Hey everyone,

first of all, thanks for the welcome back and everything, really appreciate it! I mean, i have been gone for quite some time

Anyways, just wanted to say that i really enjoy watching all the deviations that you've made since i've been gone, even though i'm having a hard time going through all of them: i still have a few thousand left!
But it's just good to see how all of you have improved as photographers/artists... and you continue to inspire me to improve as well. So, please keep doing what you do & try to enjoy it as much as you can!

Some new Equipment:

for those of you interested, i've got a few new things that i wanted to share with you. Who knows, it might be of some use to you as well, right?

- Canon EF 35mm, 2.0 : this is now officially my favourite walk-around lens.. I usually prefer prime lenses anyway, and this one is perfect for my current Camera, which has a 1.6 cropfactor. It just delivers, time and time again.. Expect to see some shots i took with this baby very soon!

- Samsung Syncmaster 215 TW : If you're looking for a good monitor for Photography or Design use, and don't want to (or can't) spend the money for a Lacie or Eizo monitor, this is a very good choice in my opinion! Just google it to see the specs if you're interested. It's not as good as a Lacie or Eizo monitor obviously, but it costs almost 3 or 4 times less! And in my opinion it can definitely hold it's own against for example an Apple Cinema display or something comparable...

- Lowepro Nova 4AW camera shoulderbag : nicely built and with lots of room for pretty much everything i need to take with me. Also with an "All weather cover", which really isn't a bad idea with the weather here in Holland!

That's it for now. If anyone has any questions about for example some of my new equipment i just mentioned, just let me know
Also, i'll try to upload some new shots next week, but i won't make any promises I still have my work cut out for me with all of your deviations & not to mention journals!

Take care everyone, happy shootin'!

-Mike-
