Dave have you ever exhibited your work ? If not you really should...you're stuff is visually beautiful, poignant and well really fantastic (gush, gush but it blummin well is ) but also an important and interesting record of local history etc. Also have you ever made a book ..I'm guessing you already know about this :
  http://www.blurb.com/ 
It seems quite straightforward and at a reasonable cost and you can also find out about publishing your own book....maybe a Three Towns Book...... $walesflag$
That's very kind of you to say so.  :-[ It's only a hobby really, although I do sell a steady stream of prints via Fester's website at www.llandudno-emporium.com and I've licenced images to quite a few organisations like Visit Wales etc.  :)

If anyone is interested, there are several thousand of my photos here:

I like to think of it more as OUR website Dave, seeing as you do all the creative stuff.... and I do all the bubble wrapping and posting!

If you do decide to hold an exhibition there are quite a few places to consider. Venue Cymru, Oriel Colwyn, Conwy Civic and the libraries to name a few. It's a great way to get your work out there even if it is just a hobby....having an exhibition is fun :) Sort a decent selection of your work - maybe stick to a theme ie 'Derelict Buildings Of North Wales' or some such title, get prints, greetings cards and business cards printed out, have an open night with the obligatory wine and nibbles...invite all your friends and family, tell the local papers even.... and Bobs yer uncle!  $good$ Just a thought like........

Amazing view over Llandudno from Happy Valley last night around 8pm. I only had my phone with me, so quality is not as I would like. But it is the type of view you only get rarely and for a very short time.

Seen today, CCBC's parking restrictions seem a bit extreme:

I love the first two also.
The first one looks like a painting and the second one like an etching.
I was hoping you might get interested in photographing gardens so that you might come and take some for us!
I presume you have done something with these images on Lightroom or whatever?
They do not look quite natural.
If they are altered what did you do to them?
I don't suppose it is possible now to see what it looked like originally if they are altered?

I agree...the second one is very fairytale-esque, wow, lovely!
