David Clapp Photography

Incredible shots and an inspirational portfolio... Thanks for sharing.

This is a beautiful set of seascapes / landscapes. Impossible to pick a favourite, look forward to seeing more. Very well done!

Amazing porfolio full of beautiful landscapes shots, David. One of the best portfolios of nature and landscapes! Congratulations.

Regards from Romania and all the best in 2007, Gabi B!

David, You don't have much in your profile, but if you're not selling these through galleries or art shows to earn a living, you certainly could be. That's up to you. Outstanding work!

Welcome to PN. Great to see a good selection of your seawork here. I love the rugged coasts you have captured so spectacularly. Really look forward to seeing these UK seascapes in person one day.

Hi David: Short but wonderfull gallery. I like your light houses and your landscapes. I Will watch you.

Yeah, it's only short because I am making sure I am getting the best stuff I can up there, it has given me a chance to redo all the old material and think about my best work. Once I have finished with The Sea, I will be sorting out The Land. Thanks for the comments so far, really appreciated!

'The sea' folder is an outstanding body of work. Dramatic scenes captured at their most interesting with flawless technique. I like the way you also have time for more subtle aspects of the landscape, such as 'Nanven Stone'. The Land folder also has gems - my favourite being 'Cornish Flat-top'.

Every one of these photographs can stand on its own next to the best that this site can offer. Well done Sir. Regards.

Complimenti per il bellissimo lavoro che sei riuscito a fare. torner� a trovarti per rivedere le tue opere. Grandi idee. Bravo david!!! Saluti dalla sicilia

David, you have a remarkable portfolio here. Your photos are truly unique and beautiful. Keep up the great work!

David - individually great shots and as a portfolio quite awesome.

David,

I Wish ... What a fantastic set of pictures.. An eye opener Thanks

David,

One of the joys of this site is the ability to, every now and again discover a portfolio that makes you stop and look in detail.

Yours is one such portfolio and contains some great work. I will be visiting again soon.

Keep up the good work.

You have talent !

Jon

Bravissimo! Eccellenti composizioni, originalita, colore, tecnica....grande! Complimenti!!!!

Ciao.

Hi David. Stunning portfolio, very impressive!

inspiring, well prepared and executed, excellent...

I love the range of work in your portfolio. It is simply stunning and is a pleasure to view. Very well done and keep up the excellent work!

A beautiful body of excellent work. Clive

I started commenting on individual works but realised I would be here all night. You should have an average rating of about 6-7. There are some great photos in your portfolio, a pleasure looking through them. Thanks!

your (sea)landscapes are just fantastic... you are a nature loving person,and you are incorporating that with your great knowledge of photography.... bravo greetings from croatia!

David,

Thanks for your so coloured work. All is perfect, but I prefer the sea folder. Congrats, Pascal.

about such a beautiful portfolio. You have done a wonderful job of capturing a wide variety of subjects. You have also a very good job of capturing your subjects in the best light possible. I particularly admire your seascapes.

David, you have one of the better sites in PN I have seen for a while. Congrats.

David--I'm certainly glad that you have joined and become an active part of photo.net because your work and advice has already been a real asset to my own photography. I've learned from just looking through your wonderful portfolio and your advice has been spectacular. You left a comment on my profile and probably don't think you gave me deep, profound advice but the truth is you did. What you did was helped me pinpoint something that I have noticed has been different between my shots and the great shots of people like yourself but could never put my finger on. The thing that I noticed in studying pictures but couldn't put my finger on is the use of a wide angle lens. You are right and I never thought about it that way but it does put the foreground "in your face" so to speak and thus captures your eye. The truth is that I do not currently have a wide angle lens but have done my research and will be buying one very soon. I was told that just having this lens would take my photography to the next level but I thought that was just because I'd be able to include more in my shots. While that may be true, I think it will also benefit me in the way you describe, by allowing me to place foreground subjects that make a strong statement and capture the eye of the viewer. I've noticed this about other pictures but had not put my finger firmly on the fact that the lens could be making the difference. So, to sum up all this--THANK YOU! for helping me to pinpoint an area for improvement and helping me to put my finger on something I noticed, but had not properly analyzed. Back to you, your portfolio is absolutely spectacular! I will certainly leave my comments on some shots--I think I'm probably better at reviewing shots than I am shooting them so hopefully I can say something on at least one shot that will help you. To be honest though, much of your work does not allow a terrible amount of room for improvement! Keep up the good work and thanks again! I'll be back to comment, suggest, critique, and study your work and hope that you'll do the same for mine in the future!

You have some truly amazing photos in your portfolio. I love your seascape images, both color and B&W.

Beautiful pictures you have! Thanks for sharing your work! Greetings from Mexico.

Great sea/landscapes! Amazing compositions and good use of wide lens. One of the best portfolios I saw ! Congrats! MᲩo

You truly are a virtuoso of light. Excellent work and in so many different areas. I love your architecture shots (especially the Valencia series) but actually like all everything else as well. What a delight. Thanks for sharing all of this!

Okay, so one of your images invited me to look at your portfolio..... great... now I'm depressed... I'm going to throw away my equipment and take up a new hobby.... :)

What a wonderful body of work! A fabulous sense of color, composition and light. A very inspirational portfolio for sure. Thanks for inviting me in..

Strong portfolio - keep it up

Excellent portfolio! Very high quality work. A true inspiration to all of us.

I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at your portfolio - some tremendous stuff in there and plenty to aspire to.

Here's hoping for lots of interesting light as winter progresses into spring.

Pete

Oh if only Peter! I have had 3 days of sunshine since December the 27th!

... am very impressed by your land/sea scapes especially. Congratulations and I'll be back to see more.

Wonderful images, particularly the seacoast shots, I'll be back to check for your latest. I'll be in SW England next month and can't wait to see and photo there for myself. I'll bring the sunshine from California (I hope!)

Beautiful nature photos.

David, your work is outstanding, the best of the best.

Excellent work.I especially like your landscape-photos a lot! Keep up the great work! Greetings,Jim

Fine Fine work...a pleasure to see

This is a very nice portfolio that you have created here. One of the Retirees where I work is from Devon, and he describes it as a very scenic area. Your photos, in particular the seascapes, are solid proof that he is right.

You have a very good eye, and I very much appreciate the fact that you routinely list those technical details...something that many of us on this site(myself included)should do more often.

Keep shooting and I hope we cross paths in South Devon someday. Cheers, JBP.

Stunning portfolio with high quality Very impressive. Thanks and congratulations Best Regards Roger

Beautifull portfolio full of diversified and strong images. I especially like your sea landscapes and Valencia

David. You give me the force to be better. Your work is near perfection... if have got such a little bit of your talent, i will be happy for a long time. Best regards. Thank you. Nicolas.

Nice work David. Thanks for sharing this excelent portfolio. Your UK photos are superb, and the Venice gallery is one of the best ones ive seen. Venice at dusk is definitely the time to photograph as you prove.

I,ll visit you everyweek David. I love your works. Congrats... iker

all i can say is... wow.

Your land scape images are priceless. Thanks for sharing, Laura Larson

Thanks Laura and also for the comments of the individual photos.

I just registered on this website today and have been browsing galleries. Your work is amazing. I am in awe of your ocean photos. I was also wondering, how do you sign your photos on-line? I am using a very basic photo editing program (Picasa) that doesn't seem to allow me to sign my pics. Let me know if you have a chance.

Again, great work!

David,

I came across your exceptional images at the National Theatre exhibition yesterday and, of course, in the book which I bought while I was there. I suspect you may not be able to make it to the Private View tomorrow, but if you do then I do hope I'll have the opportunity to meet you there.

Your Photo.net portfolio defies superlatives. You have a remarkable talent.

Best wishes.

Ian Flindt

Good grief, what an eye. Outstanding portfolio and my hats off to the photographer.

Ryan

Excellent and inspiring work, some wonderful photos, Greetings from Scotland Terry

What beautiful places - you have captured them all expertly!

Amazing porfolio

David, First thanks for the kind comment on my wave photo. Second and more importantly, wow! You have a beautiful portfolio of work here. I am always thrilled to find someone of your talent level posting on photo.net. Your seascapes are beautiful and I really love the fantastic architectural shots of Russia and Italy. Just beautiful stuff! You are being added to my most interesting list and I will be back often for inspiration. Aloha, Chuck

With compliments David , your images are fantastic. Best regards Gianpaolo

Great portfolio, please keep updating it, amateur photographers like me can learn quite a lot with it!!

Fabulous portfolio ... of course, I am drawn to the sea and land work, all of which is outstanding. it is always a pleasure to see images of yours appearing and the rest of us keep learning more particularly with the info you provide with the images.

Thanks Stuart, you can always personally ask me about any of them as I am happy to help. I cant make my mind up what sort of photographer I am so I photograph everything that fills me with wonder. I like the lands and sea ones too, but travel and adventure is equally as important to a healthy and balanced brain.

Hey David! It has been so long that I hope you remember who I am! I haven't been on PN for almost 6 months now--I've been going through the busiest time of my training and there simply hasn't been any time. Things should be slowing up a bit now and I hope to make a return. I logged in for the first time today and the first thing I did was found your page and looked at your new work. It is stunning as always and you continue to improve upon what I didn't think was improve-able! :) Thank you for sharing your talent and work with us. Congratulations on all the magazine photos, awards, honors, etc. you've been getting--you deserve it. I hope things are well for you and look forward to getting back in touch. Although I haven't had time to burn on photo.net I have taken my camera a few places and probably have 50 new pictures that are worthy of being posted. Hopefully I'll get around to posting them soon. There are a few that I can't wait to show you because you inspired them--I'll let you know when I get them up. Take care, keep up the great work, and be in touch!

Many thanks Tyler, really appreciated. You are a very busy guy fixing people back up again, hell you could sort out my left knee for me if you have a spare afternoon. Great to see you are still shooting and enjoying photography despite the heavy workload, your enthusiasm and efforts and your excitement are literally infectious to myself and others here on Photo.net so keep up the work when you have the time to post and comment. I always welcome your comments. I have still yet to try out the Tyler Method of lighthouse capture, Its nearing its first trial run very soon (I hope!)

Hi David, I have just spent the best part of an hour looking at your images. You have a very talented eye as your photographs show an excellent range of photography. You could publish a range of books with this amount of work and I hope your work takes you where you want to go. I'm impressed and inspired, wishing you all the best! John

Thanks, for 'looking in on" my cats stuff. I have taken some time to look thru your portfolio and I am in ... well amazed. I wish I knew what you did to get such pictures. I still have so much to learn that it seems the more I think about the shot the worse it is.(flat boring) and night shots, haven't gone there yet. thanks so much for the beautiful work....MB3

Very impressive work!

Your photos and your captions are wonderful. You should lead photo tours, I am really enjoying how you see the world. Stonedance

EXCELENT PHOTOS

You have a very inspiring portfolio, Photographers like you that I am striving to be. Take Care, Kevin H.

impressive photos!

I sure you've heard this often but I'll say it anyways, wonderful, creative, and thoughtful photos you have. Thanks for sharing with us.

Up there with the best on here David, particularly like your "Sea" work, very inspirational!

Rgds Paul

Outstanding work! You really inspire me. Love it!

John.

sorry but i have not words.........congratulations!!

DAVID , I THINK THIS IS THE BEST PORTFOLIO I SEE IT UNTIL KNOW , THERE NO WORD CAN EXPRESS IT , CONGRATULATION AND WISH U ALL BEST LUCK WITH CAM...

It's all been said. Beautiful, wonderful work. I will return to see it again.

Best regards, Tammy

Just want to say that your work is really very nice, reflects the beauty of nature, in an undistorted way. I especially appreciate when you provide technical details for your works, it helps others like me to learn from the pros like yourself.

Best, John

I will not ask if those beautiful landscapes are real neither if they really exist but I will take it for granted as you and your camera must be the witnesses to record and then to share with us.

So from nature-made to man-made, from nature landscapes to urban scenaries you have the chance to view and capture what others will se later-

Thanks for sharing with us.

Your photos are amazing and masterful!!!.../Ron

Amazingly impressive and varied body of work. Drama, subtlety and well defined image make for a great show of talent in your medium, kudos and highest regards. There were too many superior images to comment on any one. rek

David, I have never seen before the work of the best photographer the world has ever known, until now. The breadth of photography that your work encompasses is amazing, so many different styles, so colorful, and sharp and beyond anything I have ever seen.

-Peter Christoph

David.....you have too many photos to comment on...just a wonderful and happy gallery you have...one photo i could not resist !!!!

all my best.. ~trish~

realy one of the best portfolio

I believe this is my favorite portfolio on all of photo.net & I've been browsing around here for two years give or take. All pics right up my alley. Truly inspiring!! Kudos!

-Mike

Wow, wow, wow, wow. David. You have a fantastic portfolio (I don't think my words do any justice). Whish I could spend one day with you on a field trip. Very inspiring.

Every one of your photos drew my eyes into the picture. Thats how it should be. Congratulations and hope you achieve more than desired.

Cheers, Michael

I started out viewing your landscape folder, knowing you'd have wonderful images to study. But I couldn't help myself, and I've sat here a good, long while going through the whole portfolio. I see your amazing talent everywhere, and I enjoy your work immensely. You produce bold, detailed images with lots of drama and interest. Amazing.

Stunning work David. Thank you so much for sharing. Truly inspiring. Given the opportunity to view work as wonderful as this gives me motivation to learn more and more and continue to improve. Thanks, Dave.
