Fragment

December 1, 2010 Canon 5D, Cork, Event, People

I’m sure all the Cork people will spot what/where this is, despite the lack of detail

Happy Place

Julie in her happy place, surrounded by ‘stuff’ to take photos of. Don’t ask me to explain it.

Worlds End Fence

The barbed wire fence at the end of the world. Sheeps Head in West Cork.

Overcooked Hills

Off to that castle again tomorrow so won’t be posting over the weekend. Looking out on a contrast ++ sea from the top of Goats Path in West Cork. Just before winding down the other side of the hill into Kilcrohane and onto the headland.

Gardens of Napoli

Almost, but not quite… Photowalkers doing their thing during the June get together in west Cork. This particular stop was Garinish Island, one stop after Gougane Barra but one before the impromptu ‘it’s too early to go drinking yet’ trip to Sheeps Head. One of the best photowalks yet, if only because this time I know the area I was traipsing around. Half way there now, only 6 photowalks to go!

Home from the Sea

Galway, by the water.

Make Tracks

June 8, 2010 Event, Macro, Panasonic LX-3

A very well loved tractor waiting to be put back into use near the pier at Doolin. Burren photowalk of course!

The Perfumery Gardens

June 6, 2010 Event, Macro, Panasonic LX-3

Took off to the Burren Perfumery on Sunday afternoon for some cake and a quick stroll around their (fairly compact) gardens. If you asked me to find the place again, I may struggle. Nice spot though.

Life Size

June 5, 2010 Canon 5D, Dublin, Event

From a little bit earlier in the year at the Botanic Gardens photowalk. Chubby little fecker.

Honey, I’m Home

May 24, 2010 Canon 5D, Dublin, Event

The Airfield Farm Photowalk. Not all landscapes or flowers. Oh no. Speaking of photowalks, get yourself over to www.photowalk.ie and take a look at the details of the West Cork photowalk in June. Then sign up for it.

Chasing Sunset

An after dinner trip out on the coast road to catch the sunset on the Burren photowalk. Lots more to come over the coming days (and even more when I develop the 2/3 rolls of film). Hope everyone that made the trip enjoyed the day.

The Other Stairs

You’ve already seen the ‘famous’ stairs of Charleville Castle. Here’s the other one. Taken during the visit last year.

Sheep of the Apocalypse

Distant relative of the swans, here stands the most menacing sheep you’ll ever lay eyes on. Not small, just far away. Menacing all the same though

The Gangs all Here

March 1, 2010 Black and White, Event, Film, People

Brogans, Trim. After the chilly photowalk came a nice hot dinner and a few cold pints. Neopan 1600 pushed to 3200. Came out quite well, apart from the crappy scanning.

Take a Load Off

February 28, 2010 Black and White, Event, Film

Another from Newtown Cemetery in Trim and the first of the film. Took alomst as long to remove the dust from a few shots as it did to scan three 36exp rolls. Should really clean the scanner.

Fixtures and Fittings

February 25, 2010 Black and White, Bronica ETRS, Event, Film

Making my way downstairs from yesterdays shot. There’s something about this area of the castle that both the Bronica and the panf really, really liked.

Top Floor

February 24, 2010 Black and White, Bronica ETRS, Event, Film

Finally developed and scanned a couple of rolls of PanF 50 from Charleville last year. Wouldn’t ya know it, grabbed the Bronica, stuck it on the tripod and headed straight for the stairs. Predictable or what?

City Hall

Inside Dublin’s City Hall during a photowalk an absolute age ago. Julie having a chat with Darren while everone else was off lying on the ground taking photos of the roof. Or something along those lines.

The Big Wheel

December 27, 2009 Canon 50, Canon 5D, Dublin, Event

Not exactly the most Christmassy of shots, but meh… We’re currently enjoying a trip to Cork. Eating too much, watching way too much crap TV and generally relaxing and having fun. The true spirit of the season. Best Christmas in a while.

This is Christmas

December 24, 2009 Canon 50, Canon 5D, Dublin, Event

The day before the night before the big man makes an appearance. Posting will likely be light over the Christmas period as I’ll be too busy eating, drinking and giving the appearance of being merry. Enjoy the festivities!
