Photographic Accessories

Note: the following post contains a lot of photographic jargon, you may not want to read on, if so, enjoy the photos.

So I have some new toys that I recently bought, they're all slowly trickling through my mailbox to me. Each day a new parcel comes and it's like a lottery I know that I'm going to win except I don't know the prize. One by one the couriers bring them to me, starting first with the parts I need least followed by the parts I need most at the end (SD cards, how can I shoot without a SD card?)

So enough with the slow torture, here's what was awaiting usage.




After gathering what I could today I was left with the dreaded fate of no SD card to test out my new toy. So I had to borrow my mums hidden SD card. With minimal shots available from the measly 2GB I mucked around with the camera.

My fish vapor died 2 weeks ago, he was my first fighting fish in a long time, I owned him for about 5 or so months. He was my favorite fish until I got the big tank. RIP Vapor.
Shot using the D7000 with 60mm 2.8 Micro with a SB-700 to light. He's dried like that.

Mars & Back

My fish Mars and his partner in their new tank. They have their own houses, Mars lives inside Squidward's house and the girl lives under a tree :3

Yes that's James Blake playing in the background.

Vapor Trails

My little fishie has a new name... 'Vapor' Thanks to Jay Em Kay, we now have a new name :)

Things to buy him for Christmas:

• A new tank
• A waterscape
• A mate/sparring partner

Note him next to my computer. On the left of my iMac next to the warm modem and wireless transceiver. He's pretty happy I think! Swims around unlike Vivian's fish :P

Hooked

A new love. Un-named. I'm unsure of what to call him, I'm waiting to get him a new tank later on this year. Crowned Betta Spenden (Siamese Fighting Fish)

Hooks & Splinters

Sats & Sunday, it was a messy day. No sleep on Saturday and then trekking to Bobbin's head for some fishing action. I really want to go fly fishing now :)

I caught 4 fish, Steven caught 2 and Raymond caught 1. There were so many fish jumping outta the water that I must go fly fishing :) We got there at 6am and it was foggy and beautiful. I nearly stepped on a snake and we saw 2 giant lizard things.

I got home and died. The next morning (today) my sister's fish iSnack2.0 died. We watched the last Jason Bourne movie in remembrance. RIP iSnack2.0. I have plenty of painting to continue.
