I'm Claire Dupuis, lady photog from France

Hello everyone,
As many of view I suppose I've been a dpreview forum member for numerous years, and interested in photography for longer yet, about 20 years ! (I started fiddling with cameras in my late teens).
The basics about me : I live and work near Paris, at CDG international airport, I have a 3 month old daughter, Marla, and I'm a serial camera switcher and admitted gearhead. I take pictures for my own pleasure, with no pretense whatsoever, just because it makes me feel good and relaxed. I am pretty fascinated by technology these days, so I confess I do surf the web a LOT about cameras, lenses, brand releases, lightning technique, and photography in general.
I also do some modeling from time to time, my main aera of interested being art nude, clair obscur...
I've shot 15 different DSLR's in the past 5 years, from Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Minolta and Pentax, and numerous bridges before from the same makers, and Olympus as well, plus a couple of compacts from Fuji. At the moment I'm in the process if switching my Canon gear (5D + various lenses) for a Nikon D700 and assorted lenses.
I look forward to sharing and exchanging with you all hobbyists on this forum, and wish you all a happy holiday season.
Claire
