Note: please don't post random award/invite graphics on my photos. I find them irritating and will likely delete them without further comment.

I first arrived on Flickr in February 2005 and seem to have rarely left the place since. You will usually find me hanging around in Utata - do drop by sometime and say hello. Utata's a great place to visit for good company, conversation and some stunning photography:

I'm also a big fan of the Flickr Commons, and help manage the Indicommons web site.

I work for myself, doing IT consultancy and software development for a variety of people - from small back-room businesses to major blue chip companies. I've been building software for as long as I can remember and am responsible for all the back-end systems and Flickr integration over at www.utata.org/.

    The Pack says:

    "One would think that photography would be restricted to art for the eyes, but David Wilkinson's images treat you to an experience that delights all your senses. There is certainly nothing ordinary about his vision. He uses light and focus to offer everyday items in truly extraordinary ways. Whether smelling his double chocolate chunk cookies fresh from the oven, running your fingers through flamingo feathers, savoring the tang of a juicy orange, or listening to the bleats of a flock of sheep, you'll realize that David's images trigger a full range of sensational memories. There’s something for everyone to savor in the images by Dopiaza."

    "Dopiaza (Dave) has his birthday this weekend so I thought I'd write a testimonial.

    Dave is a good friend, amazing chef and an all round talented guy. I've had the pleasure of sampling his cooked delights and the fantastic food pictures and mouth watering descriptions live up to his culinary prowess.

    Dave's photographs always intrigue me and he has an amazing eye for beautiful compositions in things that we find around us on a day-to-day basis.

    His enthusiasm for other people's work is always refreshing and he inspires me to take better pictures. Thanks for being a friend and a fellow flickr-ite... Happy Birthday Dave!"
