on a wing and a dream.

I fell in love today.

You might not be able to see it but the one thing which struck me about the Boeing 787 Dreamliner which I was lucky enough to get to see today was how like the Shuttle’s its nose was. Really knocked me about a bit. Something in the expression of the windows.

It’s [...]

Kitesurferama

I discovered the other day that I had done the first photograph of this ilk way back in 2007 on a photograph that I liked a lot at the time but had forgotten about. This is from yesterday too.

Have had a productive morning doing stuff like packing a camera bag for a top secret trip [...]

Black and white sails.

It seems like I am under a lot of pressure lately; too many things on my mind I guess, and people not playing straight with me.

I had to go through the archives looking for some photographs today, and on my journey I found a few photographs from a trip to Kerry some time ago. I [...]

Mah wheelz

Although I don’t do a huge amount of it, I love to see some of the high gloss car photography which I largely grew up with (well anyone who gets to read Car, FastLane and Top Gear on a frequent basis at the age of 15 can’t really avoid it I suppose). Mostly I am [...]

Splashilicious

This went down quite well with the pixie community yesterday.

I’m tempted to take the advice I’m being given and put it on a large canvas. For anyone who is wondering, when the tide comes in on Garrettstown Beach, it reaches the seawall, and breaks against it. I like stuff like that so have a [...]

Kinsale

This one is for C. This is what I was at when you called this afternoon. Could have done with a graphics equaliser on my phone to try and figure out what you were saying by the way.

Kinsale. Pretty town in Cork. Lots of boats and stuff. I was there today.

As you can see. It’s [...]

New Year’s Day in Howth

So on New Year’s Day after failing to acquire a Nintendo Wii COS I WANTED ONE THERE AND THEN RIGHT, I took a trip out to Howth with a view of playing with some dramatic clouds (they had gone home for the night though, leaving a grey featureless thing of a sky), and some long [...]

it’s a snowy wonder of a day.

It feels like it’s warmer outside than in.

I took a wander around the estate with a 50mm lens and a camera this morning. When I got home I discovered that the computer had different ideas to me about how I name files which is why this is actually called Snow nn rather than IMG_nnnn. [...]

Red tulip

One of the older photographs.

I think this was from my sister’s garden, and I believe it was taken with the 50mm. I’ve forgotten though I suppose I could check the file data except it’s not on the flickr page (what was I thinking) and I am not sure where the file is stashed in terms [...]

Freezing cold, no seriously.

I apologise for the lack of updates (ish) lately. Been busy.

This was taken at a kite competition a few weeks ago. When I say that it was freezing cold if you came off the water, I’m not joking. Her hands were freezing cold. Hence the image. This sucked in colour; worked a lot better in [...]
