About me

Gender Male
Location Birmingham, United Kingdom
Introduction I live in Birmingham, England a city which has been described as "aesthetically challenged", a notion which I hope to disprove with my modest collection of photos here. I also travel to France quite a bit, particularly Nantes, which really is a beautiful city. Just upgraded to a Canon Ixus but really want an SLR to do my photos justice! You can not make a silk purse out of a sow's ear and this certainly applies to photography.
