Statr for Flickr daily graph

A very keen amateur landscape photographer.
I am obsessed with photography and am constantly trying to improve my skills.
I have no formal training whatever and would love to do some Courses to improve myself.

PLEASE DO NOT ADD ME AS A CONTACT UNLESS YOU INTEND TO MAKE AT LEAST SOME COMMENTS - I WILL NOT MARK YOU BACK AS A CONTACT - SORRY!! I AM NOT INTERESTED IN BEING ANOTHER SCALP ON YOUR BELTOF 2,000+ Contacts!!!!

ALSO, recently I have blocked several people as they have marked several of my pictures as Favourites without even commenting on one of them................when I go to their photostream they have nothing uploaded and are obviously just using other peoples pictures for whatever reason. I also block these people......Sorry!!!

I have been on Flickr for almost 3 years and I am absolutely addicted!!
I have picked up so much from my Contacts and have made some amazing friends from all parts of the Globe - I have met many of them in the flesh and gone on some great photoshoots with them
I would never have had this opportunity without Flickr - thank you all.

    SewerDoc (Busy) says:

    "It is a real pleasure for me to write this testimonial for my dear Flickr friend Mari, who I got to meet and go shooting with recently during a visit to Ireland. She is full of live and loves her photography. She is a fun photographer who knows how to find and shoot the most interesting subjects, all taken from the best vantage points and angles. Her idea of a zoom lens is to use her feet to scamper up steep slippery rocks, climb over fences, and do whatever is necessary to get into the best position possible to capture her subjects. The fine photography in her photostream speaks for itself!"

    "If it's her homeland in Donegal or her shots from her extensive travels, Mari's photostream is a joy to behold.

    This sharp eye for beauty is evident in all her work, especially her landscapes.

    It's a pleasure to have her as a friend on Flickr.

    Thanks Mari and God Bless"

I enjoy paying a visit to her varied photostream and always look forward to her next entry. It is a honour her to call her my contact and friend and I wish her the best of luck with all her photography pursuits."

    "Mari and I have become Flickr friends only recently but she has been a total inspiration to me and has alway be there with good constructive comments. I would without doubt consider her a master photographer - and if anyone would like to challange that simply look at her work on Explore or her photostream.

    Mari please keep up the GREAT work and I will keep trying to catch up ha ha"

    "Mari and I became friends just recently and her photography flooded me with its quality. I was most inspired by the great imagination she brings to each and every shot. Her work with the Camera over N.Ireland bring pictures of the highest quality.
    I shall be there myself in a few weeks time and if I can get a few shots which get anywhere near her standards I will be a very happy man.
    Go to Spain and the same thing occurrs again! Yes -a high-class photographer who I have found, and who is teaching me the art of new ways to use my own Camera."
