...... I was a featured photographer in this fine group .. www.flickr.com/groups/jesuscm_favorites/discuss/721576279...

i was featured in this free book on Amazon .. www.amazon.com/ReTweet-Critique-Volume-1-ebook/dp/B006NOI...

. . i love all styles of photography street candids , HDR , macro , texturing , minimalism . etc.
I love it all and refuse to be pegged to one style . i may not get as much recognition as photographers who stick to one style .
but i am a traveler and i prefer to try all forms of photography . :)

Flickr has enabled me to exercise my passion in photography and if that was not enough . I also get to have a real feeling of friendship with wonderful people from all over the world . which is so cool cos I have traveled a great deal . (over 35 countries) and always the appeal for me was the people I met along the way .. this is a great journey for me . thanks so much ..

I joined Flickr . Dec 2008

The Earth will... Seascapes Voume 1 By Nick Kenrick Book Preview

i have two books published on photography here is the second one ... .....

I don't want to flood redbubble with my work, so if you wish to purchase a specific image let me know and I will post it there .

I adore poetry and love to marry my images with expressive words of wonder . here is one of my favourite poems ;

If It Is Not Too Dark

Go for a walk, if it is not too dark.
Get some fresh air, try to smile.
Say something kind
To a safe-looking stranger, if one happens by.

Always exercise your heart's knowing.

You might as well attempt something real
Along this path:

Take your spouse or lover into your arms
The way you did when you first met.
Let tenderness pour from your eyes
The way the Sun gazes warmly on the earth.

Play a game with some children.
Extend yourself to a friend.
Sing a few ribald songs to your pets and plants -
Why not let them get drunk and wild!

Let's toast
Every rung we've climbed on Evolution's ladder.
Whisper, "I love you! I love you!"
To the whole mad world.

Let's stop reading about God -
We will never understand Him.

Jump to your feet, wave your fists,
Threaten and warn the whole Universe

That your heart can no longer live
Without real love!

~ Hafiz ~

MvMiddendorf says:

"Nick is a true friend as well as a brilliant light painter.
A very rare combination these times.

He always surprises with great creativity as well as very kind and esteeming comments!

It is good to call him a friend and it is good to know that some men are still able to live these values...

Your Mario"

"I find zedzap's work to be truly inspiring. Every time I visit his stream, I see something I am totally amazed by. And each picture is different from the other. And it is more than a picture. It is Art. I don't know if I can say this about very many people. The ability to combine Art and Photography is not easy but zedzap seems to have done this well in a way that makes each of his work a masterpiece. I look forward to seeing more of his work and learning from it as well. Thank you for allowing me to be an audience to your work."
