Testimonials"To me Paul is a great photographer and story teller. He can bring the most ordinary subjects come to life with his photography and story telling skills, a great combination. Thank you Paul for all of your wonderful comments and help. You have inspired me from the first time I saw your photos and made me laugh many times. You are a dedicated Flickrfriend that I am proud to have as a close contact! :0) Your friend, Wendy" "This is going to be a very simple and honest testimonial - I have no doubt after quite a few months of not only exchanging ideas and comment with Paul vis Flickrmail but also having the great pleasure to sit back and look at his visions in photography that he is one of the best on Flickr. A genuine nice guy, helpful and knowledgeable, Paul work is so detailed and original that every time I have a look at the portfolio I am amazed out how clear and detailed and how wonderful he manages to capture quite often very simple scenes and turn them into photographic documentary....pleasure to know you and a pleasure to comment on your work - Ducatirider is certainly not on a 50cc runaround but racing away riding a 750cc superbike - well done mate." "This stream speaks for itself! Paul has God given talent! Beware.... his stream can be addictive!" "Paul is an artist with a huge range of interest and skill. I have seen his hard bitten military images to is soft and delicate floral work to his mind blowing landscapes.... The talent just oooooooozzzzzzzzzzes out of him. Keep up the great work!!!" "What to say about Paul...a man of many talents and views. I get mesmerized by the scenery, the details in the smallest of nature that he manages to notice. I tend to walk by those images, but, now, I seem to stop and "smell the roses", or, at the least, notice them. His imaging on our heroes, his own family and other aspects of life here on earth are just as wonderful and captivating. It's fun to come here and take a fresh breath of air with Paul and through his imaging. His light nature and humor tell me he's more than just a good photographer." "Paul's photographic talent is vast and varied. He's never got a boring shot on his photostream and he's always giving you a taste of something different. From the streets of NI, to the cuteness of labrador's, pauls photostream has something for everyone. I have to say that coming from NI, its these shots that grasp me the most. Paul's photojournalistic talents really shine through with these shots. they're emotional, thought provoking, and just sheer heart gripping. This is definitely one man's photostream you have got to see as paul's an amazing photographer and as a person, he's friendly, witty and really really helpful. There is not as many a genuine person as he is and i'm proud to be one of his contacts. keep up your good work paul, happy snappin jx" "I rank my friend Paul Crispin among the likes of Lee Miller, Phillip Jones Griffiths and Don McCullin, and if you take a look at his Northern Ireland set, you will too. His NI pictures tell of the fear, loneliness, humanity and humour of the serving soldier, technically brilliant, thoughtfully composed and uniquely seen, a touching and historical record of that conflict. Paul's other pictures are either brilliantly clever, funny, compassionate or just plain beautiful images, all with the "Ducatirider" trademark, and easily distinguished as his own. Not only is he an ace snapper, but he has a Labrador....something to recommend any man, and rides the coolest bike in the world! I love to visit Paul's photo stream on a daily basis, and once you've visited, you'll want to come back, time and time again. Thank you, Paul, for being a great Flickrfriend!" "Paul Crispin is a great flickr friend and wonderful photographer. I truly enjoy view his diverse stream with fantastic HDR landscapes, documentary military photos, personal images, and of course a few motorcycles. I appreciate Paul's humor, helpful comments, and activity on flickr. Be sure to take a look through this photo stream. I'm sure that you will not be disappointed." "there are many, many great photographs on Flickr as we all know. To my mind there are not nearly so many sets that are so memorable as Paul's one on The Troubles. His Northern Ireland set is well observed, personal & technically excellent. Not only that, it symbolises hope in difficult times for the whole world that just sometimes - things get better. Paul shares my interest in HDR so please look at his colour work as well. Needless to say, all his work is of a high standard." "i first discovered ducatirider's photos through one of the many flickr groups. he commented on one of my pictures. i found his critique was fair and just with a nice edge of humour. the name was an instant fave as a fellow motorcyclist. the quality of ducatirider's landscapes take your breath away when you view them. The viewer is drawn into the image and wants to explore more. This is what photography should do. The newspapers loss was our most definite gain." |
