An obvious plant in the Botanic Gardens.

It\’d been so long since I last used the macro lens, I forgot what it was capable of when focusing manually.
From the second Botanic Gardens photowalk that took place earlier today. Weather was quite a bit milder than the previous walk. The macro lens that I haven\’t used in what seems to be about 2 years came out to play again.
Don\’t know what else to call it. Maybe \’Hairy Red Snakes\’ or something similar. An odd plant at Airfield Farm in Dundrum.
Colourful flowers; Psh, there\’s plenty of time for that later on. First time out with the macro lens in quite a while. Headed down to Airfield in Dundrum. Quite a nice spot. Lovely cake 
Recently, it seems like every time I come home theres a new skirt or handbag, a modification to an existing item of clothing or grand plans drawn up to create something new. It must be great to be creative.
Presumably… One of the many delightful now almost naturally occuring sights on Fountainstown beach. My first outing with the macro lens in quite a bit of time.
Hand selected rocks on Newcastle beach. Only the ones with the best stripes (and spots) will do. Incidentally, some of these now live in my apartment along with a curiously burgerish shaped rock. It was too good to leave behind. Oh how I\’ve missed strolling on the beach!
This has been the wallpaper on my mac for the last God knows how long. Possibly counterproductive, it often makes me thirsty on bootup. I think I have almost a full bottle floating around somewhere.. If not Santa will have to bring me one.
Back! Spent much of the last week working in London sans photos and therefore the photoblog was sans update. However, I\’m back now! This is another of the botanic gardens macros, and one I\’m quite happy with. Back to Cork tomorrow, first time being so far south in over a week. That\’s a bit mad…
