Future plans (announcement)

I know that a few people have probably been looking out for the photos I took during the Riverfest festival in Limerick. Don't worry, I will put them up.
The plan is to make a seperate Limerick blog where I will show all the photos relating to Limerick. It is in the pipeline. There I will show a compilation of a few years Riverfest. It'll mainly be people shots of the Riverfests. There will also be general photos taken in Limerick city and county. I will keep ye informed.

Munster Rugby (Heineken Cup).




It was a bit of work but I edited photos I took in O'Connell street, Limerick during the Munster Rugby Heineken Cup finals.
You can see the photos in the  slide show above. When you click on a photo it will bring you to the flickr page where this set lives. You can go also go to the flickr page directly by clicking the link below:

When you click on "all sizes" you can choose which size you want to download. I posted a decent size so you can even print them. If you use them on your blog or post them on, please link back to my flickr page or blog.
The atmosphere in O'Connell street, Limerick was great. The event was well organised with two big screens. Friendly Gardaí and stuarts made sure that everything went smoothly. I saw one girl pass out and she received aid within seconds. She was fine afterwards.
Even the weather was brilliant.
It was also a great photo opportunity even though the light conditions weren't ideal.
I hope you enjoy the photos and that those who weren't there get a taste of the atmosphere.

Concert: Siobhán O'Brien and band.


















Last Friday Kieran, a friend of ours, had invited us to a folk concert by his cousin Siobhán O'Brien in Dolan's Warehouse, Limerick City. Of course I brought the photo gear along and took some shots.
These shots were all taken with my 50mm 1.2 L lens at ISO 800 and ISO 1600. (some of ye might be interested in this kind of information)
You can find more information on Siobhán O'Brien here:
