====== Photography ======

I like to take pictures. The kind of pictures I like to shot is mainly about architecture, land and cityscapes and street life. I try to upload the pictures I consider that are the best ones to my [[https://pbase.com/xf/|PBase gallery.
]]

The gear I am most used to is:

  * [[wp>Canon_EOS-1Ds_Mark_II|Canon EOS 1Ds MKII.]]
  * [[wp>Canon_EOS_350D|Canon EOS 350D.]]
  * [[wp>Sigma_DP1|Sigma DP1.]]
  * [[wp>35_mm_Bessa#Bessa-R|Voigtländer Bessa R + 35mm f/2.5 Color Skopar.]]
  * Canon EF 50mm f/1.4
  * Canon EF 24mm f/2.8
  * Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8
  * 600mm f/8 generic mirror lens.

Here are few samples that can represent what I like to shot at:
