About
Graham Ballett-Young
I was born in February 1986 and have lived in Farnham, Surrey all my life. Residing where I do, I consider myself to be incredibly lucky. Living about 30 miles from London, I'm close to the capital and other large towns, but I also live far enough away from London to have a lot of countryside on my doorstep. My main passions are cars and shooting. I've loved cars (or anything with an engine, for that matter) since I can remember and while I took up shooting aged 16, I found it to be something at which I was naturally good. My myriad of hobbies include driving, shooting, photography, music, horse riding, basketball, mountain biking and webdesign - to list a few. About GBYphotography.com GBYphotography.com was somewhere I wanted to put my favourite pieces of work, alongside my more mainstream gallery at DeviantArt and more recently, Flickr. After doing some webdesign for friends, I decided to start GBYdesign.co.uk and this was the first site on which I was able to practice the things I was being tutored in CSS and HTML. The site is in its most comprehensive state at the moment and until I expand into other areas of photography, it'll stay the same...unless I decide to have a major revamp (again!) You can purchase selected prints from this site in many print sizes, from 7"x5" up to A3. For more info and to buy prints, please visit my online print shop or my ImageKind Shop for more framing and print options. I've selected the wallpapers myself or by request of other people. If you would like a specific picture made available as a wallpaper, drop me a line and I'll add it to the page. About The Photography I've always been fond of nature and wildlife but never really thought of taking pictures of things myself; my parents always did this whenever we were on holiday. I'd been taking random happy snaps of outings in my Land Rover for a while and was starting to get into the habit of snapping everything I thought I'd especially like to remember. In 2004 I decided to get myself a point-and-shoot digital camera - after becoming tired of spending lots of money in Boots getting photos developed - so I could have a record of things and not have hundreds of 7x5s filling up a drawer somewhere. Now armed with a DSLR, I love nothing more to be out taking pictures of the things I love, whether that be nature, animals, cars or any of my many other hobbies. I would like to expand my genres with Equestrian photography and Portraiture before too long, so I'm able to be an all-round photographer. Whatever I decide, I'll still be taking pictures of something. About The Kit My current kit consists of...
