Just an amateur, looking at a long term hobby.
Played professional badminton for more than 10 years, then began thinking... "50 years from now, will I be able to play badminton at the same level as today?"
Thus the beginning of my photography. 50 years from now, I will still have enough energy to click a shutter button :)
Shooting with a Canon EOS 350D, an EF-S 17-55 IS USM, and an EF 70-200/4 IS USM.
