"Nothing to do but be,
Nothing to be but me."

I am really getting into this whole flickr thing now and it is making think about the pictures I am taking in a different way I think. I am finding it really cool to see some of the incredible shots around the site and make contact with some of the good people out there. It is all a bit humbling really. Thanks if you have left comments or simply had a look at and enjoyed my pictures. I hope to post a whole lot more soon so keep an eye on this space.

If you were to contact me about the use of an image I am open to your requests.
If you are interested in one to one tuition then please let me know, and we can arrange a session. As an Art teacher for the last 6 years I have a solid background in careful explanation and can offer a lifetimes knowledge of Cornwall and its' more 'secret' areas. My rates are also very reasonable.

Please take the time to view my pictures at the large scale to see the focus and detail. I put some effort into it and I feel it really makes a difference. If you favourite pictures but I am unable to view anything of yours, I will block you. This is because I am suspicious of image fraud.

Simon Sheffield says:

"Joe is one of those guys who knows what he wants and knows how to get it. He sacrifices cold fingers and toes and is truly dedicated to his photography. Each time I visit his stream I wish it was me behind his camera. There are so many of his images I would/could/shoud favourite. I hope one day he has his own exhibition. He really deserves to be recognized."

James Neeley says:

""Rainbow Man" has a wonderful portfolio of images on Flickr. Each one is expertly crafted and a joy to view. With excellent composition and meticulous processing, Joe has produced a series of exceptional photographs for us to enjoy."

Arild Heitmann Photography says:

"Let me be the first to write a testimonial to Joe.... I very rarely do these things, but Joe`s stream is worthy. He has such a great eye for composition and taking advantage of the light, which in my eyes is essential and the single most important thing in landscape photography. Ofcourse, the fact that he has started experimenting with blending is a big plus :-) :-) He also leaves great comments almost every time, not afraid to let people know exactly what he thinks...thanks for that.

His whole stream is a just a huge showcase for amazing seascapes..

Sincerely

Arild"
