adios, 2008!

Aye Dios mio! 2008 is almost OUTTIE!! I am sad to see it go... it was a great year- but I am even more excited to ring in 2009...

I am working on a recap of the year- there are so many things to celebrate both personally and professionally.... but I'll just touch on two of my professional favorites... one being the addition of my new team mate, Mr. Mike Romano! The second being the addition of my MVP, and Mike's MVP I'd wager as well... our fabulous fabulous D3's...

Having the eye and knowing what makes a good image to begin with is the A #1 component of everything. Let me just get that out there... but. But. BUT. butt. :)

When you have the tools to get what is in your head out, the way you actually see it... well hells bells people! That's awesome!

Whether it's the D3 or the new Canon or even a Diana camera, who cares as long as it's the D3! Just kidding. Really, as long as YOU can find the tool that is best for YOU, then HOLLA!!

So, with that.... here are two favorites, SO FAR!
Silly silly Mike! He makes the day go by even faster with his schenanigans and tomfoolery!

And the woman of the hour....my girl, my D3...! And if you think you see a new 50mm 1.4 G crazy awesome lens here you would be RIGHT!!

I've just gotten a response from Nikon USA after emailing them your latest post. Upon reading of your passion, love, and zest for the D3, they've decided to fire Ashton Kutcher as their spokeswh@re and hire C10Eyck!!! How exciting - you're gonna be famous! ;)

Rockin' new lens by the way! Yay! :)

LOL--my eyes just played a funny trick on me. Reading Val's post I swore for a secind she wrote "I look forward to seeing your crap." I swear! The letters got jumbled for a moment.

Anyway--where was I? Ah, yes. your stellar year. Thanks for the laughs and the inspiration. I am wickedly jealous of the good times and the talent of the TenEyck-Romano Dream Team. Happy New Year!
