Been taking Photos for years..Never realising that it could be fun and not just for taking Pics of the kids...
Now getting to grips with a new camera and any advice that Flickr dudes or dudettes want to offer will be gratefully received and learned from..
I had an old Zenit camera and the pictures you could take with it (once you had set all the focus,iso etc) were wonderful..My wife bought me a cheap 4mp camera and i was taken into digital..no more developing costs and instantly available on your PC..but the bugger ate batteries like Pie lovers at a Pie fest..My trusty Sony Erriccson Camphone takes outstanding photos with its 2mp setup but lacks any real depth..Some of the earliest photos in my stream are from this phone..
Next i saved and bought a Kodak Z710, this camera i used for nearly two years and really loved it, Its obvious limitations became quickly realised and i started saving for a newer better one.
A couple of years back I purchased a new Fuji Finepix S200exr. This camera is really great and i wanted to stick to a bridge as you dont need to carry a case full of expensive lenses. I think i will stick to Fuji for the foreseeable future.
I have now bought my first filters for the Fuji, ND,IR and a few others, this should gave my photography a little lift to where i want to be..
I currently use Elements 10, with various plugins and Media Chance Hdr software to do a little postscript manipulation, If you dont like this kind of photo manipulation, dont look into my stream as its full of it, I didnt make those photos for anybody except me, Comments other than "Yuk" will be greatly appreciated.
IF YOU DONT LIKE THEM, DONT GET NASTY, JUST DONT LOOK.
I AM A HOBBY PHOTOGRAPHER WITH NO PLANS TO CHANGE MY SHIT.
I found Flickr around November 2008 and i couldnt leave it alone..I then purchased a pro membership and set about filling my photostream with all my stuff from previous and new snaps from my new Fuji. Talk about value for money, its the best 18 quid ive spent in a long while..I recomend if you out there dont have Pro, get it. i reached my 200 photos quite quickly and now there is no upper ceiling to what you can upload.(other than the size of the snaps and videos).
Armed with my digital camera and if my spine is up to it, i will be out and about looking for that picture to share with you. I have added a few short video's (Mostly Railway Stuff) and more will follow as they become available to me. As this is a photography sharing site i didnt think that there was any place for video but on checking some of the clips that are available i quickly changed my mind on this. Watch my photostream for further updates.
I would also like to say to all the people that have viewed & commented on my stuff, a big thankyou, and to all the people that have made contact with me, thanks also, its really great to get feedback and ive made quite a few new contacts over the last while

Some of the photos that are featured here on Flickr are quite simply stunning and i get blown away on a daily basis with the superb works of art that people are willing to share on Flickr. Keep it up everybody, its really amazing.
Thankyou Flickr. (The best photo sharing website on this planet).
If you like my photos and would like to use them for any reason please drop me an Email and seek permission first. I don't want to block or watermark them in anyway so please respect my wishes and contact me..
I probably will say yes to most enquires anyway, Just ask please.

To my Dad, Ewen L Todd, who passed away on the 26th March 2010 after a battle with Pancreatic Cancer.

Dad...so many images come to mind
whenever I speak your name;
It seems without you in my life
things have never been the same.

What happened to those lazy days
when I was just a child;
When my life was consumed in you
in your love, and in your smile.

What happened to all those times
when I always looked to you;
No matter what happened in my life
you could make my gray skies blue.

Dad, some days I hear your voice
and turn to see your face;
Yet in my turning...it seems
the sound has been erased.

Dad, who will I turn to for answers
when life does not make sense;
Who will be there to hold me close
when the pieces just don't fit.

Oh, Dad, if I could turn back time
and once more hear your voice;
I'd tell you that out of all the dads
you would still be my choice.

Please always know I love you
and no one can take your place;
Years may come and go
but your memory will never be erased.

Today, God, if you are listening
in your home above;
Would you go and find my dad
and give him all my love?

If roses grow in heaven Lord, then pick a bunch for me. Place them in my dad's arms and tell him they're from me. Tell him that I love and miss him, and when he turns to smile, place a kiss upon his cheek and hold him for awhile... I miss you DAD!!!
