beautiful blue bokeh balloon


Purchase prints from me on Etsy
So I have me one of those Etsy shops now where you can buy many of the lovely things you see on my stream. I can't link you to it from here or flickr would frown maliciously at me but I can link you to sparks of fire where the Etsy link is nice and prominent at the top of the page. Hurrah!


The things
5D Mk II (Aga). 40D (aaaarrrrooonnnnn). 50mmf/1.4 (the fifty). 135mmf/2 (cavill). One love. That's it.


Presets
Some of the presets I occasionally use are available for free download right here. Enjoy. Let me know if you like them.


Getty
A bunch of my shots can be licensed through Getty Images. Go me and all that.

    "Harold is, in my humble opinion, the most hilarious man on Flickr. Intentionally, I think. He is also one of the only balloons on Flickr, at least to my knowledge. He's a brilliant poet, an excellent photographer, and an all-around wonderful person. I like to think of him as some sort of post-processing Sensei. He is skilled in the art of wit, and, but not limited to, severe awesomeness. Much like a ninja, yes?
    He is, as dino says, 'invincible'."

    "Whenever I need a laugh I come to visit Harold! He is without a doubt the funniest man on Flickr!!

    And the "Comment of the Year Award" most definitely goes to Harold!! He writes the best and most original comments and I almost always have a chuckle at whatever he has written on my stream!

    A must mention - Harold's bokeh shots are out of this world! Especially his daisery ones - they are my faves:)

    Thanks for the laughs Harold!

    "Harold, I bow to your bokeh mastery :-) I am in awe since I found Harolds photostream - such a great talent, original and funny! I look forward to Harolds posts as they are always a source of inspiration but they also always leave me with a smile on my face:-)
    I'm delighted that we are flickr friends and "Thank you for the Bokeh""

    [ r ♥ c e y t ♥ y ] {I br♥ke for bokeh} says:

    "With his faithful 50mm f/1.4 and his flamethrower at the ready, harold.lloyd fears nothing. Not flare, not bokeh, not brain eating zombies with a taste for yoghurt. He is invincible. Don't believe me? Have a look through his photostream, if it doesn't leave you breathless, reaching for your thesaurus in search of superlatives, and utterly convinced chances are you might be a zombie. The man knows his way around a camera.

    Oh, and he's funny as all hell."

    "Harold is a master at creating magical bokehs. He can take you to dark, lonely places or to enchanted dreamy heavens with every upload. He is a faithful, funny contact. But don't be misled by his bokehs, as he once said, he is not only flowers and bokeh!
    Take the time to visit his stream, I'm sure you will, like me, be amazed at every shot!"
