I'm not dead!

Hi all

Sorry i have been absent for quite some time, i've had myself an accident recently and wasn't able to hold a camera let alone type!

I was cleaning the chain on my motorbike and the brother decided he would test the throttle.. which cause my hand to get ripped into the sprocket breaking 3 fingers and needing 8 stitches in the back of my hand :[ the bandages are all off now but i still struggle to maintain a decent hold on the camera without pain in my hand.

sad it sucks! but i shall keep trying till i'm able to contribute to the galleries and competitions again but i shall endeavour to become active around the forums again at least, until im in a position to hold a camera long enough to get a decent shot!

I only thought motorcyclists were meant to be mangled when riding the bikes.

That's a nasty accident. I think I'll be keeping my hands in my pockets from now on, just in case any mangling opportunities are lurking around.

Why not guilt your brother into holding the camera for you, sort of like an interactive tripod?
Glad to hear you're ok and looking forward to you posting again. good
