It's been that kind of day.

One final down (statistics), one to go (accounting, tomorrow). I'm exhausted and my brain feels like JELL-O®, but it's not all bad news.

I found out today that I have my second-ever photo gig! I'll be photographing a college basketball game between my alma mater and my current school! Down on the floor! Rental Lens! Total n00b!

Oh, and I'll have that lens for a whole week, so maybe I can do some craziness with it for Whiskerino while it's in my possession.

Looking forward to the new lens.

Team rental lens! Ok, I'm not actually on that team. But I've used that plan before on bids for shoots that didn't work out.

@wondermade : Well I got this gig before deciding to rent a lens - but how can I shoot a basketball game with only my 50mm or the crappy old Quantaray zoom lens I have?

Naturally I had to rent a Nikon AF VR 70-200mm f/2.8D :-)

@rolfbastard : well it's just the first semester of my MBA program. I'm not exactly looking to be in accounting OR statistics :-)

Oh, and lens correction - it's actually the AF-S VR Zoom-NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G IF-ED. Man, that's a long-freakin' model designation.
