I love photography. I am a writer and author of many books. I love wild, open places, gardens, and flowers. I am a husband and father (three boys and a girl). Contemplate, take action, tell stories.

HAROLD DAVIS is an award-winning professional photographer and author of more than thirty books, including Creative Composition: Digital Photography Techniques (Wiley), Creative Night: Digital Photography Tips & Techniques (Wiley), Creative Close-ups: Digital Photography Tips & Techniques (Wiley), The Photoshop Darkroom: Creative Digital Post-Processing (Focal Press) and Practical Artistry: Light & Exposure for Digital Photographers (O’Reilly).

Please view a portfolio of my images, check out my blog, view some of my publication credits or visit my Digital Night website.

    "Colourfully sharp, delicately vibrant, amazingly poignant!
    there are more words to describe Harold's photos that there is room for.
    I'll settle for Brilliant."

    "I urge everyone to take some time to surf through Harold's diverse stream of photos. It doesn't matter what type of photo you enjoy taking or seeing, there will be plenty for you to see, including lovely landscape shots and some of the most amzaing macro shots you'll ever see. Plus, he's a very nice guy."

    Jeff Clow says:

    "Harold Davis is one of those rare talents here at Flickr whose photo skills make the viewer want to crawl into the macro world alongside his lens.

    He captures images that are so realistic...so crisp...and so beautiful....that it is easy to find yourself immersed in a smaller world that seems so visually appealing.

    On top of being a world class shooter, Harold is also an involved member of the community here, and regularly takes time to comment and encourage others in their efforts to become better photographers.

    Harold is a class act all the way and we're fortunate to have him within the Flickr community...."
