    I notice no takers on any of the NI counties. Should I start a thread on Stormfront to see if there's anyone interested there?

    Don't worry - I can do Derry, Tyrone and Monaghan as well, if no one else takes them! (I drive through there every week!)

    Only as a last resort :cool:

    Not a bad idea, but I think it would take away from it a little bit. I want this camera to survive, I want it to take a long time, I want to be willng it to arrive back at my doorstep :)

    If it gets lost then we can just stage a sit in at an post or something to that affect!

    yep I guessed that might be part of the fun, will be all the more impressive if the one camera does the rounds

    Seeing as you've taken Antrim, and can cover Down; kgpixels can do Monaghan, and I can definitely take care of Donegal - I don't have a problem with venturing to the rest of Ulster :D

    I'd say get the ball rolling now with people who have a single county to cover. Leave those who are willing to cover a few counties until the end, and hopefully we can get a person-per-county by then.

    Theres no rush, and I want to make sure that we do have every county covered as I said before.
    Also, I might start this weekend with Charville. I think that might represent offaly pretty well :)

    I would be very surprised if there is a county that doesnt have a poster based in it.

    Maybe invite some regular poster from the unclaimed counties to participate!

    ive a few ideas for when im doing dublin, but are we all thinking of nice flattering shots that will capture the beauty of our respective counties or are people thinking of other ideas also?? dont want to be the only one that shoots something that may be a little gritty when everyone elses photos are real pretty...

    Let me put it to you this way. If you take a picture that some else is taking then its not unique.

    Make it your own, and take it your own (way)

    whatever you decide is what you should take

    you could then hand it over to one of us that'll be there for the week-end - that'd start the ball rolling!!

    I remember a story on Radio Ulster.

    Two sisters, one lived in Lifford, Co. Donegal, the other a mile away in Strabane, Co. Tyrone.

    They were getting pretty old and didnt see each other that much anymore.

    The sister in Strabane sent a Christmas card to the other in Lifford.

    The card went from Strabane to Derry, then on to the main sorting office at Mallusk,
    outside Belfast.

    From there, it ventured to the main sorting office in Dublin. From Dublin to journeyed to Letterkenny PO, and on to Lifford.

    Three days to arrive a mile away. :)

    Whoooo there horse. I didn't know it was only for people from the county taking pics of the county. I am indeed from Dublin but I do keep a barge in W. Meath and indeed a lot of my photo are taken there as I'm there a lot. Loads of stuff on my Pix.ie is from there and of people from there. Surely that counts. I'm a H2'Omeless river dweller.
    And in Athlone too by the way. Birthed there about 6 months ago. Pop down for a cuppa sometime, I'll show you the camera!!

    That and drink I think?

    Yeah my response was to a mis-understanding with Whyoulittle and then I think that photo759 must have quoted it somehow.
    I'm going back to me drinking now.
