The star for the top of the Victoria Square Christmas Tree.
Found in the basement.
Dundalk and the wonders therein are the topic of manys a blog these days.
So imagine my delight when I saw this. So strange, and so bloggable.
How could you not go to Premiere Menswear after seeing this?
I think it was part of a “Guess who’s 50?” prank.
Just a few shots from the fun Dublin leg of Scott Kelby’s Second Annual Worldwide Photo Walk. You can see all the pics the group took on Pix.ie and on Flickr.
I met some familiar faces – McAWilliams (who very kindly organised the whole thing, much to the detriment of his own snapping), Redmum, Steven, Julie – and some not so familiar ones, so I have a few new Twitter peeps and some great new photoblogs to follow. It’s so nice to go wandering with people who don’t mind if you stop every two minutes to take a picture! You can see the rest of the pics I took by clicking ‘ere. I’m still trying to figure out which two to submit to the competition – the prizes are pretty sweet, although the odds of winning are depressing low, given that over 37,000 photographers took part worldwide.
(P.S. Thanks a mill to Steven who let me borrow his 50mm 1.8 while my 50mm 1.4 rested up in the sickie shop. I have been seriously hooked on that lens and missing it big time. However, I am proud to report that the above shots were taken with a variety of lenses (the first two are 50mm 1.8, the third one was taken with the kit lens, 18-55mm 3-5.6, the fourth with the holga lens on my 400D body, then 50mm 1.8 again times two, then finally the shot of the couple was with the Sigma 70-300 4-5.6. Maybe I’m finally getting out of the fiddy rut….)
Well after all the planning across the world, Scott Kelbys 2nd worldwide photowalk got underway yesterday and I had the honour of leading a fantastic group of 46 people for the Dublin event. Rather then telling you all about it, everyone has been putting their images up on Pix.ie, many thanks to Marcus for allowing us to use the site for the event.
Looking though those photos will give you much more of an idea of what the day was like and can be found at this very handy webpage.
Thanks again to everyone for coming along and making the Dublin walk such a success.
