I commented yesterday about how I had only my little camera rather than my DSLR for the photo I took yesterday. Why? Because Julie was with me and she had the good DSLR, of course. This photo shows Julie wading into the soft sand of the estuary for photos.
I now also have a good DSLR (a Nikon D90). Why? Because Julie got an even newer Nikon. The little camera I used for yesterday's photo also used to be Julie's. It became my camera when she moved up to the D90.
Now that you know the pecking order in our family, you can guess how I got the computer on which a posting this photo blog. Yes, it used to be Julie's. And the car I drive? Used to be Julie's. But with one exception, I am not complaining.
My complaint? Julie's computer had a neon, hot pink case. Once a little girl sitting next to me on an airplane commented "You need to get a boy computer." I now have a second computer case.
This week we have photos of the elegant villas and gardens of the Borromean Islands in Lake Maggiore, Italy, posted on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.
You have a great companion for your photo shoots together. You are a true gentleman...giving her the better camera of the two!
ReplyDeletesuch a funny story about the computer case.
ReplyDeleteI love my D90! Not at all ready to move. Obviously, Julie is the shopper and you reap the benes! Good on you!
ReplyDeleteYou had my laughing on this one Dave!
ReplyDeleteToo funny, Dave! Sounds about right. My husband gets to use the old cameras too.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a Julie in my life to pass down great cameras to me. I'm stuck with my Canon Rebel for all eternity I think.
ReplyDeleteI laughed at the photo. I was wading in a country club pool up to my ankles for a photo shoot last week. Considering that it feels like full blown summer here already, the water was cold!

Love this post Dave, so funny! Just as long as you know whats what hey!! I reckon you could have pulled off a pink computer case, a real fashion statement!
