Hello, I was encouraged to create this thread by a fellow forum member...

As I'm sure most of you know, I have travelled across the entire country taking photos of both Ron and Rand, from Arizona to DC, from Indiana to Mississippi, I have thoroughly enjoyed taking photos of the Pauls. As such, I have always made do with my camera equipment, and have always been complimented on my equipment.

But lately I have been considering upgrading even further, in order to provide even better photos for you all; hopefully sharper and crisper than ever before.

With this in mind, I have started a ChipIn with the hopes that a couple people with some money, unlike me, would be able to help me out in buying a new lens for my camera. Here is the link for those willing to help me out: http://cpacrpf.chipin.com/camera-lens-please-help

The lens isn't cheap, unfortunately, (and I can link you to the lens for anyone interested) but even $10, $20, or even $100 would add up tremendously quick, and I can finally be able to fulfill my dream of having the ultimate lens...which I have dreamed about for years. I'd like to thank you all for continuing to enjoy my photos, and making these cross-country trips worth it, and possible.

I hope you will consider donating to this effort. Thank you.

P.S. For those who have never seen my photos, here is my Flickr account: http://flickr.com/gageskidmore

Edit: And it's actually my birthday on May 16! Please help my birthday wish come true, if you can. :p

In the other Help Gage thread out http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?292647-Will-you-consider-helping-me-out/page7

both KC INDY and myself are offering to match any $20.12 donation to get this lens for Gage, so he can continue kickin a$$ all around the country, giving us awesome, unique pics that will someday be the record of this historic revolution that started the ball rolling to re-take this government.

Let's quit playing around.

Who is ready?

Hi Gage, Have you considered using your talent for profit? That is probably the best way for you to go about funding your hobby in the future. Your pictures are awesome though and I'm not trying to discourage anyone from donating.
