My poor lens

"Falling lenses are attracted to rocks"
Bo Stahlbrandt
 Camera   Nikon Coolpix 5000
 Date  October 2002
 Location  Moab Utah, USA
 Additional info  Don't ask how; the lens fell on the rocks in the Utah desert.
Fortunately it was protected with its L37C UV filter and its reversed hood, so it was saved from worst damage. The lens will need its outer rim to be replaced and hopefully that will be all.
No, it was not dropped on purpose for the sake of illustration.
