I just read this great article and it made me think of Jocke's photos and how everyone always asked which camera he uses. From the article:

"Just about any camera, regardless of how good or bad it is, can be used to create outstanding photographs for magazine covers, winning photo contests and hanging in art galleries. The quality of a lens or camera has almost nothing do with the quality of images it can be used to produce.

You probably already have all the equipment you need, if you'd just learn to make the best of it. Better gear will not make you any better photos, since the gear can't make you a better photographer.

Photographers make photos, not cameras.

quote for truth. you need to have an eye for detail when taking photos.

although i have to admit a set of good camera gear will also make you feel good.
