My third time in Thailand... must be a charm !

my new Nikon D70s

As it's a picture blog, I should tell you about my camera... Ok, I splurged at Sim Lim Square (Singapore), and got myself the Nikon D70s... it was a hard choice as I was very close to getting the 8 MegaPixel Olympus E-300... (see http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/olympuse300/page21.asp) but the D70s just felt more robust in my hands. I will miss my trusty Olympus E-20...

Linley, cheerful as usual.
