    Wink Ausphotography has a slave! What should we do with him (KIWI)?? ?? ??

    Seems Leviticus 25 - 44:45 means that we have a slave amongst us, to do with what we want.

    44 : Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves.
    45 : You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property.

    WOOHOO, So now we own KIWI, what should we make him do?

    So KIWI is a slave?

    What are we talking here? is he a radio-triggered E-TTL metered slave? Or just the optical wireless-triggered sort? My advice is to keep him in strict line-of-sight and charge him up every now and then with a short high-voltage jolt right in the hot shoe.

    It's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards.

    Rick, I reckon we should get him to muck out the stables.

    Then do all the forum statistics people asked about C&C in threads

    And then can I borrow him to carry my camera gear when I make an onerous hike? Or maybe (and better yet) lets all the landscape photographers go on a joint trip, and he can be the pack horse :P. Better than wasting him taking photos

    Weeeeelllllllll, I have so much brushcutting and spraying to do, I could keep him (it???) occupied for days and days and days!!!!

    But given the hard work he and you have done over the last few days, I'll give him a couple free days - to fix things up on site before he comes here and does the rest of my work!

    I hope Kiwis don't freeze as it's mighty cold in some parts of NZ right now.

    These shots were sent to me by a friend who lives in Christchurch, and these are of his backyard this morning!!
