I know the focus is not good but I like it anyhow, in fact I think the movement adds to to:

Some more photos. These were taken at the farnborough airshow in the UK:

Btw, the first shot of the parachutist is not me taking it at a weird angle, he is flying straight towards the ground in that shot!

note : actually, realized you could have been talking about whoever lived there, strangely though, there were lots of those flags around, in Fermoy ???

AH right, I thought you'd taken it purposely to show the cats flag, but it works well because of the colour anyway

Lovely portrait Oshead.

Not being funny, just pointing out, but I spotted a mistake on your website - Under 'Your requirements' - in the paragraph stating your services there's a line that reads "Are you're planning an event?" - Recently made up a web page myself and when I had someone proof it there was dozens of errors!

Animal Rights they're all great shots but my favourite of the lot was really #182, striking, brought up a memory of a childhood story/fable illustration or something, am French so it could have been the "Crow and the Fox" (Jean de La Fontaine). The red flowers really add another dimension.

I'm going to attempt more shots of the Crows again this week but this time with a longer lens, these are all heavily cropped pictures as I only had a 70-200 lens with me that day, Crows are def hard to photograph because of their colour.

My sister took a pic of me with my nephew yesterday...

At lot of you know that I like to use quite heavy processing and go for a painterly look to my shots. Truth is I'd love to paint but am too lazy to get started. I love impressionism especially. I was experimenting with pushing the "painterly" thing a little further using the "art history" brush that is tucked away in a dark corner of photoshop. It allows you to transform your photos into "digital paintings". It takes a while and can be a bit fiddly but can be fun. Anyway, here is the result of a few of my experiments. I realise that these are really stretching the boundries of "what photography is" but it was fun to do. Although anyone who was at the IPF judging and saw the last panel in the A section will know just how far the definition of photography can be pushed.

Nicely done Barry, at this point I reckon I could identify your work at a kilometer away

While sitting in my car and indulging in a icecream oneday in the middle of a town I happened to look left and saw this lovely archway and cobbled entrance, it looked so out of place, I presume it had been teleported from another dimension !
