Hi Jeff, I wish that I can afford the Daughter but unfortunately it's not mine.

Yeah, you are right. The father is a Thai.

By the way, I heard that you got yourself a Son recently, right?

I'm wondering too.

How about posting 5 of the best pictures taken with each of the above combos. Maybe the point of the thread will become clearer, it could be:

(1) Good equipment complements a photographer's skill.
(2) I can't take good photographs even with expensive equipment, so i take photographs of my equipment instead.

Wondering if it will be (1) or (2)

Well-said Nick!

Some people just got too serious in life, no sense of humour at all or light hearted humour.

We are not showing off the gear for those who thought or wondered.

That's funny!!

I suppose there's nothing wrong with appreciating a good piece of technology this way.

Like the blue background, but the pictures seems under exposed.
