Born in Portsmouth Hampshire, now living in Essex, city boy to countryman.

Always keen on photography, first job darkroom tec for a well known glamour photographer, been in printing, electonics and aviation since.

Not a camera snob, its the picture, the feel, that matters.

Often get accused of ruining perfectly good photographs by 'mucking them about'.

Why do I do this, if you printout 'some' of my photographs on art texture paper and maybe mount and frame them, hang them on your wall, I hope you will understand, if not, sorry ..

I had a dodgy early life in dear old Pompey, being a Mudlark and all, not much 'formal' education, left school a 'little' early.

Always wanted to paint, no money, no time and no training, sad a'int it, now I have top class photographic equipment and all the 'stuff' but I still can't paint !

Thing is ! Would I swop all my Nikons and Hasselblad to be able to truly paint, yes I would, honest !

I do sometimes upload photos with errors - just to get feedback - if you do something wrong people will always tell you - if its always great and good not everybody bothers to comment ..


Your Dominant Intelligence is Interpersonal Intelligence




You shine in your ability to relate to and understand others.
Good at seeing others' points of view, you get how people think and feel.
You have an uncanny ability to sense true feelings, intentions, and motivations.
A natural born leader, you are great at teaching and mediating conflict.

You would make a good counselor, salesperson, politician, or business person.

What Kind of Intelligence Do You Have?





MUSIC I LOVE MUSIC !!

    "I would like to say that John's PhotoStream is a wonderful mix of images all very nice captured. The images of the English town and cottages I find very interesting and extremely well captured and presented. John seems to have a real knack for being able to catch the beauty of these villages very nicely. His Photostream is well worth browsing the 1,966 images. A Flickr friend and an excellent contact always beautiful images and excellent work"

    "John is a prolific Flickrite. It's difficult keeping up with his pictures he posts so many yet all are worthy of a proper look. He finds just the right angle for "postcard" quality shots of his neighborhood and beyond.

    Superb post-processing gives a dreamlike quality to some everyday scenes. Also very informative with plenty of history and/or info added in his comments gives an almost reference book appeal to his stream.

    Keep 'em coming John."
