p.3 #5 · Canon 5D Mark 3 - Official Image Thread | |
Picked up mine yesterday. Having already tried one from the shop and having spent a CPS day with 5D3s and 1DXs, I somehow got the superstitious notion in my head that my very own had to be initiated with the very first shot being of a glorious duck, to bless the camera and ensure perfect shots for the rest of its life.
Yesterday it was already too late, and besides it was raining cats 'n dogs, so this morning, in rain and gray skies, I went to a nearby lake, hoping to spot a perfectly pearled rain-dropped drake. Hearing a low quack-quack, I crept to the edge of the water and promptly cracked my head on a low hanging limb. The only duck anywhere around, took off like a streak to the middle of the lake, quacking furiously at me and my cracked head... so I went home.
The sun is now out again, so this afternoon I'll go down to the river.
... to be continued...
