Where to start, well lets see....Kelly is one of the most talented and creative young individuals I have had the pleasure to meet on Flickr. I have known Kelly for a few months now and during that time I have been introduced to some of the finest original art form available through Flickr. Kelly has tremendous determination, drive and focus, all strong and pleasing attributes that enhance his creativity. Each shot Kelly produces is well though out and planned. While each image on it's own tells a story, Kelly adds additional narration that is well penned and presented, often providing the viewer with a deeper look and appreciation into his personal life. Kelly is young and already so talented, but it will be a real treat to see how he progresses over the next few years. Kelly already has some of his images hanging in a local gallery, and I am proud to say that I have one of Kelly's more famous prints hanging in my home, I hope to soon have more. So, do take the time to check out Kelly's photo stream on Flickr, you will find it enlightening and in many ways informative, and most of all you won't be disappointed...
