a catastrophic event has occurred… i lost TWO lenses (and i only have three) in a heartbeat. they fell out of my bag and on to concrete. my 50mm f/1.4 is no more. some choice swear words were said…

so, this one is at 35mm. i am less happy with it, but there you are… working with the one lens i have left until (hopefully) my insurance claim goes through. so, whilst i WAS at peace at this particular moment, the ones leading up to it were less than peaceful!!
