I'M A PHOTOGRAPHER DAMMIT, NOT A WORD SMITH

And that's not me being rude, I just like Star Trek

That should just about sum me up; I live to take photos, I ‘positively’ endure post processing and I love to make stunning prints for our home, my family and friends and to sell on my website but writing stuff just takes me bloody ages. Occasionally I’ll get an idea stuck in my head when preparing an image and it just seems apt to add some lyrics. But this misguided (oft repeated) decision is usually followed by a sleepless night of pitiful re-writes as I attempt to concoct a Shakespearean masterpiece from whatever detritus has been mistakenly trapped, seemingly forever, in my mind. So please, forgive me if I don’t write much.

But welcome to my website, I should at least say a few words about it’s purpose; my name is Barnaby Jaco Skinner, I put my photos on here and people like to look at them. Sometimes they even buy one. That’s pretty much it. I used to spread my images over a couple of websites but it started looking like I’d be spending the rest of my life administrating websites rather then taking nice photos so now I’m ‘virtually consolidated’ and hoping to keep it that way until the internet breaks and we revert to using smoke signals and tea leaves. I also maintain a minimalist blog and up-to-date portfolio as part of this site.

One word of caution though; I edit my web site on-the-fly because I don’t have time to work on backups of backups of backups and it also adds an element of excitement into something otherwise incredibly dull (no offense web devs). So if a design element or image or page or *cough* entire site *cough* goes AWOL you can be assured I have no no idea what happened and will be frantically trying to get it back.

Enjoy.
