Why Not to Steal from a Photographer

My dad and I went out photographing yesterday. Our last stop was the Quaking Bog (pictures to follow another day). After an hour in the bog, we returned to the car and discovered someone else had visited it. While waiting for the police to arrive, we took pictures. Imagine that...

What they did:

Passenger window was nicely shattered.


What they got:
My 1 1/2 year old phone.
Phone charger (they were kind enough to put the cap back on the adaptor outlet after unplugging the charger.)
Camera case containing: telephoto lens, wide angle lens, a flash, a filter set, a magnifier lens set. The magnifier set was prehistoric. The other items, including the case were cheap, generic items...nice to have, but certainly not cost-effective for the thief.


What they missed:

My purse was in the back seat - semi-hidden but still visible from outside.
In the console inches from where my phone sat, there lived a checkbook, work badge, and a stash of credit cards and gift cards.

They took the most expensive filter OUT of the camera case. Thanks guys!

The trunk had plenty of power tools worth way more than the items stolen.


And a few more glass pictures...because I thought they looked cool.

My K-5 Bud's Shower

Saturday was Bridal Shower day for my wonderful friend, Jess. Below are some non-people pictures from the event (remember...I don't shoot people).
