Basketball Tournament

The wonderful Infosys Mysore campus hosted an intra DC basketball tournament in the late August. There was 10 teams in two pools. Since Mysore is predominantly a Training center there was 7 trainee batch and 3 development center team. I was playing for one of the development center (black). It was nice to be part of the team. There was a 150+US batch being trained in Mysore. So most of the trainee batch was populated with US players. The trainee team was really strong. Our team played well. We managed 2 wins out of 4. One was with development center and another with a Trainee batch. We came third in the pool so were didn't go further in the tournament. But the great thing about the tournament, it helped in networking a lot of new friends. Had some good time during the games and was lot of fun. The only unfortunate thing that happend was that I twisted my left ankle :( Thankfully the injury wasn't worse.

When will I get hold anyone of these

I have been reading a lot about photography, cameras in particular. I'm looking for a DSLR.
A Nikon D50 Nikon D70s or the latest D80 is what I eye for. Though D50 would sit in my budget I have apprehension of spending on them right now. I have mixed feeling should I make a huge investment for hobby at this point of time. I have been spending an hour(s) reading about each camera, lens and comparing with the other models. My friend started feeling that I had gone mad about these cameras lately. When ever he peeps in to my cabin he always sees me reading some article about these wonderful equipment.

Let see what how things turn out and what/when I get hold of them :)
