My birthday is at the end of June, and I asked for a 40D which Sarah agreed to if I completed my 366 A Picture A Day project (c’mon July 9th!).

Sadly, my trusty Canon 10D took a ride down the stairs yesterday without me, landing at the bottom with the lens in a couple pieces and the body no longer recognizing lenses attached to it. (Note to self: hey – use the strap! don’t carry so much!) That camera was my first digital SLR, I got it for Christmas in 2003. I’ve shot over 20,000 photos with it in just the past year, probably 50-60,000 overall. The 10D has joined my other old cameras on a shelf in our family room – my photo and movie hardware on display.

Anyway, I got my birthday present early this year and I’m very excited about using it.
Sad day / Happy day.
