Featured Photographers on Flickr

I'm sure most people are familiar with Flickr especially if you have an interest in photography. Also It's a great way of safely storing your photos online. I've been a member of Flickr for about 7 years. it's the worlds largest photo community.
There are some tremendously talented photographers who publish their work on Flickr and they are mainly keen amatuers.
Some may know I've had interest in photography for well over 35 years and I love to see great photography, whatever the photographers' field of speciality.
In this thread I'll post some links to photographers work that I find remarkable.
I'll try and vary it a bit and link different fields.
First up is Claude B. Tenot and his studio shots. Claude is a Swiss amatuer photorapher who I'm sure anyone would hire for thier family portraits! Feel free to look through his fine photostream.

This next photographer is probably more notable for his Pike angling achievements and is only one of a handful of British Pike anglers to have caught a specimen over 40lb.
We both share the same interests now as Alan Mcfadyen, from South West Scotland, has taken up photography in the last few years...with remarkable success!
His photographs are mainly of native British birds and has put in a lot of hard work and patience to put together a fine photostream. Oh, if I'm not mistaken he won the prestigious 'photo of the year' 2011 from 'Birdguides.com'

I loved the wildlife pictures. The red squirrel in the snow scene is amazing, it's coat really stands out.
