i got one today.

i too love small beautiful things. so a #1 priority was a lens that let’s me look at little bugs and tiny flowers.

i haven’t bought myself anything in years; this feels like an exciting adventure. i even got a neat little camera bag with protected compartments for the various pieces of gear. and it’s small and light.

there’s guilt at having such a nice thing. but i know how i am with things. i will live with it for so many hours it will simply become a part of me. like my watch, my bike, my old jeep. and at some point i will feel silly for having not done this sooner.

but the camera wasn’t ready; and i wasn’t ready.

today i was ready. little flowers and bugs, here i come!
