Saving for a new gear

Trying to lay aside some money for a new two digit EOS camera.
Well, seeing how fast things goes, i suppose it's a long way to go.

Another few bags like this one and you will soon be there mate. Excellent capture and very creative. Love the detail and the background for this shot is just right, the contrast is super. Very nice work Drax. Hope you fill the bags up quickly.

Jake.

Marvelous picture, great lighting and textures. Keep saving those coins and resist the temptations to dip in and take a few to go have a beer!

Looks like something you might find at the end of the rainbow. Great idea Drax!
