Lists - The Photographers - Vol.1

I’m a list lover. I’ve got lists of everything:  the lenses and cameras I own / the lenses and cameras I want to buy / the songs I like / the places I have photographed, the places I want to shoot, even the places I don't care to shoot / the places I dream of visiting one day / the presents I will give to my loved ones when I become millionaire / all I want to do by next Tuesday…

I’ve also got many photography-related lists of all those things that I admire, envy and get inspiration by.
