My Bio
Hi, the names Rob and I live in good ol' Blighty.

I'm a budding amateur photographer and rather enjoy exploring the country taking photos. I love old ruins of castles, old stately homes, abbeys, churches, chapels and priories, as well as exploring grave yards and looking at the architectural styles there and the old grave stones. I know that sounds morbid, but believe me, there is a lot of beauty to be seen in these places if you look.

I also like to dabble in using long exposure and taking light photos and other artistic attempts. These range from the long exposured light pics to macro pics of flowers, stone, and other textures. I do enjoy doing some experimental photography and whilst not everything works out as I'd plan, I do still get some good pics.

And it's not just the plain pics, I do sometimes tweak the odd pic with some editing software, just to experiment and play with the colours, contrast and darkness/light.

I thought I'd join up here and share some of my favourite pics with you lovely people and share my love of photography. I'm rarely seen without my camera when out exploring the country, as there's always a photo to be had.
Like it says, it's been a while since I last uploaded any pics here. And I may say, quite a few things have happened in that time. A wee jaunt to Wales has resulted in over 1700 photos being taken, of which some of my favourites have found their way onto here. We've done another weekend of re-enactment (photo's pending) and there has been more fun playing with light and exposure (again, photo's pending)! But, I think perhaps the most significant and important thing which has happened since I last graced these pages is that my awesome and beautiful girlfriend has agreed (rather foolishly) to marry me! So, I'm a much happier Rob. Hope you nic

Finally (rubs hands together gleefully) I now have a nice shiny new camera. And I have been working on several ideas which I would like to do, some involving a rather willing accomplice. Now; to get some free days and time off work to go out picture stalking... Hopefully I'll be able to come up with some nice new ideas and nice pictures for you nice guys to enjoy. :)

Well, after looking round this site for a great many years, I have finally deigned to join its ranks and display some of my photography. I'm only an amateur at the moment and whilst I may not have the greatest camera in the world, it still does take some good pics and I'd like to share my enjoyment of photography and some of my favourite pics with all you lovely people out there. :)

Thank you for the fav, Rob. I'm at Gallifrey in Los Angels this weekend, enjoying loads of Doctor Who stuff!
You're welcome. Have a great time there!
