*ds*'s photostream

I am an amateur photographer based in the UK. I am still relatively new to the world of photography and learning every step of the way. Due to work and other commitments I cannot be as active in Photography and Flickr as I would like to be however I do try and upload some shots from time to time when I have chance. I am very grateful for all of the encouraging and kind comments from my contacts and everyone on flickr. I am always amazed on how many talented photographers there are out there from all walks of life and really enjoy looking at their work and seeing the world through their lens.
