Nature Strikes Back

noelladsa‘s Nikon D70 has been acting weird and I had given it to the Nikon service center for repair. I just got a call back from them and it seems some ants have entered the D70 and have shorted some circuits. In his own words .. “We just disinfected your D70 using pesticides”.

Ironic considering my D70 became famous for photographing ants.

    ah, I knew the mention of ants would bring out the witties…

    remember the ghastly title Deccan Herald gave my article about you…”capturing wildlife in lens” or something like that….well, that seems to have been truer than I realize,only you, or Noella, have been using the camera body as well!

    … this is depanti…

    One contemplating over a nikon and the other owning a canon. Should make a nice story.

    hmmm… maybe those ants got angry that she didnt take their photo and decide to get it done themselves. 😉
