[edit] My Camera

I have finally got a proper camera (the mighty Canon 20D coupled with a decent Tamron SP AF 28-75mm F/2.8 XR Di lens). Recently I also purchased a wide angle lens, the Canon 17-40 f/4 L

A year ago (as my userpage used to say) I had no intention whatsoever to become a professional photographer, but last December (2004) I won a $1000 grant to start a photographic business. So, although I still plan to do something else in life (I plan to go to Uni and study for something) I am, for now, trying to sell prints. So my contributions to Wikipedia should have a marked improvement in quality, but due to my slow internet connection the image size will probably only increase to 1600 pixels wide by whatever the aspect ratio high.

[edit] JON Photos

A friend of mine, John O'Neill (my IT teacher) supports Wikipedia, but doesn't have time to contribute. So instead of letting some great shot (which he has released under the GFDL) go to waste, I prepare, upload and find a home for his photos.
