So Apple had me hooked with this scene during their iPhone launch event in October - see the extract that kicks off the video below. A herd of wild horses recorded with a 12 Pro Max strapped to the bumper of a truck and another strapped to a drone.
So I put in my request. My 12 Pro was approved. Come on - I was upgrading from a 6. I was long over due. But my request for a dual-motor Tesla Cybertruck was denied. As was that for GEOMAX ZOOM90 drone. Ok, may be I should have aimed lower than the $75K those two items would likely cost.
However, I was not going to be denied my horses. Starting at 0.32 in the video is what Margaret I got. Not as dynamic as the Apple ones, but Brooklyn is 17 years old and Officer Max MacDonald is 62. And quite a pedigree. Brooklyn is a percheron-thoroughbred cross and was donated to the St. Petersburg Police Department when the Boston Police Department dissolved its mounted unit in 2009. Bred by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, he was born for mounted police work. He has worked hard enough for Officer Max to hand feed him daily treats of Rice Krispies cakes.
In the meantime, Apple has inspired me even more with other ideas which may not need trucks or drones - see starting at 0.48
Of course, now my accountant comes back with "Your SUV's panoramic roof should allow you to take some great movies. And by the way that is also 6 years old. You may qualify to apply for a replacement".
Thank you. Who said accountants cannot be creative? :)
