I'm a Cumbrian stranded in Lancashire, my heart will always belong to my home town of Burneside. I now live in Lancaster with my girlfriend.

 

If you have browsed through some of my blurred images you will see my other family, Zak the leaping dog, Ziggy the posing dog and Misses Puss the self centered feed me now cat.

 

I try to carry my camera around with me whilst dog walking and pretty much snap anything that catches my eye, i'm totally amateur and have no great expectations of my photography skills. If some people choose to browse my photo's that's fine, i welcome comments both good and bad.

Enough for now..........................

 

Just to add a little more.........

I don't care much for architecture, it does nothing for me and is not natural. I don't comment much on people or their profiles unless I have an uncontrollable urge too

 

One more thing also, I appreciate the visits and some comments but please do not add me as a contact if you are not going to comment on my photographs as you will be deleted if you show no interest in them.

By not commenting you get in the way of my real friends and contacts whom I hope I show a true and real loyalty to

Zak is a scary talented, out spoken, kind ,super sensitive soul , a crusader of right, and will stick his nose in to defend and doesn`t give a shit whos watching because he marches to his own tune............independant, yet loves the spotlight.............astute, and clever as one can easily observe by his quick wit ......... and extraordinary talent of cutting to the chase and mesmerizing the masses and all the while gauging the scene to see where he will strike next!!!!!!!!!! That takes smarts.......... and that takes high intelligence.............. and sensitivity which he hates to show.............better to be the court jester than be held totally accountable.........One of the smartest, complex souls and quick studies I have watched and listened to on Flicker .......and yet......... we really haven`t had the opportunity to joust because........ I like to win as much as he does......... and I like him too much to have hurt feelings as we both have the immaturity to get carried away ..and that is good............ sometimes............because that keeps you young and sharp.. I do like him, and respect him as you wont find anybody more loyal when it comes right down to it...........and in reality he is very no nonsense guy even though he loves to joke...........an actor and a very quick study.........Now take everything I have just commented on and add Tremendous photographic skills which will totally FUTM ( Denise you can tell him but it must be kept a secret) and you have definatly one of the better artists/ photographers on flicker and I`m fucking pissed as hell that I`m not there with all you guys because with Zack you have the finishing touch of exhuberance added to all the specialness of Denise, Nic and Damian ..............."My British Posse".... and I can only share it with you through a computer screen ( you guys crying yet lolololololololo )...You Zak are the kind of person who is loyal beyond measure......... and true beyond Testimonials. Your talents are truly special and better than most and nobody and I mean nobody does boat water shots that speak the way yours do!!!!!! Just looking at genius work like Lindis farne,Semi submerged,reflection, Two Coots,Duckiness a plenty, or Vroom and Summer had past.. and when you view these masterpieces...... .you realize your viewing a master of his style ...........and its very overwhelming because you realize how good he is at post work as well as how clever he is at image taking...............We haven`t really talked much.......... I don`t know why............ but he has been overly kind to me and I might not say it much ........but im trully honored to know him and I hope the friendship grows as much as my respect for him has already...........Howard..............Fucking Right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. Oh and by the way Zak ...........I know you .........because I know myself.........and I get by ............if you know what I mean.

Well it already looks like your a very popular guy mate from all the comments and these testimonials. Well Zak as he is known on here, what a great guy not only was he the first person to comment on one of my pictures when I joined here and made me feel welcome. He gives me great feedback and makes me laugh. His pictures are inspirational and if you have not looked thru all his photos then I would recommend it as all his pictures are amazing. So from receiving my first ever comment to now and all the great comments and conversations I have with Zak, I see him more as a friend now than just a contact. Hope you had a good Christmas mate thats if your days off werent just spent sleeping.

What a photographer! What a guy! It doesn't surprise me what i have read in FZ's other testimonials. A person is truly blessed if they can call him a friend. His photography skills are enviable, each capture he shares seems to portray so much of his thought, vision, artistic skill and empathy with each of his subjects. He is a true nature boy, adoring the natural habitat that surrounds him and the creatures that live within it. I love seeing each and every one of his offerings and am often blown away by what i see. Aside from all that talent malarky, he really is a truly brilliant fella, kind, loyal and with a wicked sense of humour- often of the naughty schoolboy variety. Seeing Fz's pictures and hearing from FZ the person always makes me smile.

There really is nothing i can say about Zak that hasn't already been said. He is an amazing person and an amazing photographer. He inspires me with every photo. Zak has the best sense of humor (humour) and the kindest heart. He is kind to everyone and fiercely loyal to those who need defending. He is a story book prince. He sees the beauty in the world around him, he sees the humour in the world around him and he gives unconditionally. I wish that I had the ability to describe how wonderful Zak is, but i do not. I do not think that anyone could. Thank you, Zak, for adding me as a friend.

Flickrzak’s humor, wit and charm are nearly equal to his amazing talent with a camera. He sees and captures things few will ever dream to experience. He has been a source of encouragement and strength since I first came to flickr. He has touched my life in a way never be to forgotten. His love for nature is second to none and so well communicated in his magnificent photos. Unique, is he, both as a photographer and as a man.

flickrzak is a delight! His photos never fail to amaze me. The clouds in his shots always give me "cloud envy"! The cat photos are unique and so full of life and vitality. He heads out with his camera, rain or shine, and always finds something interesting to shoot. It is a pleasure to view his photostream. And his personality...he makes me smile so much my face starts to hurt! Seriously, he has the most amazing wit, personality and charm. He was one of my very first contact/friends on flickr and he will always be one of my favorites. He inspires me with his work and encourages me with his very much appreciated comments. Thank you for being such an awesome flickr friend!!
