I treated myself to a DSLR in May 2007 having previously used a compact , and having waited until the megapixels caught up with film!
I live in Scotland (middle).. so I have plenty opportunities to capture the beauty of this countryside roundabout me.
flickr, and the responses, support and the amount that I have learned from other flickrites just make this passtime more addictive!!


I have recently contributed a blog to this group about Loch Ard

Hee Haw But A Number says:
"David's images are always a joy to look at, every one of them uploaded always making me ask the question "how?"
One of the few photographers on here where if I get to the same level, I will be very pleased with myself.
Plus he's a nice guy!"3rd August, 2009

dobienet says:
"David is simply one of if not the best landscape photographer shooting in Scotland today. His work is inspiring and quite frankly makes me sooooo envious! Keep it up David."

John Dera says:
"Of the enormous pool of talent that capture the infinite variety of Scotland's landscape, Ouldm01 is off the radar to his closest rivals in churning out image after image with the skill of a master craftsman.
Surely there is life beyond Flickr for this super talented individual............... a new star is indeed born."27th January, 2009

AJ Scapes says:
"All of Davids work is of exceptional quality but the one thing that really draws me to his images is the way they communicate a wonderful atmosphere... from tranquility to turmoil. He has a natural eye when it comes to searching out those scenes that have that magic balance of light and shade in a way that draws you into the image. He is a superb photographer who is obviously dedicated to his art and I shall be viewing his photostream regularly in the future."

"David has been a contact of mine for a long time. He never fails to deliver striking images of the Scottish landscape the really evoke to feel of place, the weather, the rich colours and textures.
His camera and composition skills are superb and he has always been a helpful and encourgaing contact.
I cannot recommend enough that you take some time to browse his photostream - it is superb."7th November, 2008
