¡Felices fiestas! Joyeuses fêtes! Best “holiday wishes” to all! And a Merry Christmas for those who are into such things (personally, I’m having a decidedly un-Christmasy Christmas this year…).
Life’s all about sacrifices: I ruined a UV filter not long after taking this shot; a hot firework fragment landed on it! So that’s why they tell you to always protect your lens with a filter…
Have a healthy, creative year in 2008 (no need to wait until then to start!)… Listen to music (like love, it’s even better if you make it); be obscenely generous; stop buying stuff you don’t need; take a step to the left in the reduce-reuse-recycle hierarchy; quit making unnecessary trips to the washroom; start using your full brain (not just the 10% you thought you could slide by on); enjoy your fingernails while they’re still growing. Really, you have no more excuses! Now, stop whining that the turkey is making you sleepy…
