Here's the deal... I've seen some incredible galleries from some of our members here. I'd like to give you a place to plug your galleries... promote them... get people connected to them... show them off... etc. All I ask in return is that you post something here about the equipment you use, when you post the link to the gallery. I'll start....
I post some of my pictures at http://collins-home.com . The gallery has sports pictures, family snapshots, and a few animals.
The pictures from the last year were mostly shot with Canon gear - 1DM2 / 1DM2N / 20D, and a variety of lenses. You'll see shots there with the 24-70 f/2.8, 17-40 f/4, 50 f/1.4, 85 f/1.8, 135 f/2, 200 f/1.8, and 400 f/2.8. There are also a few shots from a Nikon Coolpix 4300 and shots prior to a year ago were shot with Nikon DSLRs... D70 and D2H.
For the past 9 months I have used the Casio Exilim EX-Z750. It is an ultra-compact 7.2MP camera. I like to take spur-of-the-moment pictures, so it is nice to have something small enough to keep with me 24/7 Before that I used the Pentax Optio S5i for about 9 months... which was a 5MP ultra-compact. Before that my primary camera was my Treo 600!
I primarily post scenic landscape types of pictures on my site

I have everything there from when I was shooting film on a Pentax K1000 (as a kid) all the way to my current Canon 1nRS. I recently got into the DSLR side of things, and started out with a Canon RebelXT which evolved into a 10D, then a 20D (got rid of the XT at this point), and then up to current which is in my signature. I have been labeled "The Machine" by Mike as I always try to have a camera in hand or with me... and I tend to take long drives to shoot on a whim. I also recently took my long range shooting to a whole new level (and my bank funds to a whole new low) with the purchase of a Canon 500/4 IS lens. For the day to day shooting I use a Canon Pro-1 which is a point-n-shoot with L-Glass in it.

Great shots Vexamus... I especially like the pool series. The main page took a very long time to load though... Some great car shots on the Flickr page too. Be sure to check out NorthEastFoto... you are within our target geography and there are some very could car photographers on there too.

You'll be able to tell, I prefer to shoot surfing. Most of the family shots are in private galleries on this site.
I started with the Rebel G and then found digital. Got the 30D after the Digital Rebel. Got the 70-300 IS after a Phoenix 100-400. I'm now looking for a 70-200 f2.8L IS and TCs. Does the addiction stop at some point? I had a 300 L on my 30D and was amazed at the difference from the 70-300.
I shoot pics of bars and clubs for my website.... capturing your nights out : HotPartynights.com. I use an Olympus E-510 with a 14-42mm f3.5-5.6. It's just the lenses that came with the body but it works great for bars and clubs. Eventually I will buy some more lenses and an external flash
I too have a Canon 40D. I bought in December and have become addicted to it already. I've been eyeing (drooling over?) the 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM. How do you like it? I've been wanting to buy it, but am choking over the $1,600 price tag, especially as I've already dropped a lot of money on lenses in the past 6 months or so.

I love the 70-200...it's a workhorse. My new 17-55 is my walk-around lens...these two I use most of the time.
Picked up the 17-55 in May. It's been great so far, but the focal length is just a wee bit shorter than what I need to capture photos of my 7-year-old's basketball games.
With the economy what it is right now, I think I'm going to hold off on the 70-200 even thought Canon currently is offering a $200 instant rebate on it. I'm hoping Canon will offer a similar rebate in December and that I can pick it up at that time.

Well, I finally set up my gallery on SmugMug (as a trial). You can get to it at www.eye2thworldphoto.com. Let me know what you think. Just keep in mind that I'm still getting it set up.

Looks good Jay. I like the darker backgrounds best.
Thanks, Mike. I'll still have several galleries to upload and then I'll play with the themes a bit.

Very, very nice gallery. I especially like the last one on page 8 ("Lucky Shot")--what an aptly captioned photo!
