Hi ~ my name is Gordon Arnold. I am originally from Croydon, 10 miles south of London, but have lived in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, in the north-east of England for over thirty years.BIOThis photo of me was taken by my sister Wendy, aka Gabrielsdream, in September 2005 at the Alnwick Garden in Northumberland.
I've been taking photos since I was about nine years old, I don't specialise, it's just whatever appeals to me at the time! Since going digital, I have discovered the possibilities this offers, and am learning all the time.
My interests apart from photography are music, theatre, art, architecture and museums, travelling and always combined with food, glorious food!
Because I suffer from a rare incurable bone marrow cancer, and have just started a fifth course of very punishing chemotherapy, involving periods of hospitalisation, I am not around on Renderosity much at the moment.
Thank you for viewing.
~Gordon~

Venice of the North! I didn't know it but it seems to be quite appropriate... Good scenery. It's always nice to see that some people can live in the modern world without their car! Do they know how lucky they are?

I love Bruges and look forward to seeing the canal scenes! This cobbled square is almost car free, but there are lots of horse drawn carriages, travelling at quite a pace, with passengers well wrapped up to ward off the cold weather! It's a great way to see the sights! I love the way you've got all the bicycles in the foreground!

Hello Gordon :) Your photo is reminding me of a famous painter in another time :)) Your shot looks like a painting and I love the colours and composition : wonderful!!

WOW! I love the architecture in this. The buildings are beautiful, and the splashes of pure color are so WONDERFUL! It seems so out of character for them to be there, and I guess that is why is it so beautiful. I love this.
