Saying Hi

Postby HappyFotographer on Mon Jan 03, 2005 6:03 pm

Sorry if this is the wrong spot to put this.

I just found this site, via a mention at DPreview.

My man purchased a D70 for me for Christmas, haven't really done all that much yet........still in shock about actually owning one.

Will spend a bit of time reading, but just wanted to pop up my head and say hi.

Welcome HappyFotographer - gee you have some man there hold onto him at all costs and start getting lens lusts as we all have here on this forum.

Remember it is the eye that is the first step towards a photograph. . .

Now that you have your D70, just memorise the following phrase to say to your man as often as possible:

"If you love me, you'll buy me a <insert lens here>"

Thanks for the welcome, and I had lens lust long before I even got my hands on the D70......

Looking forward to finding out what this beauty is really capable of....and Nnnnsic, I have an even better guilt trip.....it's called currently preggers with child number 4...."Look what you've done to me.....again....." LOL
