AUPD: Big Stopper

From Alexander's Unofficial Photo Dictionary (AUPD), today:

Big Stopper, n. - a situation that never arises until on-location, when you're ready to start making photos - only to find that you forgot one crucial piece of equipment at home, like a charged battery, your memory card wallet, or the cable release for long exposures.

[there is a lesser version of the Big Stopper too: it happens at home, and includes finding out that you forgot to lower your ISO back from 3200 to 200, like after a night street photography session, and continued to use 3200 the next day for a daylight session.]
