    I bought myself, well I sent my people helper to the store to buy me a couple of cigarette lighters.
    ... OK FINE, In the past I've use cigarette lighters to shine a path to replace a blown fuse for example ...

    But Here's a NEW one for me ...

    A 'lighter' with a built in 'Flash-light' my goodness what will THEY think of NEXT ... What a 'BRIGHT' idea!
    .. and apparently depending on the colour of the lighter determines the colour of the LED, LOL --->

    I bust OPEN this Lighter to get at it's LED Flashlight
    ... AND because I had nothing better to do at the TIME which by coincidence is the ALSO the reason for this 'EDiT' [​IMG] LMAO

    Anyhowz before dismissing the 'WASTE' too the old proverbial garbage dump I wanted to see how the 'Flashlight' was designed and built. For what there ALL worth as an excuse the end result of this little project might even prove useful in and around my workbench as a quick and easy source of light ...

    LOL, to extend upon the 'excuse'
    ... Also my dear Yorick just fur FUN I fill our 'white Space' with nothing but 'poetic license'
    ... LMAO, playing with WORDS, it's like a JOKE and weird little hobby in itself
    ... Thus I will post the military definition of 'SIR' which is where NO gender preconception is implied ...
    So here goes  ;) Sirs, to certainly 'BORE' one only to DEATH with YET another mindless cliché I offer but YET again an old favorite "[size=1.2em]Reduce, Reuse, Recycle[/size]"

    Also it is a clear cut case of my cheap Point'n Shoot being better for the J.o.B than my presumably better and more expensive Nikon D90. The Sony CyberShot is my only camera that supports 'MACRO' ... HeHe, but my humility is without bounds so only to BRAG and being the VOICE of the O·pin·ion·at·ed,  this is the macro lens I am looking to purchase, this zoom lens being teh  Nikon AF 80-200 f/2.8 Macro which COST just over a grand. This Glass is certainly on my short (wish) LIST and I'm determined to OWN this technological marvel of our time at some point in the NEAR future! Well Nikon LENSES are the reasons why people thus myself BUY 'Nikon' over ANY other ain't it!?! Others may make 'better' cameras (bodies and they certainly MIGHT be better) but certainly NOT better lenses ... HOWEVER for the absolute 'BEST' we don't by 'Asian' we BUY 'German' designed

    Regardless at this time given what I have currently to shoot with ...
    ... the CyberShot was the better choice (actually this was the only choice) for this photo opportunity
    ... If looking at the result maybe ya vud-all agree, das boot?
