I'm a hobbyist interested in photojournalism and street photography mostly. I post here once every four blue moons -- in the meantime, I'd probably be drooling over photos on The Big Picture In Focus or looking for the next cheap and cheerful Ryanair getaway. Aside from photography, I also happen to be a sucker for beautiful typefaces.

Gear I have:

• Canon EOS 450D / Digital Rebel XSi

• Canon EF 50mm ƒ/1.8 Mk II

• Canon EF-S 18-55mm ƒ/3.5-5.6 IS (kit lens)

• Fuji FinePix F30.

Gear I'd love to afford own:

• Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM

• Canon EF 70-200mm ƒ/2.8L IS II USM

• Canon EF 17-40mm ƒ/4.0L USM, or

• Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM

• Fujifilm FinePix X100

• Panasonic Lumix GF1
