The Thing That Made Her Wish She Had A Camera

avatar

Four days ago, It was a bright morning, the sun was shiny but felt so comfortable on my skin. The air I breathed felt so fresh that made me keep on inhaling and exhaling for some seconds.

I took a little work in the neighborhood, it seems silent everywhere I look. And it felt all like this just what I needed. Quietness and calmness, to release all the unwanted energy in me and recharge myself with positivity.



As I walked further, I sighted those pigeons playing around their owner's house.

And a thought came through my mind to take their photographs but then I didn't have a camera with a good lens. All I got is my Tecno Spark 8.

I thought for a while and decided to photograph them just like that with my phone. Besides it is not every day I get to see pigeons in their few numbers.

This guy right up there was heading to the water pipe ahead as I managed to get a shot.

When he was at the water pipe, he was paying so much attention to me just a few seconds before flying away.

These two other guys come for the water as well.

This guy here was still relaxing in their cage but got shy and flew away after a few minutes.

At the top roof, these war veterans positioned well here, I could have had a beautiful shot but my phone camera is limited to short-distance focus.

The photo section ended and I headed back home. Though not the coolest photos I could present, my time with the pigeons was amazing and refreshing.

At home, I reminisce about my camera situation, took my buy list and still noticed that buying the camera is still not top on the list thanks to the crazy *ss inflation in my country that has made me cut down In my expenses to the barest minimum and shift my focus to investing as much as I can.



I can only double up and continue to work hard, invest more, and in the future I will be able to afford a decent camera. I may not be a professional photographer but my love for photographing as a hobby is out of this world.

I'm just going to pen this down on the chain and hope that someday when I look back, I will smile and say, oh, that was when I wished I had a camera with a good lens lol., for now, I will put my thought into the universe and hope that it works in my favor.

I've been In a similar situation where I felt like having a camera with amazing lens would have been great. And you're right, the cost of things now adays are very much over the roof.

Your camera still did justice to the birds in the short range.

Good morning @wongi and thanks for your comment❤🥰. !luv

They are just too beautiful for me not to photograph them, having a professional camera could have been amazing but this inflation is making me push the camera thing down my buy list.
