Love the contrasting colours, shapes and textures.

Fiona, surprisingly (because I don’t do pubs as a habit), yes, I had a great time on the night. I probably won’t go back until we take them down from the walls though.

“Photographers do this for a living, every single day—they point their lenses toward every single corner of our world and somehow make the mundane mesmerizing through their artistic eye. It’s all a matter of being aware of your surroundings and realizing that there are some really amazing and interesting things to look at, even if it may just be something so simple as a wall being covered up by paint.”

Thanks Steve.
It always bewilders me when I hear such high praise of my work. You see, I have no formal training. I simply see what I like, I find the best stance or position from which to compose, I compose the shot, and I fire away. These days I am a LOT more selective on my choices, and can tell when an image has failed or worked. When with a crowd of photographers, I’ll be the guy shooting from a completely different direction that nobody understands at the time.
The quote I like immensely. I just wish this was a ‘living’, a career and a money-maker that paid for the mortgage. But alas, it is merely an online hobby that surpassed all other passions (except the wife of course!). Thanks for your honest compliment upon my artwork.
Critical Vision
