GROGG's photostream

I hope my photos will give you a glimpse through my eyes...

Please note the following vital notice!

Videos: My opinion on Flickr allowing videos on the account wrecks my head. I think Flickr is for photos! And Vimeo is for videos. Go see my profile....

Photo Permissions/Usage:
I've had a number of photos used without permission and I've had to call in the troops and support to get the photos taken-down/removed. Just ask. I've yet to decline.
Any charities can contact me via Flickr and I'd be glad to help your organisation out.

Where I've visited..... must head EAST!

"Greg has a great eye for photos but he also gives a lot. He gives comments which have a lot of knowledge but also a great amount of the famed Irish humour.

I salute you Greg - you're the sort of person that makes Flickr and keeps it to it's roots."

"Greg

Have no relationship whatsoever with my English as foreign Language tutor - Dr Anne Ryan; in my Univ of Wales.

I found him by accident on www.flickr.com

The last time I went to Ireland was 1986, 1987, I have not have a chance to visit Ireland since!! Now I can visit Ireland without leaving my home.

I am very impressed with his Skill & Artistic eyes.

All his work is consider of professional grade if not better. You would be glad that you visit his website more often.

I appreciate your every contributions to the web community, you are an young & outstanding icon!!

Thanks.........."
