Hi! my name is Alex Marchesin or better known as Marke555 and I'm 25-year-old. I live in a town close to Aviano AB and I work as a furniture vendor. I grew up seeing and hearing the military jets that took-off from the base so I really do not remember when I've realized to be an aviation enthusiast!

I become an aviation photographer in the early summer of 1998. Main targets of mine photography are to enlarge my images collection and to publish my material. I've traveled throught the years in many countries, Europe and United States, for take part to airshows, base visits and exercises.

My first camera was a Canon EOS 5 , with a 75-300 IS lens . I've used negative films since 2002, when I've started to shoot K64, but only for a short period. In 2004 I've bought my first Canon Eos digital camera body, a EOS-10D. I love the digital world and I will never come back to analogic cameras. Today my main camera is an EOS-1D MkII. Following is a list of my actual equipment:

EOS-1D Mark II
EOS-10D
EF 17-40mm f/4.0L USM
EF 24-85mm f/3.5-4.5 USM
EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM
EF 300mm f/4L IS USM
CF SanDisk Ultra II
