I did a search and there doesn't seem to be a thread about camera nightmares. Of which I've had a few.. The one where i'm in a boat out on Lake Lowell when I see my camera bag floating to the bottom, the one where I open my bag to find it empty as i'm preparing for some incredible shoot. And Last night/ early this morning I had a very vivid dream about my niece smashing my 1-4L on the floor by the front door of my aunt's house.
Ofcourse it started in my condo three hours away. My cousin's wife and Kaed's mom were putting together a puzzle. Shandell made some comment about crazy camera gear and how it doesn't make any sense. (very common in my family). The next thing I know the doorbell rings so I get up to answer it and see a two year old Kaed with my 30D with the 1-4L in her little hands (she's four and a half now) she makes it to the front door before I can stop her and then I hear this little smacking sound. Like highheels on hardwood. I pick up the camera, with the hood still attached, look inside and think just for a minute that it's only the filter. But, when I take the filter off it's the whole dang lens.. My aunt, sweet though she is tells me to put it right in the brand new box that miraculously appears in her hands and she's going to run it to Idaho Camera, by far the stupidest place to take my lens to.. And then I wake up. And turn on all the lights get a drink of water and go through my entire camera bag, I don't even stop until I've counted all my memory cards..
I'm just wondering if this is yet another Sari's nuts moments or if anybody has gone through something similar. Now, I'm very aware that they're objects and it bugs me a little bit that I can't come up with anything a bit more serious to have a nightmare about.... But, all the same I want to know, who's done this..?
