Welcome to my Flickr account.

Please note that if you decide to follow me and/or 'favourite' photographs in my photostream , I expect you to have some of YOUR OWN PHOTOGRAPHS, NOT JUST 'FAVOURITES' for me

and others to see, otherwise I will block you. So please enjoy what I have to show.

My pictures are mostly from my cameras with some from the family plus others from friends, colleagues and various postcards and photographs by others. Copyrights where appropriate are acknowledged.

In the 1960s I spent a lot of time around the Bristol Docks and nearby and subsequently wished I had spent more time and used more film!
