Boatman-on-the-Humber
Welcome
Hi,welcome to my Boatman-on-the-Humber photo gallery,started April 1st 2006.

As you can guess by the title I work as a Boatman,covering all of the Docks on the north side of the Humber as well as the Jetties at Saltend.I've been on the Docks for around 8 years now,starting off in charge of berthing P&O Ferries then moving over to a private Boatage firm,(more variety,as no two days are the same).
As from Dec 07 now working as Lockheadman for ABP covering all three docks.

I've always liked photography and started on ships about 12 months ago through a friend and ship enthusiast Christopher Cartwright,I started taking photos for him as he doesnt get around as much as he used to,then the interest kicked on from there,amassing quite a collection of my own.

Future updates will see photos from the now,my collection,as well as other photos taken by good friend Dave H Smith and other donated collections.

My photos are taken with,NIKON D80 (10MP) from the 1st Sept 08 to present ,before this a NIKON COOLPIX E8800 (8MP) from 7th June and earlier images are taken with a Samsung A6 (6MP),it usually says under the picture as to what camera has been used.
To benefit from seeing the full picture on the screen,after clicking the thumbnail image,without having to scroll up and down press F11 at the top of your keyboard,obviously repress to go back to original state.

Thankyou for visiting my site,please call back to see future updates.
