I am a Husband, Father, son, dog-owner, rock music lover.

Football fan - Season-ticket holder (with my son) Shamrock Rovers FC (Dublin).

Camera Club member.

Rail & Aviation enthusiast.

All of my pictures are © so DO NOT USE THEM for any websites, blogs, downloads etc without my permission. If you do, it will be regarded as theft and I WILL pursue.

If you are interested in any of my pictures, please contact me by FlickrMail and we'll probably work something out.

I appreciate all comments, positive or negative, and am always open to advice. I try to learn from some of the fantastic photographers here on Flickr, by looking at their EXIF data if available and learning from their composition and post-processing. I use Lightroom 6, Affinity, Luminar NEO & Luminar 4. For HDR, I try Aurora HDR. I use 'post' to clean and tidy my originals up. While I agree with cloning out some small stuff, I totally disagree with replacing skies etc as this is getting into composites (in my opinion) which is a genre I have ZERO interest in.

AI is the enemy :-(

If I add you as a contact and you do not do the same, no problem! If you add me as a contact and you have nothing to show, I will BLOCK you immediately.

If you fave one of my photos and you have nothing available for me to view, I will block you.

I try to visit contact streams as often as possible so please be patient if I miss out on giving comments. I do catch up eventually.
