"... it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." -- Herman Göring

"When dogma enters the brain, all intellectual activity ceases" -- Robert Anton Wilson

"That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history." - Aldous Huxley

If you use any of these photos without asking I reserve the right to fart in your general direction.

I'm available to photograph anything except weddings, which I have an allergy to.

And I don't consider flickr video to be a positive step, so my videos (mostly live music) are here -

    "With a good eye for composition and content Plastic does a good job of showing Derry in a beautiful light finding beauty where perhaps it could be overlooked. His techniques and post processing makes for good viewing particularly when he escapes the city and gets down and dirty in the country.
    In summary, Dave's allright for a Man U fan!!!!
    ps
    Have you seen the size of his Bike?"

    "Not only is he a great brother (the cheesy bit of my testimonial). But he's also a great photographer. I'm in total awe when I look at his photos. He loves his work, too, and that really shows.




    He'll probably shoot me for this, but what the heck?"

    "The flickr world is all the better for having Dave in it. He is obviously a talented and creative photographer with a sharp eye for composition, texture, light and french women. But what often goes unnoticed are his countless other talents.

    For example, he handcrafts fine cheeses (if you've never had his barrel-aged applewood gouda, you're really missing out) and cobbles wooden clogs in the traditional Dutch style. A five-time European motorcross champion, he held the post of mayor of Donegal unopposed for twelve years until stepping down in 2002 to pursue his true passion, sumo wrestling.

    Yes, Dave is not a just great photographer. He is a man of the world who also takes great photos.

    Oh, and he turns into a big Nancy around kittens."

    "We're really, really surprised that we're the first to show appreciation to what we consider to be a wonderful photographer. I bet you're cringing while reading this, but it has to be said, while you and the infamous Wrinkles O'Toole have been away in the 'Dam', we have missed our daily fix of your latest uploads onto Flickr. You have made us look at our 'Pretty Shitty City' in a completely new light. You have made us wonder with delight at our neighbouring county Donegal. And you have a wonderful ability to add fiction to photo with one snap of your finger. Thank You Plastic Jesus (although I prefer Dangerous Dave) and keep us inspired.
    Lots of love and appreciation Positively Purple and her worst half. X"
