Born and spent the first half of my life in London, I now I live and work in Dundee. I love Scotland and its rugged and wild places (and friendly folk...) I think it's a great place.
I thought I'd travelled and seen a fair bit of the world until I started to colour in the map, shows how wrong you can be...
Pictures I take as I see them, and try to capture the feeling of the moment, often less than perfectly, with whatever camera is to hand.
For many years I carried an Olmpus SLR with many lenses as a result I have a groove worn in my shoulder and draws and draws (and more draws) full of photos gathering dust!
I think that's why I like Flickr, share the pictures and if others enjoy them it's a bonus...
I've followed Chelsea's fortunes since I was seven and I've been known to go to Dundee United games...

Si, hablo un poco de espanol, pero muy mal. Estoy aprendiendo. Gracias a Juan, Almu, Jose y otras.
Mi gusto el mundo hispanico.
Soy de Londres, ahora viviendo y trabajando en la ciudad de Dundee. Encanto Escosia y los paisaes silestres (la gente de escosia son muy simpaticos... ) Creo que es un pias perfecto para mi.

Bruce McKay Yellow Snow Photography says:
"What can you say about a devouted family man who can Toast to the Haggis at the same time as dreaming about sport cars and bikes. Not much so I won't. :P
OK I love Dave's pictures, humour and his humanity. I am honoured to be his friend. I look forward to each installment of the Life of Dave."24th January, 2009

"Dave (aka Fingeronthebutton) has been encouraging and helping me to take better photos literally from the first day we met, and has passed on many a good bit of advice over the years. I have learnt a lot from him.
As a photographer, he has the enviable knack of naturally finding the best or most interesting angle for a picture. Combined with his ability to conjure up imaginative shots from even the unlikeliest of subjects this makes a dip into his photostream a pleasant and well worthwhile experience. There are many delightful and interesting shots to be found there and I am sure many more new ones will follow. I know that he also has at least a ton of older 35mm slides which would be worth a look too."20th December, 2006
