I really like this one.  Erie yet beautiful.  Wonderful comp.  This one is my very favorite I think

Mr Mawkins of Laddus Drove

 

I absolutely love this guy!  What a pose!

G20 - Big Brother

 

another wonderful character

Juggling Jim of Kings Lynn

 

This is really cute.  Wonderfully done

We lost our umbrella today!

 

Love this.  I came up with at least a handful of stories, by only looking at it for a few minutes.  The light is superb

Is somebody there?

 

Oh my goodness! lol  look at him! 🙂  perfect timing.

Duck!

 

Really like this shot too.  Normally, I would say “Hey!  Couldn’t you have shot this differently without that person behind him?”  Cluttered background…but in this case I think it adds interest.  All I know is it kept me looking

G20 Dog

 

lol fantastic!

I like that I learned a little about your world going through your port, and saw things I never saw before.  Like this snap

Is it a witch cat?

eeeewwww but interesting as heck.  I never heard of that before

 

There are a lot of “just snaps” like these

Quack!

Supergirl

but I like the way you document, and I feel you know the difference as well, so it doesn’t bother me at all that they are there along side your photographs.

 

Stay away from frames and odd editing like this.  Your photography doesn’t need it, and it just makes them look cheap.  STOP IT!!!!

I honestly can’t see you being a family portrait tog, and I hope you don’t start going in that direction.  (This is meant to be a compliment by the way)  I CAN see you maybe covering events for hire, with a little research, and study behind you.  I think you could handle documenting for people very well.  One thing I noticed, is even when the light is less than ideal, you are able to trump it by capturing an expression or moment, that makes it interesting, and makes it work.  Portraits are not like that in anyway.  It’s all about the light, focus, posing, attention to detail, etc.  I think it would kill you, and kill what I see in your photography.  AND it could turn you into a serious fauxtographer
