Right, parting shot before I head out.

Taken at the Royal canal at dusk tonight, a pair of beautiful Swans, along the whole length of canal were numerous Ducks too.
Lens Canon 100mm Macro.

^ Really like that last one Ani - would have been perfect if the reflection wasn't cropped off just that tiny bit!

thebaz · 16-05-2008 11:37pm

Scanned in using a Hp flatbed. need to read up to see if i can get a better quality from it.

YogiBear · 17-05-2008 7:55am

Morning! An hour ago it looked like it could rain but the blue is gradually breaking through the cloud.. finger's crossed it clears up for the day!! Typical, looking at the sunshine from the office all week and clouds for Saturday! :mad: Oh if I could talk to that God fella! :mad:
Here's a shot from last week, woke up early this morning so doing some processing. I really want to get a reflector today, I hope some nice camera shop in town has them in stock!

Have a lubly day boardsers!

Jesus, you've been up early.

Try Gunns - Get their 5 in 1 one... I think it's Portaflash - 40-something quid

I by per chance was delivering Chinese food the other night and as I drove down Sean McDermott street I noticed the lazy ****er from Liberty house hadn't taken down their Santa!!!!!

Small world eh....

Yeah woke up at some ridiculous hour! Only saw this now, just home. Got one in Berminghams in the end. It's a portaflash 5 in 1 but it's quite a big one, 59€.
Looking forward to trying it out. Thanks for the suggestion on Gunns though!!

Haven't processed any of today's photos so here's one from Stephen's Green last week, often mistaken for Hyde Park in London!

Finglas Village 3am-ish. Got a bit hairy when the drunks appeared...

Roen · 18-05-2008 6:35pm

I could well imagine it did Mehfesto2! Monopds are great things to have in these situations!

sheesh · 18-05-2008 6:40pm

Gerk thats lovely! very partial to sunsets myself. Where is it.

Peace · 18-05-2008 6:53pm

The girlfriend bought this odd looking thing against my wishes in B&Q. Turned out to be a nice feature in the garden.

Yeah, it was a bit of a task getting into the car with the tripod sill 'standing' to avoid any hassle. Would have loved to take more though. The village is pretty interesting at night!

Tonnes of stuff like that all over the city these days Hugh, and out new man in charge has stated his desire to see it all done away with.

Get photographing it as it may not be around much longer.

Well, i'm sure they will find it tough to keep it gone for good.

Wouldn't be surprised to see some of the Fine Gael lads out in their shirtsleeves and scrubbing brushes considering this is right outside their HQ on Upper Mount Street and this would be bad press for them, if it were to be seen by the public at large. Poor ol' Biffo - when he became Taoiseach I thought the caricaturists would have a field day - I didn't think the graffiti artists would be out so soon.

Dragan · 19-05-2008 5:01pm

*grins* There are just too many of them.

He made an enemy he may just regret at some point.

Really like that, Arciphel!

I don't think I'd sit on it, tho'.

Masada · 19-05-2008 8:50pm

that could be a really nice panoramic "kjt" but i think its too processed looking., do you have an original one?

Alanstrainor · 19-05-2008 8:55pm

I think it's way too dark, and i agree with vtec, it seems over processed. I does have potential though.

kjt · 19-05-2008 9:02pm

Thanks lads, I only took 2/3mins in Photoshop with it as theirs dirt marks all over the images as you can probably see. The poor lens is only a day old and she got covered

. I'll be around there again tomorrow so I'm going to take a cleaner shot then:).

Here's the original:
