Ok, so I?ve this funny story...
A few weeks ago I went to a friend?s weding and happend to visit one of this big malls in the middle of nowhere which in fact happend to have a camera store :) So I asked the salesman for the chepeast reflex camera and here I was in front of a Refubrished Pentax K110D which took me about half an hour to decide wheather or not to take it back home with me.
After I came back, first thing I did was to compare the lens that came along with this camera, with the lenses of an old -and when I say old I really mean it- camera of my dad, a nice Chinon Reflex that made testimony of my childhood. So here I was, doing this comparing stuff and then.... yeah, you can guess, ALL the lenses of this old camera fitted into my new Pentax! A nice 28-210 w/macro Vivitar, a 28 mm still vivitar, and a super wide x.42 macro night vision lens, not to mention this really super cool flash. As good as it gets! I placed the macro over the 28 mm and made this shot, with almost no retouch besides the color balance. I?m so, so so pleased about this. I regreat a little for not taking the Pentax K100 with image stabilizer, but you know, who was gonna know! I really hope this lenses travel with me the next twenty years, as my dad?s camera did :)

"Active Assignment Weekly - Insanity"
ASSIGNMENT: ... here is comes - Insanity!!
It's time to open pandora's box and bring out the madness.
The submissions should be pics that depict insanity/madness of any kind and in any form. The theme could be funny or serious - total creative freedom on that ...
Dare: To bring out the theme clearly. Looking at the pic, it should be evident that someone/something has lost his/her/its mind. Once again, "try to" keep photoshop usage to the minimum.
A particular kind of insanity: SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder); The cause: long periods of bleak, sunless, gray, drizzly days and nights of diffused light, drizzle-saturated air, and cold, muddy, puddles and potholes. The effect: obscured vision (sometimes even vertigo-where's the horizon?) which no reading magnifiers, or graduated lenses can remedy; a marrow-seeking, penetrating chill that weighs on the shoulders causing the neck to retract, tortoise-like, into a cocoon of neon-striped, weather-proof (but not totally) outerwear.
WIT: a walk outside in mid-November (because I have a dog that NEEDS to walk) ... and a bit of condensation on the lens of my camera. Photo cropped.
