Eating or Politics?

Sometimes it’s the little things in life that concern us more than the big picture.

I’m sure I heard about Sean Garland on the news but for the life of me, I can’t remember when. There’s a lot more information on him on seangarland.org and Wikipedia.

Waves Crashing

It’s very difficult to stop waves. You’ll need a fast shutter speed. If you don’t have a fast lens then stopping down a notch or third, or increasing the ISO will help too.
This image was originally quite bland with washed out waves and dark rocks but a little dodging and burning with a soft layer worked wonders!

This was taken in Dunworley, Co. Cork yesterday.

Bird on Ground

What kind of bird is this? Around a dozen congregate around our bird feeders, dive to the ground and bath in the bowl of water below, and even fight over how gets to have a bath or a feed sometimes!

Chatting and Shopping

This is one of the US photos I forgot to post!
