Every so often I get this itch to purchase things. I can go for months without buying anything or even thinking about it, but then when it comes, I go ‘lil shopping crazy. I’m not talking clothes either cause that would make me a proper girl. This time around I’m after camera gear, not a big surprise there! I’ve been meaning to complete my lens collection for some time and Nikon just release two of the sweetest lenses, 85mm and 24mm. Also the new camera bodies are coming out early next year, and I’m getting very excited about those too. Eh, now I just have to justify the costs in my head. Oh, and a Shootsac would make a perfect Christmas gift! You know, just saying.

Wednesday, January 13th, 2010- Every so often I get this weird desire to buy more camera gear; some things I need, some not so much. It usually happens when the same lens keeps surfacing on different parts of the interwebs, and it’s always painted in glorious colours, and I can’t help but want it. So I’m putting my girly foot down, and telling this lovely Nikkor 35mm f/1.8 (or f/2D -haven’t decided yet) that I will not sway and get it! NO, LENS, NO! If someone is booking me for a photo shoot in the next 2 weeks, your money is buying me this lens! That’s the only condition under which I’m falling into that consumer trap! Why can’t I be like other ladies and drool over pretty dresses, shoes, jewelry and frequent manicures! Apparently my priorities are shifted towards the geeky gadget side…
- I’m also starting a six month gym challenge with a friend, mainly since I figured sitting in front of the computer all day is not good for anyone, and I need more structure to my day. I think he is already winning, cause I’m yet to go and get a gym membership! I kind of missed my regular workout schedule in the past year, but so not looking forward to the first week! Oh the muscle pain, here I come! Should I do the whole before and after shots? It’ll be bony vs. bony, but could be fun.
- Here is some colour to keep you winter blues free. It might look warm, but it was well below zero at -15C.
