Default Jim's Camera here...my time to shine!

Jim wouldn't enter me into the weekly assignment contest, so I had to do it myself. Here's me in this week's assignment: My Camera

Hi, Mods. Jim's camera here. He's asleep right now, so I thought I'd dig myself out of that stupid bag....and don't even get me started on how I got on this tripod!! Could he have gotten a taller one????

Anyway, now it's MY time to shine! This is MY self portrait. Behind me is my favorite shot of a tree that "Jim" took, which he may have taken credit for on DPS. Don't believe a word he says---all he did was push the &%@#$ button and put me back in that stuffy bag. God, I hate Tamrac...and WHAT is that smell???

He's apparently won a few contests with that tree picture. All I got was a couple lines in the exif data. I'll show him...check out the exif data below!! Who's laughing now, baldy??? LOL

Anyway, here's a shot of me in the mirror. I flipped the image in the software to make it look like another camera took a shot of me. He's got this really sexy little Sony PnS---but I can never get her alone, if you know what I mean...so I had to take it myself...

Enjoy!!
Jims D3 (1 of 1)

...so, if he puts any more pics up on DPS, you know where they came from. He's on an ego trip, so just humor him, okay?


EXIF Data
Camera: Nikon D3 (Jim Sucks)
Exposure: 0.25 sec (1/4)
Aperture: f/10.0
Focal Length: 85 mm
ISO Speed: 4000

Hehe! You know Jim, if anyone's camera could dig itself out of a bag, it would be yours!

Thanks, Nicky! He talks about you all the time. He's shown me some of your work, too. If you wouldn't mind putting in a good word for me with your camera....

Thanks, Susan. You take great shots. I'm trying to steer Jim toward taking more kid shots, but he won't listen to reason. Maybe you can get through to him!!

Hello Jim's Camera, it's nice to meet you, and what a beautiful background you chose.

Funny idea Bud !
