Pana-Vision: Front of the bunch
At the recent Cork City Marathon, there came a point where there was a big mass of runners. These were just some of those bunched up. My full set of photos from the day are on Flickr.

The Almond Croissant Diaries: Across the lake
Oh dear, I have been very neglectful of my poor old blog. Lots of exciting photos lined up for the coming days though, although most of them will be wedding oriented.
The hotel where the wedding took place had a lovely, big garden which included a fishing lake with jetties hidden along the bank. We decided to use one of them for this shot which I think conveys a nice sense of privacy between the couple and just allows the viewer a little sneak peak into their special moment.
I love the colours in this shot - even though the sky is grey, I really like it.
Writing for Life: Grey Heron (Ardea cinera) on the wing
Shot from the car window in Union Hall. This fellow was feeding in the lagoon.
For such big birds (up to 1 metre in height with a wingspan pushing 2 metres) they’re incredibly nervous and skittish.
As I stopped and lowered the car window this one moved quickly away, and then took flight. This image is cropped from the full frame (handy having 12MP to play with).
The shot I’m really after is a perfect reflection of a hunting heron in glass-calm water… but it’s proving a tricky endeavour. In the meantime I quite like this shot.
Mike Patterson Photography: A tad outdated
I have been sooo bad of late with the blog and there is no excuse for it, it is me just being plain lazy.
So, I am back and will be posting a lot more images to get everyone's juices flowing again lol
The plan is also to convert this to another format that is a lot more pleasing to the eye so watch this space, it has been a long time coming....
Will Knott: No idea if there is tinfoil in the hat
Sometimes a bad photo can look better than intended.
The waitress moved at the moment the shutter clicked.
Aliens?

Hot off the Memory Card: Night Night
Norah sleeps soundly in her new room... which used to be my office.
inphotos.org: The Flowers of Fuchsia
Fuchsia flowers in my dad’s back garden.
I’ve tried to photograph fuchsia plants many times but the flowers are so delicate that any sort of breeze will set them shaking. I took this photo with the Canon 50mm resulting in a very fast shot and thankfully the lack of wind helped too!
(Posting this so “early” in the day because I’m debugging a supercache bug, must revert that “not logged in” message.)
