Hello everyone,

There's nothing to learn in this post. I just need to vent.

Last night, my camera bag was stolen. In it was my camera, a couple of lenses, a flash and some more things. I was sitting in a park bench with it by my side. A guy sat on the bench behind me (they were back to back). I noticed him and, since my jacket was hung over both benches, I picked it up and put it on top of my camera back. He begged for some money and I gave him some pocket change. Some minutes later, I got up and the guy was gone as was my bag. I have no way of knowing for sure if it was him but I didn't notice anyone else close-by.

I'm a hobbyist. I've started taking photography seriously two years ago and kept studying. I've become quite good at it, although there's still a lot to learn. My plan for next year was to start a Youtube channel about the subject and see if I could get some extra income through that.…
