Iced Coffee: go green

§ August 9th, 2008

I’ve decided to accept that I am in fact prejudiced against the colour green. I almost reject it point blank. Okay so there is the occasional bit of grass, but grass is good. Grass is nice.
Its all blue blue blue. The blue madness must end. Yes the sky is wonderful, and the sea is oh so deep but there will be less of it.
More green I say!

Scenes of Ireland (and more): Inside the White Pagoda

§ August 9th, 2008

I love the lace effect and the freshly renovated white against a blue sky. remember blue skies? that's what used to appear in summer or so I believe, it's been so long....Anyway another bright shot in the hope of creating some sympathetic magic and affecting the weather for the weekend :)

inphotos.org: The rolling hills of the Irish countryside

§ August 9th, 2008

People come from far and wide to see the beautiful Irish countryside and it’s no wonder. There’s such a wide range of different scenery that you could spend many a day discovering new beauty spots.

This was shot near Dunmanway in West Cork. If you look very carefully you can see the wind power generators on the horizon but what attracted me to the scene was the gently rolling hills and changing light. Really beautiful part of the country.
