Rob Lightbody's photostream
|
Hi there, thanks for looking! I live in Glasgow's West End and love it here although I was raised up the road in Milngavie.
Flickr is my very favourite site on the internet and has given me back an interest in photography and makes me try harder to take good, interesting photographs.
My photos are not heavily computer edited except for the occasional cropping or straightening. I'm not interested in images which are heavily computer altered.

"There are some photographers who shine through the quality of their work. And there are others who are immensely knowledgeable about their subjects and use photography to illustrate this knowledge. Few have both qualities. Rob Lightbody is one of these few.
He conveys the atmosphere of Glasgow and the Highlands. He has a keen eye for water, light and weather. Gifted with great patience, he is willing to wait for the right moment and the right light to get the perfect image. He often provides helpful additional background.
As a friend and contact, he is generous and enthusiastic with his comments, and I have learnt a lot (or rather, copied a lot!) from him.
No testimonial for Rob could be complete without mentioning his huge love and enthusiasm for the Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2). His are some of the best photographs taken during the ship's final years. These are treasures which will surely find their way into records and books. My favourite photo of 2008 is this one :

His 2009 photos are likely to turn me into a Mini enthusiast!"2nd January, 2009
