Christmas wishes iv

Posted by Ron (Saint Louis, United States) on 26 December 2008 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

Merry Christmas to all my Aminus3 friends ... may the miracles of this holy season fill your heart with joy!

If you look closely in the center band of the ornament you can see my reflection with my new lens ... a Canon EF 50 mm f/1.2L.

Good luck with the new lens - but if this is anything to go by, you won't need it!

Like a kid in a candy store, I can see you are jumping for joy. It is one of my next buys, a very fast single lens like this one. Have fun with your new toy.

So, did Santa bring the lens or did you buy it? LOL Anyway, have fun with it!

@Monte Stevens: Santa, sort of, brought the lens ... half of the cost was paid for by gifts from the two congregations that I serve and the other half was paid for by an honorarium from a wedding last night ... I bet you didn't know that Santa's nickname was Ron!
