I said goodbye to an old friend last week...

I have your photos bookmarked I am a fan.

I say don't part with the lens...years down the road..your going to want it.

I packed my Nikon and it is hiding from me again. Once again..a search. We are about to have a new baby in the family and I have to find it soon! Please send show up camera vibe.

You've got vibes coming your way!

I'm at peace with the decision to let that lens go. It seemed more of a shame that I wasn't using it and had a hole in the wide-angle department. But if/when the time comes to start back with the birds again, I've still got most of that money tucked aside and will consider something a bit quicker focusing so I can nail the birds as they're flying .
