Nikon Fever

Ever since it came to me my Nikon has been doing stupid things. It has hung from cliff edges just to capture an image of a small lizard I could have photographed in my backyard. Its gazed at clouds until imagined dragons chased swans over the heavens knowing all the while that its viewfinder was triggering me. It grew heavier on my neck demanding I follow it into spiky brush searching for a miniscule insect that no one cared a damn about. Once I fell into a creek trying to snap a heron. I swear I heard that Nikon shutter click just behind my floundering head.
