I'm starting to feel like a glutton for punishment for putting together these massive infrared stitches. The master PSD file of the above image weighs in at a staggering 9257x4198 pixels and takes up 513mb on my hard disk.

This is also my first stab at high-pass sharpening in...maybe two years? ]]>

This fortress is one of the most interesting structures in Ireland: The outer parts of the the outpost's fortifications date from around the mid-1500's, but the inner area - this room - date back to a time almost 900 years earlier.

I mean, it is surreal. The setting - tumbledown walls covered in moss positioned in an ancient Irish rain forest - is like nothing but a Hollywood film. I expected to see cheap fog effects. A Hobbit riding a unicorn. Then it kicks in that this is all real, You have to feel a little awe at standing inside of a 1,500 year old fortress. ]]>

I have to admit that sometimes I want variety - the opportunity to break matters up a little by just taking a simple snapshot and uploading it (almost (dust fixes)) unmolested.

So here you go: Ross Erilly by the light of day. ]]>

I am a shameless cat lover, and this duo (as we can all tell) is composed of two disgustingly adorable cats. Cats of the adorable kind. From the signs - literally; I saw the trail of paw prints - I gathered that they get fed at the local service station when they aren't in the car park being adorable. And begging food off tourists and travelers. ]]>

Spectacular Ross Errilly Friary, near the town of Headford, Co. Galway.

I couldn't think of a good way to crop this...so I didn't. Suggestions, please. ]]>
