I'm Alan Ford (as if that wasn't obvious from my username), currently living in Southampton, UK.

I'm not a cockney actor, and I'm definitely not a comic book.

The Photographer's Barnstar

I hereby award this Photographer's Barnstar to Alan Ford for his many pictoral contributions Benjaminstewart05 14:58, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I've scattered a fair few of my photographs around various articles in Wikipedia. I release all my photographs into the Public Domain. All are thumbnailed below.

All these photographs have been taken by Canon Digital Ixus cameras. Up until May 2006 this was an Ixus v3, and later photos were taken with an Ixus 800 IS.
