According to the price difference I would definitely take the Mark II. It's so much cheaper than the Mark III and the differences between the II and the III are just some tiny improvements and 1MP more. The only thing which seems to be an advantage is that they fixed the autofocus I think. :)
But Mark II is a better price for the things you get. :)
But it's up to you if you want to spend that much more money on the body or invest it into another lens and the 5D Mark II.

Plane tickets, photo props and a new jacket. :)

Who are you?

One which requires creativity and I want to be able to say "I'm proud what I've done" after every single workday. :)

Haha I was like: what the ... :D

Sam Posner ;D

I was invited by Marley Cumbee on Facebook. He's kind of the host of this project and we created a group for it on Facebook. He's also on Flickr.
I think you can join by asking him. :)

Thank you very much for your nice words. :) I really appreciate your opinion and it makes me happy to hear such things. :)
And yes you're right some photos are very personal to me and I reflect most of my thoughts in photos. So I totally agree with you that I expose myself a lot on the internet. But to be honest, I don't reget it because I think that's nothing to be ashamed of. Maybe the thoughts are kind of personal but not too personal to not share them. So I hope you know what I'm trying to say. :)

Thank you :)

It takes about 15 to 30 minutes for setting up my camera and shooting.
Editing takes up to 7 or 8 hours spread on a couple of days. :)
So I can't tell you the exact time but with editing it's between 2 to 9 hours. :)

I really can't pick just one because there are so many people on flickr which i would love to photograph. For example, Megan Wilson who has a perfect face and smile which i love so much. But also Sophia Alexis from Norway who is one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen in my entire life. I love her long hair and adorable face. And for guys I would really like to shoot Sam Posner, who was a wonderful smile and craggy features which I love so much. James Evans, because he could really be a model and look so artistic in every single shot. And not to forget Nicholas Scarpinato.

I'm sorry that it's not only one person. But I really can't decide between all of them. They are all too beautiful and I'm so glad to have them as a friend.

thank you so much. :) That makes me happy to hear :)

Amazon. :)

The time my mom took me to the coffee store. The smell of the coffee beans were so good and it was such a nice atmosphere when it was raining outside.

I use a Octabox (softbox) with a speedlite.
I usually put it in a 45 degrees angle to me and the camera and sometimes more towards the camera.
Also try to place it as near as you can to the subject. :)
You can use a white wall or a white background for your photos. Or whatever you prefer. :)

any more questions? :)

I love food from Italy :)

I bought myself a DSLR (the Canon 1000D) in Febuary 2011 (I think) and I was so blown away by the things this camera was able to do so I wanted to find out what I'm able to do with a camera like this and a couple of month later I fell in love with photography so bad :)

Thank you very much :) That makes me really happy to hear :)

Yep. :) Not only once :)

I find it attractive if people like some of the same things which I like, like music or movies, hobbies, etc. The person doesn't have to talk so much but has to laugh with me :) What I think is attractive is also if someone can listen to me and talk about stuff.
Appearance doesn't matter that much, if I like the person then I find every little detail so attractive. :)

I know that's kind of a messy answer but I really don't know how to explain that :) Sorry

No, not right now :)
