Subliminal messages. Again.

I have decided, after much thought and musings, that I need would like to upgrade my camera! It's not a snap decision, mind you. I have not been happy with lots of shots on my 600D, and a few examples recently have tipped me over the edge... And once you start looking... Also, there seems to be a rash of blippers getting new cameras.

Anyway, I couldn't be bothered going to the pond, but just came home, and who was outside playing? Yes. Wee Brodie. I couldn't resist. It was either him or a macro of some past-their-best tulips. I was slightly safer behind the tiny fence, which he can jump when he puts his mind to it. And obviously he likes to chew it...
