lens buddy's photostream  

I have been taking photographs of pretty much anything and everything since I got my first camera in 1973 at the age of 16.

I live in Somerset, in the Southwest of England where there are lots of beautiful and interesting places to visit and photograph. My wife and I like to travel whenever we can and this opens up lots of new and exciting opportunities to capture that perfect picture (or mess it up, as the case may be!) I am so lucky to have a wife (Carol) who is so patient and supportive in all that I do and furthermore, joins in too!

I particularly love to photograph nature and wildlife and in the last few years found a whole new world waiting to be captured in my own back garden when I had a go at “macro” photography.

I joined Flickr in May 2009 and have found so much inspiration and new ideas by viewing other members’ photostreams. Feel free to look at my pictures and leave your comments or any constructive criticisms and I’ll always follow the links to come back and have a look at yours!

So whether I’m foraging around in the undergrowth, hiking up mountainsides or gazing at the moon, I’m as happy as a pig in mud when I’m behind a lens and camera!

Finally, I put my pictures on flickr for anyone to see, if you like them please tell your freinds and let them see them too. However, if you would like to download and use any of my pictures, I ask that you respectfully email me and ask my permission first (I have never refused anyone yet) Thank you and enjoy ...
