Don Gissel's photostream  

I'm an amateur from Aarhus, Denmark. I've always liked photography, and experimented on and off through the years with borrowed equipment, back when you actually had to develop your film to see the results. My interest in the subject probably would have stayed at manageable levels, had it not been for the influence and inspiration of two friends (the talented Martin and Ricco, whose works you should definitely check out).

Since then, I have found much inspiration and help in the enormous community that is Flickr, and as it seems everyone out there are too talented for their own good, it spurs me to keep on working, improving my own craft. As it is, I seem to get sucked in deeper and deeper. And I like it.

Equipment used:
- Canon EOS 7D
- Canon EF-S 17-55/2.8 IS USM w. Hoyo UV-filter & EW83 hood
- Canon EF 50/1.8 II
- Canon EF 100/2.8 USM macro
- Canon 430EX II w. StoFen diffuser
- 2x Lumopro LP160, Westcott umbrellas
- Cactus v4 triggers

A sizable portion of the pictures in my stream were taken with a Canon EOS 20D, some of those with a Canon 17-85/4.0-5.6 IS USM lens - both of which have now been sold off in favor of bigger and better things.

I hope some improvement will eventually be evident in my work, but feel free to comment and criticize regardless. I'm eager to learn the trade.
