Santa pulled a swifty on me - told me I was going to get photographic book(s) but actually got a day of driving rally cars instead!

Yep, got a bigger better Giotto Rocket,
a collapsible flash diffuser
and a lovely twist-through reflector/diffuser that will be very useful with my macro work.
Thank you Santa :)

It was a fairly lean Christmas photography-wise - I got Joe McNally's "The Moment It Clicks". Good book though, I'm quite enjoying it.

Santa got tanked and forgot what I wanted so he left me cash instead. Nikon AFS 35mm 1.8 arrives on Monday.

I got Scott Kelby's Photoshop CS4 book, lots of reading to do, it's a huge book.

In the lead-up I had strongly hinted about this one too but instead I got a 4WD book of maps, trips etc that I actually already own :o Oh well....

I scored a couple of Ted's Camera store gift vouchers! So I guess they will get turned into photography stuff eventually.

Santa was generous and wise - finally my 70-200 f4 is usm, but my suggestion was to wait for the post xmas sales - doing the round robin bartering this week.
