Hey all!! Long time since I posted anything. Many issues.... health, work, lack of creative juices and the same ole snuff box of a cam which was not allowing me to look any further. This image is from my new camera a SONY CYBERSHOT R1 and there is a story behind how I got it......... I met a wonderful person on net who soon became my buddy. It was just 3 weeks of our buddyhood and it was a sunday, I met her online around 10 pm online as usual and I told her about a dream I had when I had my noon nap. It was about a parcel that arrived and inside was a all new camera. I told her........ thank god , atleast I had this dream or else I used to feel.... I cant even dream of owning this cam. I was referring about Sony Cybershot R1. Soon the topic of discussion changed and we were chatting and suddenly she threw a link at me and asked..... is this the cam you dreamt about??? I checked it and said , yeah this is the one. She said, what good a buddy am I, if I can't fullfill my buddys dream. I knew she was kinda serious and I gracefully accepted her offer and told her that I couldn't accept it as it was very costly cam. She took it the wrong way and got upset over it. It took me two days to convience her that it was wonderful of her to have made the offer but as a buddy it would be wonderful of me to decline it. Leme add, she is quite a stubborn girl and she had her way. She quit chatting with me....... she quit appearing online until I gave up. It's only after she bought the cam and sent it to me did I come to know some details about her. I had talked with her on phone but knew very little about her as she was not too comfortable telling about herself. Even till date I do not know her real name........ all I know is that she is a Surgeon working in a certain city in India and I even know the Institution where she works for she has offered me to come over for a checkup/ medical treatment as I am suffering from some Renal problem and eye problem. I also came to learn that this doctor with a very decent pay packet doesn't spend much on herself and spends half her earning on buying medicines for poor patients. 3 cheers to such lovely human beings on this earth. I wish her the very best in life and may this world be flooded with many like her. This first image is dedicated to my Buddy!!! :O)) SNAKEY
