Hi All, Just a quick hello. My daughter Elise, turned two a little while back, how time flies! I do hope you are all out there still enjoying your photography and art, and my apologies that I have negleted DA for a while. Just a quick word though, some people have been using my photography for designs/artwork etc without asking permission first.  May I remind you that I consider this as theft! 90% of the time when people ask, I am more than happy to grant permission, but there are some peices that I really dont want to be used.  I really dont want to have to remove my work from DA, or to have to watermark, but if it continues I will! :D

A few people have asked "How do you produce those pictures where everything is black and white except the eyes?" Well, ask no more, I have created a video tutorial for you all to view. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNvlvo2vS8o Let me know if it helps, and if you would like to see more....if you would like more, let me know on what subject. Cheers, Ben

Hi All, Been rather busy lately, so sadly not got any photography done recently. Bought a TomTom One which is a great little gadget, definately helps someone like myself, who is bloody awful with directions! The little one (Elise) is growing up SO quickly, and can now sit up by herself, and she has starting saying Daddad, which is so sweet.  She has a bit of an eye infection at the moment, so I have had to get up at 2am to clean her eyes. She has also started playgroup, so its nice for her to interact with other children. Anyhoo, my apologies for not being around recently, and I am sorry I havent had a chance to comment on everyones phot
