The Seven Deadly Sins of Photography

I've committed all seven deadly sins of photography. And one of them, I'm still committing this year. Pride, gluttony, greed, sloth, lust, envy and wrath, told through 40 years behind the camera: a tree I did something terrible to, an eight-thousand-dollar machine that vanished like a fever dream, and the photographer I spent years telling myself had it easy. If you shoot commercial work, fine art or just love photography, you've probably committed a few of these too. Which one is yours? Tell me in the comments.
