Isolation.

Yesterday was the third annual Scott Kelby World Photowalk. I’d forgotten it was coming up. Anyway, this time, John Williams took us west rather than east. I tend to prefer east – probably because it takes me towards my more natural stomping ground of the sea. We wound up in tourism heaven, Temple Bar and [...]

O’Connell Street, Dublin

This was taken on a flickr photography trip in Dublin two or three years ago. It’s one of those photographs which seems to have caught people’s attention. I know for example that there are three copies of it gone to Poland and it has caused discussion the one or two times it hit People’s Photography. [...]

Old things with a new eye

I took this on my very first photowalk with “other” photographers about 3 years ago, in Kerry. It’s taken from Brandon Head as far as I remember.

I started going through old photographs last night to see what had changed in the way I look at photographs and noticed that the way I look at photographs, [...]

Cork photowalk

Donncha of Inphotos.org is organising another photowalk down in Cork on September 26th. By all accounts the last one, whiche I had to miss, was worth not missing so if you’re free that weekend and they have some really good deals for travelling photographers (hint hint).

You need to leave a response on Donncha’s blog if [...]

Samuel Beckett Bridge, Dublin

This is also from the Scott Kelby World Photowalk day which John McAwilliams organised.

The bridge is still under construction; so it’s jailed behind bars for the moment. I really can’t remember how I took the photograph, but the processing involved some messing with the levels of black in the image, rejigging of the white balance, [...]

Friends in high places…

I am not sure which friend in a high place pulled off this one for me but I’m guessing that either Ryan or John had a helping hand.

On September 6, I will be running off to Mondello to take photographs of JapFest as part of a photo walk organised by Mondello Park. I’m interested in [...]

Nails and Posters

The Scott Kelby annual Worldwide Photowalk was a couple of weeks ago.

I can’t quite figure out what I think of this concept to be honest; it’s possible that my view is slightly coloured by being a little underwhelmed by the last Kelby book which I read (about photography rather than Photoshop); that being said, some [...]

Docker I and Docker II

This is from Kyle Tunney’s Evening photowalk a few weeks ago.

In fact, I’d done a photo walk there myself a few days earlier, and had shot it slightly differently on that occasion.

This is actually a piece of public art which I was not aware of until that first photowalk. I do not do a lot [...]
