Oakley Range Photochromic sunglasses

My outdoor sunglasses.. they are huge ! but the distortion is minimal, clarity excellent..

the downside of the large lens is they do fog up on occasion if the wind drops.

These are non polarising reactive lenses.. so they darken with UV light. being non polarising is great for digital photography as I often use circular polarisers on my lenses and polarising glasses would result in weird effects through the viewfinder!

Terra Nova Quasar 45

My ultra light backpack, suitable for single night winter wild camp trips.

Its not the most comfortable with only a basic harness system, but it does the job and weighs virtually nothing.. I think I would recommend the Osprey Exos 46 instead though as for just a touch more weight you get a much better harness system to carry the load.

Seems pretty durable though

Arcteryx Altra 62

A great backpack... big enough for a weeks expedition or wild camping for a couple of nights with a load of camera gear inside.
The major selling point of this pack is the opening, there is a u shaped zip that runs all the way around the front of the pack so you can open it up and access any of the interior items without having to unpack the bag from the top. this allows much more efficient packing for mass balance rather than access.
the harness system is excellent also with a rotating hip belt and adjustable shoulder straps for not only height but width too. After a few days carrying the pack its nice to just move the pressure to a new spot and give your shoulders a rest.
