very nice. what kind of gear?

right now I am just using a Canon 40D, 15/2.8 fisheye and a 28-70/2.8. I just sold my 70-200/2.8 on the bay last week. I have really shrunk my gear over the past 6 months. I am finding I don't use a lot of stuff so why keep it.

Current Setup
Canon 40D
Remotes
15mm 2.8 Fisheye
28-70mm 2.8
SPL Water Housing(fits my 40D)
580ex flash(don't really use it all to much but I need to keep it).

Past Setup
Canon 20D, 10D, MarkII
Canon 15mm
Canon 28-70
Canon 100-400
Canon 85mm
Canon 16-35
Canon 70-200
Lights
battery packs
4 550ex flashes
and a whole bunch of other stuff

I am going to grab a 5D Mark II, actually 2 of them. I will grab a few other smaller lenses. I like to go wide and get in tight if possilbe and I really like primes whenever possible. I will probalby grab a new 70-200 2.8 but with the IS. Also, will grab a 300 2.8 down the road and just get a 1.4 converter. Hmm... what else, nothing I guess other then its bedtime I am wiped out.

Yoke's stuff is awesome!

I'm dabbling - stil in the early learning stages, but finding a passion for things that move! Be it gig photography (which I would love to get into properly and get some passes to get my DSLR into the gigs instead of my little point and shoot!), birds, sport. As long as it's moving I love trying to get a good shot.

Got my stuff in a couple of places;

Loved your butterfly shots, especially the 3rd one and last one!
