Little notes from the Universe




Obviously the universe is sending out quirky hints to let me know that something is on its way. In this case that something being the desired camera.




I was in Merryland again and it so happened that the Knittee had to be at his club for a practice appointment, but his partner was completely under the weather and therefore couldn't play. Coincidentally a guy walked in, who had never been there before, and got introduced to the Knittee by one of the employees. The employee who does all the photo artwork for the club btw, and who uses a 5D, the bigger brother of my dream camera. So this new "member" played several games with the Knittee. During our conversation we found out, that he is a professional photographer and he recommended the 7D to me. But he also said, that it's really the eye and not the equipment, that makes a good photographer. I thought that was very encouraging, not having any educated skills on that field. Was this a sign?




Obviously the universe was trying to convey something to my death ears, so it pushed the message through a little harder. When I packed my bags the Knittee saw the boarding pass for my first flight, that I was about to throw away. The seat number was ...... well as you can guess now ..... 7D.




I had totally overlooked the fact, being too busy with taking pictures on that flight. What an irony. Of course I kept it and put it into my magical box. Oh, you don't know about the magical box yet. But this is another story for another post.
