Allihies Beach

Allihies Beach

I look outside now and see the hazy and rain that has descended on and wonder if I was really at and saw the fluffy cumulus stretching off into the distance. It seems like a another lifetime.

Today my wife, Jacinta, and I celebrated our second wedding anniversary. It’s a joyful day because we are a happy family with our mad little son but it’s also the first anniversary of Jacinta’s sister’s untimely passing from this world. We went for dinner this afternoon with her family and it was a cheerful gathering, but of course in quiet moments, one’s thoughts stray to Gerry who wasn’t there.

Going Overboard

Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008 by Donncha

Bertie’s going overboard today, hopefully. As I write this is speaking and it sounds like a resignation speech. I haven’t heard an apology for lying under oath and deceiving the public yet however.

Unfortunately we’re all going to forget this by the next election. Hopefully the other parties will make hay while the shines.

Posting this today as Miriam’s photo of the same sign reminded me I had shot this at in Co. .
It’s appropriate too.

Edit - he’s out. will resign on May 6th 2008.

Spectators on the beach

Sunday, February 10th, 2008 by Donncha

The hang gliding attracted a bit of a on Inch in 2006. Well, it was late September and there wasn’t that many on the in the first place, so 2 isn’t so bad, eh?

Hunger got the best of us and we watched as a powered flew high up in the air. I don’t think any of the gliders made it up that day because the winds weren’t right.

The sandy beach at Couminole

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008 by Donncha

I photographed the at on the Peninsula back in 2006 when there was a there. There was no to be seen during repeated visits there in September 2007.

I had actually quite forgotten I had taken this so it was nice to see the lovely sandy !

Trivia - a well known member of Mallow Camera Club who shall remain nameless was caught by the tide and had to remain sitting on the for several hours in wet, foggy and rough conditions until the tide went out again.

The Happy Shih Tzu

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008 by Donncha

Our Shih Tzu, , received a long overdue grooming today. Here he is on the 10th of December 2007. Can you imagine how much more hair grew since then?

Yes, this photo is very similar to this beach photo. They were taken moments apart. I’m running low on prepared images, it’s after 9pm and I have lots of other things to do tonight before I go to bed. *yawn*

I have now shut down Postfix, and redirecting email to through my domain registrar, Joker.com who hopefully can handle the load better.

Shih Tzu on a sunset beach

Friday, January 25th, 2008 by Donncha

Our Shih Tzu on again. We forgot to bring a ball with us but went running after anything I threw.

He never did catch the object. I guess there’s nothing quite like a tennis ball eh?

I love the evening on him in this picture!

Holiday Caravan

Monday, January 7th, 2008 by Donncha

A holiday near a on the Peninsula.

This has been in the same spot for at least the last 2 years, and probably longer. I wanted to shoot it for quite a while but it wasn’t until I converted this shot to b/w that I was happy with it.

The sun sets on 2007

Monday, December 31st, 2007 by Donncha

The final day of the year 2007. It’s cloudy and misty and rain is in the air. Very mild for this time of year actually.

2007 was a mixed bag for many . It was a year of extremes - joy and sadness in equal measures, but life changing for myself and my wife as our son Adam was born into the world this year.

This was shot at a few weeks ago. Dedicated to the memory of Gerry who visited that with us before she passed away.
