Munster v Leinster?

Kintarō Hattori

Nothing. I'm not feeling motivated recently due to lots of uncertainty. It's pretty annoying. Sorry to bring down the tone of the thread.

I like the sound of that homer. Must get the programme toady and pick out a few spots.
A jump in the dark could make for great shots.

bullpost

Bought a remote control for the camera yesterday so hoping to get some use from it over the weekend.
Also hoping to get a sunrise in but its sooooo cold at the moment I'll probably chicken out

The Spanish Steps are extremely disappointing froma photographic point of view (unless you are into millions of teenagers sitting around). Bring a wide angle for the trevi fountain, the space is limited. spend lots of time in the vatican, although I would imagine it will be busy this weekend particularly. The Pantheon is a truly amazing building, might be busy too though as it's a functioning church

Some great advice there. I'm hoping to get my shots taken early in the morning so I don't get anyone else in the way.

I'm also gonna go to the village of Frascatti where it won't nearly be as busy as the city.
