I was born in 1967 in the town of Chelmsford which is right in the centre of the beautiful county of Essex in the south east of the United Kingdom and I've lived in this wonderful historic town ever since so that makes me an unashamed Chelmsford enthusiast, so you will find many local photographs in my photostream. Also you'll find my cats 'Charlie and Freddie's together with anything else that interests me in particular anything to do with the weather, trains railways, cars, signs and local history.

I'm not interested in the quality of photographs only the subject matter in them. Please feel free to leave comments on any of my postings. All my own comments and notes will all be about the actual event or places within the photograph so please no advice on how to improve my compositions etc 'cos I aint interested.

Any scans of Magazines, car brochures or postcards are my own items and have been scanned on my scanner and not ripped from elsewhere on the internet. If I think they're in the Flickr interest regardless of what they are I'll post them.

All photographs in my photostream are location geotagged where appropriate and the correct date as near as can be that the photograph was taken is listed.

I've also been given access to hundreds of old and new photographs taken by David, a colleague and friend of mine and i've been given kind permission to post these in my photostream for your enjoyment.

Please note: if you wish to link any of my photographs on an external website that's fine. Please copy and paste a clickable link back to the original flickr photograph page you wish to use.

I have now stopped the download of original file size and use of the HTML code of the photographs and due to some people abusing this method and claiming some of my stuff as their own particually on photo montages on YouTube. If you would like a full size JPEG instead of a pasted link for your website please flickrmail me and i'll send you the file (but please photo credit and copyright to me and a clickable link back to the original photograph as per flickr rules)

If you have anything that I class as pornography in your photostream or favourites please do not comment or favourite any of my photos and do not add me as a contact. If you do I will block you. This is non negotiable.

Enjoy all the photographs and kind regards

    Tailer's Family - journeying! says:

    "As someone who has a BTEC and C& G in Photography as well as being a photographer all my life:

    (a) I like your work very much, the composition is great;

    (b) I like your presentation very much, to someone who lives on the other side of the world and has no experience of what you are showing us. - I would think that with your presentation you will give them a very good idea at what they are looking!

    Personally I avoid Groups where they rate your work as I feel that it is a very personal matter!
    I very much subscribe to:-
    "No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions, and to build confidence in the creative spirit.
    Ansel Adams"

    No doubt you will have already picked up ideas from other Flickr folks' work as you have posted your work to Groups! I look forward to seeing more of your work!"

    "I haven't had the good fortune to meet Stuart face to face but I've come to think of him as a good friend through his photos and thoughtful comments. He's a great soul with a gift for sharing and for caring. Thanks, Stuart, for sharing your photos, your wit and your friendship!"

    "I make a point of visiting Stu's photos every day and it is an honour to be the first testimonial here. His photostream is very varied and full of interest. I always like the traditional Essex village signs and Chelmsford 'before and after' comparisons, but my favourites are probably the burnt out and rusty cars. Long may this photostream flourish."
