As some of you may know I’m always buzzing around the boards.ie photography forum. Every so often I’ll pop up an image for C&C (comments and critique) or share my feelings on somebody elses photos. If you are new to photography and are wondering how you could have taken a photo better of just want some general advise, you won’t get a better bunch of people to help you out. The standard on the forum is quite high and I often find myself saving some photos into my Inspiration folder.
Well this year it was suggested that we put a book together and that anybody interested could have their choosen photo included. Also every book sold would donate €5 to the charity Santa Strike Force. So it was a no brainer to pop one of my images in there.
There is a preview of the book online here. If you like what you see, order the book now on blurb.
Remember, for every book sold a donation is made to the Santa Strike Force!
A big thanks goes out to Vlastik for all the organising he did, whyulittle for designing the book and of course to everbody else on boards who contributed to such a worthy cause!

Brian Hopper and Ciaran DeBhal from Dundalk Photographic Society paid a very successful visit to Mallow Camera Club on Friday night last, 07 November. Brian and Ciaran made the long journey from Dundalk to present their superb images to keen photographers from Mallow and surrounding clubs. The audience were regaled with stories of their photographic exploits. Both photographers have travelled extensively and they shoot a wide rang of subject matter.
There was good banter between the speakers and the audience, and the quality of the images and the commitment of both photographes to their art came through on the night. A good night was had by all.

I went to my Grandparents house this afternoon and saw a few of my young cousins.
As he was leaving, Ethan got very upset that he couldn’t take this snail home with him.
