Describe myself...... Not something I'm usually given to doing, so I'll keep it fairly brief, well brief-ish.....
So with me, pretty much what you see is what you get....
I Love photography, love photoshop, love having a good laugh, I'm nearly always upbeat and annoying (in a good way), love trying anything new, love scaring the cr*p out of myself..... Hate arrogance, hate ignorance, hate people who try to be something they're not, hate being serious for too long and I don't do stress unless it's absolutely essential.....
Ummmm..... guess that pretty much sums me up.
If you take the time and effort to comment on any of my shots, I will always do my best to return the compliment and look at your stream and comment too.

Ah, Brian...fortunately for me, he was one of my first contacts on Flickr. Not quite sure how that has worked our for him ;0) His was the first HDR image I had ever seen, and it opened my eyes to a completely new way of viewing a scene and bringing it to life. Never overdone, and always spot on fantastic, he masterfully creates a work of art each and every time. Never at a loss for humorous quips, his comments are something I look forward to as well. He has offered his opinions and assistance freely, and has inspired my own beginning forays into the world of HDR. I'm grateful for his encouragement and positive outlook. He is a great example of true talent and a perfect ambassador for the Flickr community...even if he is a slug ;0) Thanks Brian for sharing your enhanced version of the world with the rest of us...it's quite the view!.

Ok here goes & I know I have to be nice, Brian (my little brother) has always been & will always be an artistic little sod. He has an eye for a shot & can make it into something special with his processing. Sense of humour,,,,,,,,,,,,,Brian has one in abundance & likes nothing more than some good old fahioned banter, he always takes whats thrown at him with good grace & can return the missiles in equal measure without offending. Brian's artistic brain is often picked by others(us included) & he is always gracious enough to share some of his secrets,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,long may he continue. phew those few kind words have left me feeling nauseous.

Your work is fantastic. I have noticed a common theme throughout many of your images and it is something you do better than anyone else I share with on flickr. Many of your images combine seperate elements that you bring together in a brilliant and superb way. Whether headstones and a building or seperate walls that converge, no one displays this technique like you. Your work shows style and that is beyond great photography, that is excellence. Best Regards, Steven Bulman

I came into this game with my eyes wide open and was looking at a mountain of a learning curve. When I looked around in the first instance I was looking for photographers local to me. I stumbled upon Brian’s work and recognised places that Joe public would not normally see so I knew he was local. I have always been impressed with the work you see here and the attention to detail that Brian puts to all of his work. He was gracious to give me a lot of time in teaching me some of his wisdom and gave me a good start in the DSLR world. I am grateful for his time and I also enjoy his great sense of humour. Keep up the good work me ol mate, it allows other people to know where they should be heading.

Brian is an absolute master of HDR and Photoshop but this hides his talent as a photographer. His work is always superbly composed and his nature shots are as good as they get. A great contact, who I am proud to have as a flickr friend.
Many, many people do HDR on Flickr, few do it as well as Brian. Take a look at his wideangle shots - awesome!
