I am still getting quite a few hits to this old blog site so I thought I would put a link to the new
Facebook page I created specifically for
Mike Patterson Photography.
If you are a Facebook user then please become a fan and don't forget to pop in and say hello :-)))

Hi Everyone,
Yep, I still exist, honest!!! I keep apologising for the delay in posting but most of it is due to my focusing on what I need to do to get the business the way I want it for the future. Also, the blog is moving to a new home, so please make sure you update your RSS feed to the new site to ensure you get the latest and greatest from there instead. The new site is
Mike Patterson Blog.com.
One of the biggest perks of having a self hosted
site is the ability have much larger pictures from all the sessions I cover whether it be from portraits, engagement sessions, weddings to boudoir.
Thank you everyone who has read and commented on earlier posts and I look forward to seeing you at the new one.

I was recently made aware that I was one of 21 people across Ireland asked to attend the
Mondello Park Photowalk that is taking place on the 6th September this year.
I feel very fortunate and honoured to have been picked but had better start practising the various techniques required to get some nice shots.
It is a unique opportunity to get access to a lot of areas that are not normally made available to the general public and to do something I enjoy. The other unique twist to this is that this will be a day off for me from the usual weekend shenanigans and it means taking pictures for personal enjoyment which is something I have been lacking of late.

As I am out the country, I was fortunate to have some pictures taken of my print at the Exhibition I spoke
about earlier.
Thanks to Aafke Bakker & Nico Den Heeten for taking and sending across the pictures for me to post.

As I indicated in the post below, I have one image selected for the free exhibition being held in Galway this weekend.
However, I wanted to provide a couple, ok more than a couple then, of images I took at the event which I really like and would want to share them with you. The rest of the set which contains well over 100 images can be
found here - Enjoy!!
In the shot below you can just
make me out. I am under the letters o and n.
This is the view from one of the apartments facing the main stage.
Got to have the Green Dragon boat in amongst these shots somewhere lol
We were also very lucky with the weather during the event with some amazing sunny days and a few drops of rain just to remind everyone of the typical Irish weather system we have here.

Today I was fortunate to be asked if one of the images I took during the recent
Volvo Ocean Race stopover here in Galway could be used for an exhibition that is being held here in Galway. I obviously said yes as it was such a monumental event which I thoroughly enjoyed being part of.
In a nutshell, over 10,000 images
were uploaded and of those 100 were chosen to be represented in the exhibition.
The image in question is this one:-
The exhibition will take place this weekend in Galway (21-23 August) and is free to anyone who wants to see them.
Details can be
found here

The new blog is slowly taking shape and will still be a while before it comes online as I want to ensure it has been tweaked to my liking. I will in the meantime still continue to add bits and pieces here.

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....
