CHRISTMAS IS NOW UPON US - AGAIN!!!

As they say "Christmas comes but once a year" and in case you hadn't noticed, it is now upon us.  I do hope that by now you have got all your shopping done and hopefully your "Santa's" list wasn't too top heavy with extra camera gear!!

Everyone you speak to at the moment usually mentions the weather and how bad it is, please don't be one of those snappers who puts there gear away when at the end of autumn until the early spring.  Get out there and capture some of the recent violent weather we have been experiencing, protect you camera and lens with a bin bag, vary your shutter speeds to more creative and your away. 

This year has not been a particular brilliant year for Carol and I primarily due to quite a bit of ill health one way and another, however the extremely good news is that we have just gained another grandchild, a baby girl, four weeks old at the time of putting this together.  This makes it a total of four, two girls and two boys.

Next year is already promising to be a very exciting and busy year, this includes a number of new courses and workshops as well as a few away shoots I am already scheduled for, the first one being to photograph Scottish wildlife in February, hopefully in deep and thick snow!!!

All the very best for the festive season and 2012 from Carol & John.

Gallery & Stock Images

You may recall earlier this year I was experiencing some very serious problems with my new Mac Pro which in turn delayed me uploading any new images and more importantly stopped me sending images to the libraries who represent me. Well I am extremely please to be able to say that once the staff at the "Apple Liverpool One" shop got involved matters where resolved without delay. A massive big thank you to the team at the "Apple Shop" in "Liverpool One" It is full steam ahead to produce and finalise more and more images for the agencies who represent me and of course for the gallery section of my site. Please feel free to have a look and visit my galleries.  If you cannot immediately find what you are looking for, just get in touch as we have thousands more images just ready and waiting.
