What to do, what to do?

Sniff, by Oz

Cows make great photography subjects, quite unlike cats. Cows move very slowly, so no worries about that blurry cat head shot. They seem very interested in you, unlike our feline friends. They also provide great (and perhaps gross) photographic opportunities in which the cows will lick other cows urine will peeing. Yeah, I’ll spare you that shot.

When I’m not thinking about cow urine, I spend my time trying to figure out whether not my next photographic investment should be on a nice flash, or that dreamy Sigma 10mm lens a friend let me play with last week. I already have 3 lenses in my arsenal, so it would be logical to pick up a flash. I know if I were to go that route, I’d have to spend a good week reading up on all the… ‘flashy stuff’? I know nothing of flash, I can’t even get the built on flash on my D40x to do what I want.

So flash? Or Lens?

If I had your lenseses, I’d go with the nice flash thingy, too. I can’t help but think that the answer would actually be to figure out precisely WHAT niceness you want. Once material comparisons could be made I’d think the decision would be fairly cut and dry. Unlike this cow’s face:
