What do you consider the most important tools of the trade? Computer, software, accessories, etc...

I'll start (even though my experience level is still lacking :) )

Solid tripod (Manfrotto 055XPROB)
ExpoDisc
Lightroom 2.3
A ridiculous amount of patience for my own mistakes and learning curve

But the best thing for me overall - POTN!
I have learned a ton here - thanks for the info!

"Brain" is not specific enough...developed right side brain for artistry and developed left side for technical applications.

Indeed, an undeveloped brain would be quite useless.

Do you know where I can get a liter of brain developer?
