Photography means different things to different people. Personally, I feel that a good photo must do one of two things. It needs to either tell a story, or convey a particular emotion. I put special importance in the second of the two points above. I would like my photos to invoke very human emotions when viewed.

I shoot with:

Canon EOS 5Dmk2

Canon EOS 50D

Canon EF 50mm f1.4

Canon EF 100mm f2.8L IS USM

Canon EF 17-40 f4L USM

Canon EF 24-105 f4L IS USM

Canon EFS 18-200 f3.5-5.6 IS

The occasional borrowed len.

For post-processing:

- The majority of my photos get a touch up with some curve adjustment in Digital Photo Professional only. I'm a bit of a minimalist when it comes to post processing.

- I use photoshop for black and white photos, and also to play with some filters that I like (such as shuimo/sumi-e).
