All my nature shots are taken "in the wild" and are not staged - just a guy wandering around with a camera. I also don't change the backgrounds, so if it isn't quite clean enough for you, blame nature.

Although I prefer nature photography - and particularly getting close to mushrooms and bugs etc - I enjoy experimenting with new themes and ideas particularly through the 100x Groups.

I have completed several 365 and 100x projects over the last 10 years, but have had to delete many images to keep under the Flickr free account limits. I had PRO for many years, but decided the cost just wasn't worth it.

Thank you to those who invite me to post my work to your groups - it is always nice to see people appreciate my pictures.

I do try to control the number of groups I am in and so am unlikely to join all those I am invited to. If I can't view the pool from your invite, I am very unlikely to post or join!

PLEASE NOTE - I use flickr as a means of sharing ideas with other photographers - not giving the world free pictures. All my work on here is copyrighted, so taking screenshots etc is basically theft and legal action may be taken.
