If you would like to use one of my photographs for something, I am more than happy to give premission. All you have to do is drop me a flickrmail to ask :) I just want to keep a record of it for my resume :)

 

My Dad gave me my first SLR camera for my 12th Birthday. Its a Fujica and i still have it, use it & love it. Many of my images here are scans from this camera.

 

Photography is one of the very few things I do in my life which is just for me.

 

I turned professional for a few years in my twenties doing portraits, band publicity photograps, and some freelance for local newspapers. It took the pleasure out of it though, so i gave it away and returned to it again a few years later just for fun.

 

I resisted going digital for quite some time, but then, like many, I was converted; due to its extraudinary capacity to take so many photograps - which one just wouldnt consider doing with film due to financial restraints. My digital camera is a hand me down (that helped too!) and I am looking forward to getting a better one one day when it gets to the top of my priority list for money allocation...

Claire's animal shots are something special. They're just not pretty pictures of pretty animals -- they capture personality in a way that a lot of photographers don't. Something magic happens when Claire points her camera towards a creature!

Claire is about to become one month old. She joined Flickr just twenty-six days ago but in that short time has already demonstrated to the world her splendid photographic skills from behind the lens. A trip through her wonderful photostream will soon reveal her great loves too, children, animals and nature. But what the pictures don't reveal - yet - is her great sense of humour. She is loads of fun and anyone fortunate enough to number her amongst their friends will find a true supporter.
