First love

The day you became mine was one of the best in my life.

The joy of holding you in my hands, the joy of drawing you close to me 🙄

That touch, that move, the focus .. what more could I ask for?

Sun, snow or rain .. I shall always protect you.

My dear SLR, my life!

P.S: And so, as the wife runs from the kitchen to the dining, the living to the bedroom,
checking things and cleaning them up for the move, the husband is busy securing his prized possession .. the SLR! Hmmpf!

  5. he he your hubby has company here, only difference is it is his truck. anywhere we’ve gone in the last 5 years, he has heaps of pictures of that in poses you have to see to believe and if I really search among those hundreds, I consider myself lucky if at least a couple of mine are there, huh!

  7. oH Swaruuuuu,
    wish I was physically close to you to pinch you hard and perform a “same pinch ” ritual..
    Cause I have got a SLR fanatic here..whose 1 st love is car, 2 nd love is camera,3 rd love is ..some other random electronic/mechanical thingie…
    and last comes me !! 😦 (or so i declare being a nautanki)
    solution: if cant fight, join them!So here I am shouting to glory @ Grand prix circuit( something I was clueless till I met this man), snatching the camera and taking the best pictures,trying my hand at breaking every gadget/mechanical stuff around me knowingly/unknowingly…
    hence supporting him in all ways I can! 😛

  9. I thought I will read a juicy love story of both of you, but here, I see Su’s love story with his SLR….too bad!

  10. You should be happy that he has not started his love on lenses yet. Wait till he gets on to the lens mode :D. Maybe you can gift him a “L” or 100mm Macro lens to kick start his appetite for lenses.

    To be fair we don’t like gossiping like you gals. We don’t have patience for all those soaps. We don’t have the color understanding like you do. We see a blue, but you girls would see light, navy, dark, aqua, turquoise and all those other stuffs. Not to mention the other obvious hobbies you gals have :D. So, we compensate with SLR, car, bike, cricket, football. Fair enough I guess.

    You know what I asked boss other day I rang him?. Hope your SLR is safe :$. He nodded and said, yep all safe and dandy. Robber would have not known the value of the SLR he said. Not many would understand the value of the SLR though. Only those who possess them and love them :D.

    Nice post. Enjoy madi.
