Albert,
You can do what a number of us have done to justify the habit^h^h^h^h^h hobby.
Make a very artistic photograph of one of her favorite subjects, or subject
material, have a large print made of it, frame it and give that to her. I
have done variations of this unframed because the other half likes to keep
photo albums. The best effect is achieved as soon as possible after a
major lens or body purchase, ostensibly using the newly acquired hardware,
and making claim it was only possible with that hardware.
