    i see waterford is still not covered - i'll be going there on holidays in august - if no-one else volunteers i could take that pic too. It'd only take me 2 weeks to take the photo there ;)

    Needs to be a boardsie!

    Don't worry, we'll get someone


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Ah balls I thought Waterford was already done! I just bumped my thread in the Waterford city forum will give it a day and if no joy will post in the Waterford county forum

    I'll be moving down to Laois in 6-8 weeks time (waiting on contracts) if you need someone for there.

    Already done thanks :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Ok so here is how it looks now :D and looking at the table maybe this is a good order to go in? From Antrim to Cavan, then to Monaghan as they are fairly close so would speed things up a bit

    Right I'm here to kick it again, Carraig Fhearghais has that snap been taken yet? If and when it is done will you pm unclebill on the table above to arrange the next step and let us know when you have?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Nope, this thread is not allowed to go to page 2 or lower until it is done!! :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,689 ✭✭✭joeKel73

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,127 ✭✭✭✭kerry4sam


    Keep up the Great Work in here everyone :) I can't wait to see the end result!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,816 ✭✭✭unclebill98


    Details exchanged, camera shall be with my shortly...... Feeling the pressure...... Not sure a picture of a Quinn building would be a good idea!


    2 and a 1/2 years...... I've only noticed that....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,800 ✭✭✭The Guvnor


    Almost there now just three more pics!?

    The pressure is there alright bill - just one click and all that!:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 371 ✭✭Catxscotch


    Well now I'm shi**ting myself..what did everyone else take pictures of?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Folks don't be worrying about the pic. Just have a think about places in your county you know which might be a good pic, but I think say nothing on here until hopefully the pics go up, then quote your own pic and say where it is why you took it etc

    So very very very close!!! :D

    Don't sweat it Cat - it's not like GAAman is going to put on an exhibition of the pictures in a swanky Dublin gallery, wait, maybe he is...:eek:

    I did a scenic (he hopes) shot from an elevated viewpoint - wait and see, worst part is being used to digital cameras, instant how did it look answer!

    This could be like the end of Hangover!:D

    I had actually suggested taking a digital picture as well just in case (I am not going to say why and jinx it at this late stage but I am sure you will know what I mean)

    Brilliant! Getting closer still!

    Bill will you pm catxscotch now and get their address details? That way when you take the pic it will be ready to go to them. And catxscotch will you pm fitzcoff and get their details now so the next step is ready there too?

    This is great news that we are now on the home stretch.

    It's been a long slog, with 3 or 4 of us trying to drive the project on at various stages, one of the the hardest parts was trying to keep the table up to date, I don't want to have to work with that markup language again :)

    A big thanks should go to the guys pushing us over the final hurdle, keep her lit!

    I was going to mention certain people such as yourself, Joe, Homer and a couple of others in my reply to artyeva saying fair play but I am always conscious of tempting fate so waiting till it is all done before I do so :)

    And yes, I will be glad to see the back of that bbcode table too :D

    But because it is getting closer still.....

    I just hope all the photo's made it through the postal system 32 times unscathed! that and hopefully there will be no "self portraits" if you know what I mean :o

    I am guessing there will be a few pictures of the inside of an envelope due to people automatically winding the camera on out of force of habit.

    Oh and that's what I meant by the bold part I didn't want to say anything until all pics were taken ;)

    does anybody know the count on the camera,
    when I had the camera about 7 years ago, the count was right for the amount of people and pics before me.

    🌞 3.8kwp, 🌞 Split 2.28S, 1.52E. 🌞 Clonee, Dub.🌞

    Hahahahaha!

    [Four_Yorkshiremen] You think that's bad? When I had the camera it was actually a sheet of slate and I had to carve what I was looking at on it![/Four_Yorkshiremen]

    :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 552 ✭✭✭Carraig Fhearghais


    I didn't note down the exact counter, but I think it was around 29/31 ish. so pretty much on target.
    (although I did notice the best before date was well past!! :eek:, so there may possibly be some colour cast/contrast reduction when it is processed)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,816 ✭✭✭unclebill98


    Hi,

    Camera came during the week. Will be tomorrow or Monday before I get to take pic.

    There is I think 10 pics left on the camera and the best before is 10/2011.

    I've sent a pm to cat scotch.no reply yet.

    Will keep you posted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 371 ✭✭Catxscotch


    Soory Uncle Bill, was off line for a few days, PM sent, and getting excited!

    Have to say, I'm eagerly awaiting the results of this. I have often trawled through pages of the photography forum looking for this thread to see if there had been any update and now it is on the home straight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Ok bill any joy on the pic yet? Am I right in thinking everyone else on the list has swapped details with each other at this stage?

    :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,370 ✭✭✭GAAman


    Bumping this right off page 2 and back to page 1! :)

    I sent bill a pm just there

    Edit: Bill got back to me and is indisposed at the moment. I won't go into detail as it is not my place to and I have told him to take all the time he needs
