My shiny new 24-70 2.8 get's called "The Monster" a lot, because that's what it feels like next to the 50 1.8, 18-55 IS, and 85 1.8.


However that's not really a name. Only my computers are named, at least since I switched to Unix-based operating systems that expect some hostname (and neither "localhost" nor "Colin's MacBook" are particularly practical).


Then again, a computer surely qualifies as photography equipment … either via PhotoShop, or via PhotoBooth ;-)


Ciao, Colin

I named my compound bows Emmy Lou and Esmerelda. The newest one hasn't chosen a name yet. Neither have the long bow or the recurve.

Ahhh good to see another archer amongst us. I haven't shot in about2 years but was right into it for many years. I shot for Merlin archery for 2 years and managed a 1st in the IFAA worlds twice (junior freestyle - 4th in mens the following year so wasn't quite up to the standard). Then I went off to university and studied and it all slowly slipped away.


You've inspired me now Colin... I'm gonna drag the old girl out and have a shoot directly!!!

Ah, then I look up to you! I'm working my way up to mediocre. But it's fun, and keeps me in touch with an interesting crowd. I should combine it with the photography more often.


If you're in the Santa Cruz Area, maybe we can collaborate, or at least shoot stuff.


I wants me some pigs!
