers often carry multiple lenses for different situations.
3. Tripod: A tripod provides stability, allowing for sharper images in low light and slower shutter speeds.
4. Lighting: Natural or artificial light can make or break an image. Photographers use flashes, strobes, or continuous lights to enhance or control lighting.
5. Memory cards: Adequate storage is crucial for capturing multiple images.
6. Batteries and power sources: Reliable power ensures uninterrupted shooting.
7. Filters: Filters protect lenses, reduce glare, and enhance colors or effects.
8. Remote shutter release or camera timer: These tools minimize camera shake and ensure sharp images.
9. Reflector or diffuser: These tools control light and reduce harsh shadows.
10. Editing software: Post-processing software like Adobe Lightroom or Photoshop enables photographers to enhance and refine their images.
11. Camera bag or backpack: Protecting equipment during transport and storage is vital.
12. Additional accessories: Depending on the genre, photographers may require specialized equipment like macro extension tubes, teleconverters, or underwater housings.
In summary, a photographer's equipment is their toolkit, enabling them to capture and create images that tell stories, evoke emotions, and convey messages. . The fire has not only caused financial strain but also hinders my ability to continue working/serve our local and online community.
