			<content:encoded><![CDATA[I was recently made aware that I was one of 21 people across Ireland asked to attend the <a href="http://www.mondello.ie/corporate-events/?id=336">Mondello Park Photowalk</a> that is taking place on the 6th September this year.<br /><br />I feel very fortunate and honoured to have been picked but had better start practising the various techniques required to get some nice shots.<br /><br />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.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6553634001237471520-5244540069246969623?l=mikepattersonphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>]]></content:encoded>
