UK Passport Photos and ID Cards

NOT great examples of passport poses
I recently got asked to do some passport photos of my niece and nephew . I wasn't sure how to get the dimensions right but found this great Passport photo maker online : PORTRAIT BOOTH


With a little cropping correction you can get up to 8 passport photos for the price of a 6 x 9 photo ( 38p at today's price )


 UK Government guidelines for passport photos available on this following link : UK Gov guidelines on passport photos


I don't want to sound patronising ( That means talking to people in a condensing manner ;) ) , but unless you really know what you are doing there are many photo booths and pro photography studios that will take these pictures at a relatively low cost . Going to these places may take the stress out of being delayed or denied passports / Visa's because the quality of the image or dimensions are incorrect . It may however be a good alternative for NUS / NUJ / NUF cards that may not need such strict adherence to guidelines 


Have a go and see for yourself

Bangor City vs HJK Helsinki UEFA Cup Round 1

What a scrum .....

Away fans celebrate goal 



Bangor playing HJK Helsinki . Bangor will now go through to the round 2 with a 3 goal deficit


Bangor did have several refereeing decisions go their way but with many ( and legitimate ) calls for pushing / shoving / rugby tackling in the area falling on deaf ears . Good luck in the 2nd round
