| Intro: | Proud member of Treknature since April 27th, 2005. A big "Hello!" from Cologne, Germany! :-) 2008 actually started out really nice, but it ended abruptly with my momīs sudden passing away on January 15th - i needed a break from everything then and now i am slowly getting things "running" again, which means posting on the Treksites as well. Born in 1968, the first camera with about 5 years - my momīs Kodak Instamatic, then my dadīs Zeiss Ikon Contessa, finally in 1982 my own Konica Autoreflex TC which lasted until 1989 and had to be replaced by a Canon EOS 650, different (used) ones followed (EOS 1N, EOS 50e) as well as the APS-format Canon IX. In 2005 the first digital SLR with the EOS 300D, 1 year later the 20D and the 400D. Since March 2008 i am using the EOS 40D. In 1995 I finished my studies at the University of Wuppertal as a Food Chemist and am now working in a chemical laboratory. Some great news - as a total amateur i now have one of my photos in a book! :-) travel-plans for 2008: Sept. 18th - Oct. 3rd: New York, Boston, East Coast of the USA. *Main Equipment at the moment* Cameras: Canon EOS 40D Canon EOS 20D + BG-E2 Lenses: Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L IS USM Canon EF 17-40mm f/4 L USM Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM Canon EF-S 17-85 f/4-5.6 IS USM Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Exakta 500mm Mirrorlens Exakta 650-1300mm f/8-16 Sigma EX 105mm f/2.8 DG Macro Tamron 18-250mm f/3,5-6,3 Di II Canon Extender EF 1.4x II TC-80N3 timer remote controller.
