3 wheeled beauties

Its not just big engine bikes which look good and sexy. I just came across two different 3 wheeled vehicles which look absolutely gorgeous. Here’s the smaller one first: a 3 wheeled Scooter.

Its called the Piaggio MP3. Yes, that’s right MP3. Its a 3 wheeled scooter which looks prettier than any 2 wheeled scooter I have ever seen. You can see and read more about this beauty at its home page.

And here’s the next pretty thing on 3 wheels: a 3 wheeled motorbike.

This one is called the Spyder Can-am. And it looks even better than the MP3 above. If you like this one, then here’s the link to it’s home page.

Both of these pretty vehicles offer the thrill of riding a two-wheeler in a much safer manner.

Gear Overload

This one is a personal post. I thought it would be a good idea to write about what kind of equipment I carry around all the time, and it would be even better if those who read this, left their own gear list in the comments. Well, here goes.

First of all, I love photography and so I also carry my Camera gear along with my computer gear. Here’s a complete list:

Backpack – I own a LowePro CompuTrekker AW. This allows me to carry my camera equipment along with my laptop.

Camera Equipment - Canon DSLR 40D, EFS 17-85mm f/4-5.6, EF 70-200mm f/4 L, EF 100-400mm f/4-5.6 L, 500D Close Up, 1.4x Extender, SpeedLite 550EXII, and a bunch of other accessories, along with a Manfrotto/Bogen Tripod.

Laptop – Dell Precidion M65, 2 GB RAM, 2.83 GHz Core Duo, 15.4” 1920×1280 display, with an extra battery pack.

Phone – Blackberry Curve

That’s it. You can find me with all the above equipment whenever I am traveling. What’s your gear like?

Need to buy a really handy cam?

Till today, I never looked past Sony, Canon, Panasonic, etc. when I thought about a video camera. I didn’t even know that there is a whole range of devices that are about the size of a phone, can record great video, and will easily fit in your purse or pocket. Now, I am excited. Flip is one manufacturer which makes such cameras (there are many other manufacturers) and they have a line of products which is very exciting.
