A selection of photos from what was not a particularly productive year. Still I suppose I have to be thankful to have made it to 2009 after all that 2008 brought.

Happy Christmas to you all and here’s to a peaceful 2010. Thanks for your support, it has given me great strength.

Mallow Camera Club: National Success for Mallow Camera Club

§ May 6th, 2009

At the I.P.F. Finals held in the University of Limerick last weekend over 26 clubs competed  for the top award.  Mallow Camera Club were winners of the colour print panel section and 6th in the black and white section.  Overall the club came 2nd.   This is a new record for the club. Well done to all photographers whose work contributed to both panels.  This year three judges travelled from Scotland, Italy and…Croatia respectively.  Congratulations to Dundalk Camera Club who won the overall event.
Individually, Morgan O Neill took both silver and bronze medals in the colour print section. This follows Morgan’s success at the last sitting of distinction judging when Morgan was awarded an Associateship from the R.P.S.    Another winner on the day was Sean Murphy who was awarded a highly commended certificate.
Adding to the success of the club,  two members, Paddy Feen and Sean Colman also put forward individual panels for licenteship judging and were both successful so congratulations to both.

All in all a great weekend for Mallow Camera Club.

Another shot of the Guinness Storehouse. Far more exciting than the facade of the inside is the outside where the real beer is made.
