Jealousy


Maeve's equipment of choice is a Nikon Coolpix L11, replacing her first camera, a ancient film-based Olympus. The Nikon serves her purposes significantly better, especially as the Olympus never had any film (although it did make a cool film-advance sound). Nevertheless, the Nikon -- despite a striking resemblance -- is technologically inferior to Mommy and Daddy's Canon SD-800 (not to mention the 20Ds). Maeve never hints at being bothered by the difference, but the envy she hides is obvious in this deeply-felt piece, in which a slight overexposure gives the Canon an almost glowing aspect.
