***********************************************

 

In the interests of my own sanity, I try to keep a sensible number of contacts that I can actually keep up with, so please do not be offended if I do not make everyone a contact.

 

***********************************************

 

Much of my photography is influenced by nature, more specifically whether it's raining or not. If it's bright and sunny you can expect to see landscapes, beaches, rivers, views around town. If it's raining I will probably be routing through kitchen drawers and cupboards for my inspiration so expect macros. If it's night I'll probably be watching TV. Expect few photos.

 

Watching Over The Embers

 

I don't mind if you plaster my comments with awards and invitations but it's nicer to get relevant comments. Similarly I give awards and invitations when I feel more people would like to see your photograph. It is not "tit-for-tat" awarding. It's just another way of saying I like your photo.

 

~~~~~~~~~~

 

I use a Canon 400D (or Rebel xti if you're of a rebellious nature) with standard kit lens, though many of my earlier photos were taken with an Olympus compact at about 3 MegaPixels - a stunning little camera which I still use from time to time.

 

I have a truly fine collection of contacts and I urge you to take a look and make them your contacts too - I really do see and learn something new from them every day. What's more, together we have a great deal of fun, and in public too.

 

Home is Bridport, Dorset in the South West of England.

Testimonials

I always look foward to Nigel's work popping up in my contacts. It is often humourous, has real meaning behind it but all his shots are superbly composed and the processing is something I aspire to achieve. His photo's certainly brighten up my day and inspire me to get out and take photos.

I have no idea why it took me so long to stumble upon Nigel's work, but I'm VERY happy I finally did......besides just about EVERY. SINGLE. PHOTOGRAPH. in his stream being jaw-droppingly gorgeous, I can only reiterate what those who have come before me have said - in a word - INSPIRING! His work is what I want mine to be when it grows up.... :) And as if that wasn't ENOUGH, his is not only a stream filled with delicious eye candy, but he'll tickle your funny bone too, with his delightfully dry wit......what's not to love? Thanks Nigel, for the oooooh and aaaaahs -- and for creating a place to visit that guarantees to put a smile on my face, for ALL the reasons mentioned above. Bravo!

Every once in a great while, you encounter someone with just the right turn of phrase, sense of the ridiculous, passion for natural beauty, and innate creativity. The addition of a great photographic eye is an irresistible combo. I'm hooked on Finn's view of the world, the bucolic and often hilarious bits of his England. Thanks for making flickr so much fun.

The word inspiration is mentioned in the other testimonials here and it's easy to understand why. Coming across Nigel's pictures it made me reconsider the way that I took and presented my own work. Now, that's inspiration indeed. Looking through my stream it is easy to identify when I first added Finntasia as a contact. Nigel's work is intriguing, thoughtful and clever with a large vein of humour running through it all. Look and learn flickrettes it will do you the world of good. I did and it worked for me. Thank you, Nigel.

You will also be kept amused with his wonderful sense of humour on his unique take of the world. But you don't need me to tell you all this. Just grab yourself a coffee and a few spare hours and view his work for yourself. You won't be disappointed! (You can pay me later Nigel :)))
