I'm constantly amazed at the imagination and artistry on Flickr. Looking at the photostreams of some of my contacts, they are beautiful, funny, thought provoking, inspiring and often barking mad. Most of the time I feel honoured just to be in their company. They make Flickr what it is and I love them for that.

I do some street photography, quite often in Liverpool. If I've taken a picture of you that you'd rather I hadn't please let me know. I'll almost certainly remove it.

    "i don't know anyone who can make a picture of a total stranger on the street look so familiar and intimate as iain. he has a wonderful eye for movement and color and seems to effortlessly capture the "perfect moment". it is always such a pleasure to see iain's work."

    "one of my first contacts that i added instead of blocked....maybe that was a mistake?
    sure, he lures you in with hey im just an English gent taking pictures of the grassy hills and fields of my beloved country thing....but next thing you know, he's got wild women! dressed in all sorts of fetishwear!
    spandex even! extensions in hair! black lipstick! Shimmery fabrics!
    i ask you, what is the world coming to?

    ;-)
    if it's coming to you through Iains eyes....take a seat, the view is always fabulous. thank you for sharing and being a good friend. :)"

    "Iain Francis Aka dear Lain in my side of the world is a lovely soul with the kindest words, the funniest comments( okay don't say that to Gina! oooh Gina you're here too, I was telling Lain how funny he is but how could he ever beat you ;))
    oops sorry.

    Iain is like a cheerful pixie friend you'd need in the pockets of your jeans everytime the weather gets too grey he'll come shine with his soul beams ^_^

    I am very glad to know you and count you as friend in the flickrworld
    and of course you take beautiful pictures with surely more techniques than I'll ever have.

    Blessed be my friend!"

    "I've just been informed Iain will read this before it's posted, so not to "bother with something rude or nasty". Damn. Ok, here goes Plan B.

    Iain is one of those kind souls who cheers your spirits and warms your cockles (steady lads...)
    He doesn't mince his words - but he's also loving and giving. Just like Friday's child.
    He's willing to come with me to some of the wilder shores of lunacy, and for that he deserves much more than this crummy testimonial.
    He also takes bloody good pictures. What's not to like?
    Your silence speaks for you."

    "Iain's one of the good guys in Flickrtown. He's cool and smart and sharp. But he does have one shout-out-loud special spanner in his toolbox. Want to know what it is? Here are some clues. It's one word with 8 letters and it starts with an 'H' and ends in a 'Y' and the 5th letter in an 'N'

    Give him a hug and he might squeak for you!"
