I was asked by Stevie at work to go and photograph their weekly footie game on Wednesday. It was a fascinating learning experience for me; I can really appreciate the skill and dedication sports photographers need to get their amazing shots. Out of 1326 total photos, I had 103 good photos, and out of those I had 14 worthy of actually putting up on Flickr. I’ve also realised I’m starting to hit against the limits of my gear, so I’ve decided to sell most of my current kit and order a 30D from Hong Kong.
And also that I really abuse vignetting and that I should stop.

Weather WTF?
Last Sunday we had sub-zero temperatures, snow and flash flooding. This Sunday we had warm, hazy sunshine and people going around in shirtsleeves. Now it’s dreary, cloudy and cold. Good old psychotic Ireland, eh. Still, yesterday was a magnificent a dawn, such as I haven’t seen in years

Between you and I…
Weird weather aside, I’m selling everything I own that I can’t carry. You can currently get a Nintendo Gamecube, 43 PC games, or two lenses. I’m open to offers on it all…buy them.
Is she not resplendent?

Whaaaat?
Caira is a darling
She was on the phone with mum tonight and I could hear her from the next room over.
She has a bright future as a drill sergeant. :]
Yrch
I feel much better, a day of sleep followed by two full meals worked wonders. Eh, Mike and I were originally supposed to go down to the Burren for lack of anything else to do (congrats on the press job BTW), but it was fucking snowing at one o’clock. Snow. In March. -_-
Mum absolutely adored the photo of dad. Really and absolutely. My work here is done.
I took some photos during dinner to make up for it all, but I’m not sure I’ll live out the night after posting them…

Oh Mark…
