What a World We Live In

Wow...I just realized I forgot all about this blog site. My bad memory tends to get the better of me when $5,000 in photo gear that I intended to use to complete this site was stolen from the trunk of my car the day after I started it. Funny thing is that even though this demoralized me a lot initially, in the end it might have been the best thing to happen to me because it made me appreciate photography even more. I realize now that photography is what I am meant to do so here I am starting over. I have a new Nikon D700 body and in a few days I will have new flash and 24-70mm lens. Time to start from day one and get freaky with my photography. Lesson learned here is not to trust anyone, especially myself because I never had any of my gear insured. I still can't insure it now since I spent every dime replacing my gear and will now be going hungry for a few months. But what is it that makes a mediocre photographer great? Sometimes it is being hungry and now is my time to shine.
