Pentax
Camera straps say so much about you. Mine says "Canon". What does your strap say? Nikon? Sony? My dad used to shoot with a Pentax SLR for years so I have fond memories of the brand. I'm curious about their DSLRs. Anyone have one?
Flower Burst
Some times you just have to post a cliche like a pretty flower, especially in the dead of winter. I'm giving away a free print to two visitors to my blog. Leave a comment on my Carol Singers post to be in with a chance to win!
Carol Singers
Carol singers on Patrick's Street yesterday. It's nice to see carollers again. It seems they haven't been out much in previous years but this year I spotted 3 groups dotted around the city streets singing their hearts out.

Bright Idea
You don't need to be smart to have a bright idea, just a Posca or paint and a blank wall.
A Cabin in the Rockies
A small wooden cabin or hut sits in a car park near the houses Automattic stayed in at Breckenridge in Colorado. The original shot can be seen in my Flickr stream or in the Automattic group there. This version has been extensively dodged and burned to bring out the contrast between light and dark. Late...
A boat in Cape Clear
A solitary boat in the North Harbour, Cape Clear Island. PS. Check out Jolt++, a new photoblog created by fellow Automatticer Michael Pick. Great photos, and I really like the Tumble theme. I wonder how I'd squeeze my adverts into such a theme? PPS. My brother Donal was featured on the envelope of the first...
