In regards of the next calendar meeting:
I'm glad I already had my share of light-painting experiments.. so I wont miss too much this meeting. I havent been around for a long time, but after this last missed meeting I'm finally gonna have time to attend the EF events again. Really looking forward. Enjoy this one guys and gals.

I would so love to do that kind of portraiture shootings demanded by harry's hair design to gather some experience. A shame it's hard to find a customer who'd care to invest in equipment since I don't have what I would need yet.

A crispy nice sigma portrait lens and 1, preferably 2 of the new nissin professional flash models. *sigh*.. Those dates during the mid of the week are quite a tough one anyway. I wish some good fun and luck to the person actually going for that work oppportunity. I'm probably gonna read some more about portraits, and save up for sigmas and nissins.

Begga is absolutely right; At first you really think that new cam body plus some regular kit is gonna last for ever... And now? - I am being mind-boggled by 2-3 types of prime lenses constantly... not even talking about the regularly needed accesories. :S Photography can be a true curse, sometimes. But I'm glad it still has so many upsides; Finally managed to up some of my more recent shots, comments and harsh critics are always welcome:
