Counting pennies

Wednesday 19th January 2005 - Day 32

I'm going through a serious illness... I think it is known as NAS. I have this compulsion to pick up any photo magazine, or read online articles, about photo gear and WANT it so badly. Later stages of the illness mean that there has to be surgical removal of money, real or virtual.

In an attempt to offset any severe pain at a later date, I feel obliged to investigate many forms of asset. Piggy here knows what is coming, he has seen this all before. I think he is telling me something.

No pigs were harmed during the making of this photograph

NAS is Nikon Aquisition Syndrome.... closely related to CAS, PAS, MAS, KAS, etc, etc


other sizes: small medium large auto

Poor piggy, I think he's in for it! Don't break the bank! I think your disease is contagious, I've got it too!

Oh, great comments Lee! I assure you the pain of the condition go deeper when you receive college tutition bills... no hope of ever satisfying the condition cause there's no longer a a pig bank ;) Great shot Lee.

Lee, I'm so glad you've explained my disorder! I keep lusting after one more lens, a new Photoshop action, more magazines. Poor piggy-does he have enough for me too?

When I saw the thumbnail of this image on the PaD Gallery list, my first thought was "someone is anxious for a new lens!" :-)
