Apology: Early postings on Flickr were designed to act as back up storage of photos with little or no edit. In hindsight this was a mistake and there is much that I would now wish to discard. Soon I will revisit the early uploads and sets and undertake an edit to improve quality - until then bear in mind there was little quality filtering in the early postings.
Friends/Contacts: Flickr is about photo sharing so don't be surprised if I don't add you as a contact if you have no photos to share or have no details on your profile.
Constructive comments from friends and contacts are welcome at all times.
Use: All photos on my photostream are my copyright and any use of same is prohibited without written consent. All rights reserved. I am however happy to consider any request for permission to use and generally give a positive response.
Testimonial: If you like my pics please add a wee testimonial - it would be very much appreciated. Existing testimonials have been issued to my previous Flickr name Rick's_Picks.

"Richard displays a fantastic photostream. Some photos are quite literally breath taking, as they show certain aspects to the Scottish culture in a realistic but absolutely beautiful manner.
It's a real shame I didn't stumble upon Rich's stream before visiting Scotland. I would have definitely rerouted my trip to hit some of the spots exhibited in here, and perhaps would have been lucky enough to have crossed paths with him.
I will definitely come back to Scotland, if only to witness Richard's Scotland :)

"Rick's Picks display the best of Scottish culture and should entice many a visitor north of the Border.

"Rick's use of the term amateur fails to convey the skill and abilities of this Scottish photographer. The range and varied subject matter never fail to delight and engross the viewer in a world rarely seen south of the border. An extremely talented photographer with a keen eye.

"Scottish photographic artist Rick's_Picks draws his viewers into an exquisitely captured world full of delicious wonder; still life, cityscapes, landscapes and candid people shots - all brought to life with poignancy, style and great flair. A marvellous inspiration."
