About

This is the Photoblog of Richard Hollingworth. I live in Riverton NJ with my wife Diane and cat Oi. I started taking photos when I was a kid. I took O level photography at school and showed a decent flair. However, I never stuck at it. Over the years I was known as someone who could take the odd decent shot but not a "Photographer" 3 years ago I stumbled upon David Nightingales Chromasia It gave me the creative spark I needed.

Since then I have been taking pictures weekly. I started to post an image a day-something I recommend new photographers to do-but I have since slowed down now. My aim is to concentrate on quality rather than quantity. I have finally decided on what I like to shoot and if it means less photos then so be it.


Now a note on Comments

The one aspect I appreciate about blogging more than anything is that people take the time to visit my site. It might not be the numbers that Chromasia or the like rake in, but its enough. I appreciate it even more when visitors leave comments on my photos. I dont always reply to those comments but I will swing by the commenters site and if I like it, I will add it to my Eventbox. 

What I wont do is add comments to get comments. The comment game has got out of hand and I find it disappointing to see mediocre photos get hundreds of comments while great photos go unnoticed. On my part I intend to be more descriptive on my comments an ask that people point out what they see as flaws in my photos.
