I'm a simple man but one on a mission! I long to improve my photography particularly of people, but most run the other way when i get the camera out!

I'm pleased to accept any comments on my photographs, i welcome it, so please let me know what you think!

In August 2010 i welcomed a new member to my family, Sophie. She has become my muse, i love taking photographs of her as much as i can and intend to use Flickr to document some of the events in her life, so i hope you enjoy them.

Increasingly on Flickr people are very kindly wanting to use photographers images for usage on a variety of websites. What others feel is up to them, but personally i have no issue with anyone using my images as long as they are under license. I realise it costs but i have a duty to protect my work, any proceeds will only ever go to making Sophie's life better. Please don't ask me for free usage of the photos, its nothing personal but if you want to use them, contact Getty Images and license them. It keeps you on the right side of the law and buys Sophie a new toy! For which i would add you will always have a Golden Retriever as a friend!!
