I'm back! With a new vision :)

I have been away for a month or so because so many things have been happening…

1. I finally got my Lasik Surgery and I can now see 20/10, suddenly it’s like my life is in HD :)

2. I opened my first photo business in California, USA: Creative Shot ; the website is almost there, still need to work on a few things

3. I just received my new Canon 21MP 1Ds Mark III, and this weekend has been the happiest shooting in my life, this camera is just amazing! All the pictures that I will post starting today will most likely come from this camera.

Anyway I missed the community, thanks to all of you who left a comment or added me to your favorites.

Cheers,
-Christophe

    Thank you all!
    @Cvail73 and photokc, I wish I’d done Lasik five years ago… Glasses, contact lenses, nothing will ever come close to the perfect vision that you can get with Lasik.

    The laser only operates for 15s in each eye, and then you need to rest for about 4 hours after the operation, and take it easy for a week. As for side effects my eyes are a little bit dryer than usual but that should go away after 3 months.

    If you’re thinking about doing it just take the CustomWave Lasik, that’s the latest technology that builds a 3d map of your eye before the surgery. That improves your chance to have a better than perfect vision…

    I had Lasik done about 8 years ago. Never looked back! Well worth the money.

    20/10 and 21MP…..amazing coincidence, what a great combination. Happy Shooting with “all” of your new lenses.
