Stephen's green

One from St Stephen's green shopping centre yesterday, turned out exactly as I wanted it to, which is always a nice (if rare!) thing.

Times Square dodge and burn

Just playing around with an old picture. Converted it to black and white and used dodge and burn to darken up the sky

mini marathon

just a shot from the mini marathon. So many women! Click to view this one large, it's only then that you get a lot of the detail. I love the one man trying to direcet them all, reminds me of the old story about the pebble controlling the flow of a river.





As with every other year, there were a few interlopers as well, no doubts raising lots of money for charity in most cases!

Cover shot!!!

Got the cover shot for this issues Irish Runner for a features picture of my mum, who has run all the Women's Mini Marathons to date (25th on Monday). It's a nice family thing to have her on the cover with me taking the photo, and the editor Frank Greally was very kind to both of us in the editorial! Might get more work from in future given how enthused he was. Anyway, here is it, my first cover shot!

P.S. good luck to anyone reading this who is running on Monday!
