Ben Ivory's photostream

I've just realised this hasn't been updated in a while. First picked up a camera in anger at the end of 2007 and pretty much haven't put it down since.

I've learnt so much from all the wonderful photographers on flickr. My images are now available to purcahse via my website.

Ben Ivory Photography

And I'm sorry I've had to do this, but

Dawn Martin Supertramp says:

"Ben Ivory is a incredibly talented photographer....his handheld HDR shots are really quite incredible and the amount of darling, glittery bokeh he can pull from his lens is staggering."

"I hadn’t been on flickr long before I came across Ben’s photos, and soon realised he had some inspiring shots that would help fire my creativity too. There is a lot of variety to his work, and his HDR shots are a feast for the eyes! It’s a pleasure to visit his stream, and you would be well advised to go back through his photos to see some superb images."

"Ben's is one of the few streams I stop in on on a regular basis. I really like to see what he has been up to and his work is really a source of considerable inspiration for a novice like me. I love the variety of the content of Ben's photos and the fact he continues to push himself to try new things rather than sticking with one genre and trotting it out time after time.

Apart from that, he is a West Country lad and can handle his cider and pickled eggs pretty well. Proper job!"

"Well... this is long overdue and you beat me to doing it first!

Ben's stream is one I always visit, we've been Flickr friends from my early days on here and his photos are always a pleasure. His macro shots are wonderful, his HDR shots are incredible but what I love the most are his bokeh shots... especially the heart bokeh! He's always around to comment - most of which make me laugh out loud - and offer advice although I still need to find out how he does the heart bokeh..... :-)

The other thing I love is that every now and then a shot will appear that is of something totally unexpected and wonderful like a cow (great shot!) or his adorable daughter who has the most beautiful big blue eyes. All in all, a visit to Mr Ivory's stream is a treat. Pull up a chair and be prepared to stay a while. xox"

"Ben is a favorite among my flickr friends! Helpful, humble and honest, his work is an inspiration and influential; I love his diversity! It is flattering to have him as a fellow group member and a contact! Thanks for bokeh, Ben!"
