Below is the old me, the 'more money than sense' me.

The new me has sold most of the toys below, he now has stripped down to the basics, and has real fun again!

____________________________________________
A keen amateur who just happens to want to record the things he sees that interests him.
I take inspiration from nature, and taking the time to really see things, rather than just glimpse them. Family is a huge subject for me and I am sure they are all more than used to me poking a camera in their faces day and night!

A moment in time is just that, a moment, and then its gone forever, unless some clever soul has captured it on a camera ;-)

My view is that if it moves you, then embrace it.

New Years resolution No1; Be more active on Flikr, comment more and take more photo's. If I start to slip I need someone to give me a nudge.

"There are quite a few excellent photographers on here and Kev is one of them. The beauty and the quality of the shots he takes show just how much he actually loves the subjects; a trait that not a lot of photographers can pull off. It's always a treat when I see new photos from Kev in my contacts. Alright...nothing more to see here. Go and look at his ENTIRE photostream right now! Definitely time well spent!"

"KevP shows us a world in harmony, his photos reflect the joy and peace that remain in the small details of life, which usually happens to be the most important: the people around us and the nature. His images are full of bright color, that gives energy to those who look at them, and the composition he choses makes spectacular and unique the ordinary world that is in front our eyes."

"Take your time when going through Kev's photos... you really don't want to miss a thing when viewing the world through his eyes.

Kev has such an appreciation for life, and it shows. Whether he's capturing the beauty of a bubble floating through the air, or the gaze of a child staring up at the man with the camera... you can literally FEEL what he has successfully captured in that brief moment of time.

He's one of my very faves here on Flickr. I'm honored to add a testimonial for Kev."
