Paris, September 2010

Some photos from Paris, September 2010. Just a random selection. I will post some with colour soon too.

A few black and white shots from Lisbon, Portugal.

Just a few shots I took while I was in Lisboa, last June.

Internet explorer is crap.

Just found out that my blog looks horrible in Microsoft's Internet Explorer. The text is not in the right place in some posts.
It looks fine in Firefox and Opera. I haven't checked other browsers yet but I recommend viewing this blog in Firefox or Opera.
More photos coming soon. At the moment I'm in Portugal and I've already taken some beautiful shots in Lisboa.
Thanks to all those people from all over the world who have stopped by to look at my blog. I've had vistors from 94 countries so far. I'm curious to see if and when I will reach 100 countries. :)

The Great Limerick Run 2010

 

These are some of the photos that I took for ILOVELIMERICK.COM of the great Limerick run which took place on Sunday the 2nd of May 2010. It was the first full marathon in 25 years. There was also a half marathon and a 10km run. From top to bottom: The first shot is taken at the start of the full marathon. The second  shot shows the winner of the full marathon. The third and fourth are shots of the start from the 10km, taken from a crane. The fifth shots shows runners keeping warm. The last two shots are crowd shots taken at the finish.

Daithi Rua

I was invited to a CD presentation of Daithy Rua's new CD: "Black Fox" in O' Ceallaigh's pub in the city of Groningen. Daithi is a musician and songwriter originally from Offaly but now living in Belgium. He is a nice guy with a great voice. His CD is absolutely lovely. You can find more information on Daithi Rua here

trip to Groningen

I'm just back from a trip to Groningen in the Netherlands.  I was there to visit friends and family. It's also the city I was born in.
