Coming Full Circle, AGAIN !!

Long story/Old story.........made.......shorter with Images
Current Economy hit big time ! 1st victims TOYS. Hey I'm a big (read Old) boy I can hang without.
Time Passes............????????
Wifey comes home one day and says, Your startin to look and act like your Buddies!

I say you mean these guys:


No she says, Ahh I say you must mean Him:


No she grins, I means this BOY!



Listen Killer (yeah, yeah I know) she says, Didn't you leave that old camera you started with up in the closet ??
Well says I, think I did. So investigating I go.

It's an old one for sure (by today standards) but young at heart and still workable:


Wildlife captures will be well lets say at a minumum :cry :rofl




Maybe I'll go shot some Street??


Or maybe join in on a Challange??
Ahh, call it "Takin a Free Ride"



Whatever the outcome, Glad to have a tool back in my hands :thumb

I guess after all this, you might wander why'd I/you botherd with this post....

Gee, Haven't the Foggiest :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

Except, Thanks for Hangin In :lust

Hey Ben always a pleasure to hear from you and to view your images. I'm really sorry that the economy chewed on your butt. Here's hoping for better times and gear real soon.

Hey Harry missed trading posts with ya, glad to be here.

I hope your right and I do all I can in that direction,
but in the meantime I'm going to plan on being the poster child
for that old addage, "It ain't the gear!"

thanks Gale nice to trade words and images with you again as well.

Let me take this opportunity to say, I'm not at all upset with my turn of events.
You know it's only gear, sure I'd love to shot again with top of the pile stuff (I will ),
but for now I welcome the challange. I was tickled to find this old relic waiting patiently for my return .

As far as what ............... call it a :

Fluzzy, Panny or FZ20
like I said I welcome the challange :ivar

Hey Ben, I am confident that you will recover after this mess and I look forward to seeing those great hummingbird shots, but in the meantime, these are fine images. There is a lot crap going around with bankers still getting bonuses, insurance companies raking in profits galore, Big Oil execs still receiving subsidies for their companies and in the meantime, you and I suffer. It will pass. Stay strong!
