~:[CH14 - Day 104]:~ Timing

 
~:[CH14 - Day 104]:~ Timing

My lens was showing signs of wear. I was a little worried as there are a number of upcoming shoots that will be using it. However, just as it was breaking down, I found an opportunity to replace it. A student at USC was selling a number of things (including this lens) as she was going home soon. She hadn't used it, but based on everything (including the price), I was a bit suspicious. When arriving, I checked it out and everything actually checked out. I tested it, we completed the deal despite a few delays, and we both were happy. Sometimes, things fall into place. You need something and just at that moment, the right person or thing drops in. It typically doesn't work out that way, but every once in awhile it does. Never be too trusting, but at the same time, have faith that at times, things can work out. I was cautious today, but also open minded to the fact that things could actually work out, which they did. While I won't be using this lens in the states (at least for now), I am prepared for the number of shoots I have lined up this summer and now, I am not hesitant to commit to a few more shoots that would require this lens. Today, someone was looking down on me and help me find just what I was looking for. The timing couldn't have been more perfect.
