doc18's photostream
|
Welcome to my Childish and Weird Mindscape
I like to bring toys alive. I only do touch ups in Photoshop so the scenes are real :)
I document my thoughts on toys on my Toy Shrine blog
I created a free wallpaper app for the iPhone/iPodTouch called the ToyShrine
I sell some of the toys from my collection from time to time. If you are interested then keep an eye on my 'Toy Boot Sale' blog :)
I also wrote a Flickr GreaseMonkey script for adding Buddy Icons to replies. Check it out here,

"Doc18's toy photos always cheer me up. If there's someone who has truly managed to preserve the positive side of childhood, it must be him."

"There are many toy photographers and many people I know who dearly love toys. doc18 is pretty much the perfection of both those statements, in my opinion. Every pic is magic and we are lucky to be given the gift of sharing his weird and beautiful realm. doc18 is one of the few on flickr who make me happy every time I enter his world. He's neat, sweet and up-and-down the street with his dear friends, the toys. Thanks, doc, for being here. You definitely make it a better place!"

"Doc18’s beautiful photo’s will always amaze me, the use of “normal” and “abnormal” backgrounds for his great collection of toys is brilliant. He takes you to places you have never been and maybe never noticed until now.
......And he’s one of the nicest people I know ;)......
Keep it up doc!"27th March, 2007

"Doc18 will not only take you around the world, he will show you the most beautiful places, interesting situations and take you to the most sophisticated restaurants for dinner. Doc18 can always find the right angle to present the object of interest in a better light. The photos are always informative, soon you find out you are addicted to Doc18's page. He always has new photos that make you come back. On top of everything Doc18 makes a great friend here on Flickr with a great sense of humor who never forgets to stop by a friend's page with a couple of comments."
