Was the litter there or contrived? REminds me of yesteryear when photogs used to show all their negs and be criticised for changing the scene for better composition?

It was moved - just a little:D:D

I didn't make her cry. It was just one of the many times that she comes up to me during the day while balling her eyes out.

Here's another from today. Can't make my mind up on the final print. B&W or Colour....

Personally, I think you'd need to be mad to leave that in B+W. I think her skin tone/lips work really well against the colour of her clothes and hair.

That said though, I'm not a fan of B+W in general.

Took this the other day. Nice and simple, I thought.

thank very much for that. yeah the fisheye is fairly obvious but it must be the topaz - i've noticed that affect in a lot of photos and often wondered about it.

thanks again.

One from the Boatnic Gardens today. It's odd but I do like it for the moment.

Who did I spot in the gardens today other than our own Daire Quinlan. Let me tell you that he doesn't sound quite as menacing in reality!

Just joking Daire. If you're offended let me know.

ah, so that WAS yourself, wasn't too sure. Yeah, was this in that cursed vegetable garden ? we'd already been there for about half an hour trying to stop my heir from drowning himself. At some point over the NEXT half hour I was sorely tempted on several occasions to tip the little monster into the pool.

Yes that was me, a lone Pentax user- a rare breed. The vegetable garden was pretty dull alright. I wouldn't have spotted yourself only for your good lady is quite distinctive looing, pregnant lady with short hair + wee lad + lanky irish looking dude in the botanics could mean only one thing- t'was yourself.

the grand canal theatre is actually on the right there but you're got the right spot. Hanover quay, the docklands, dublin 2 is the address. It's a very nice area for photography around there, definitely worth a trip
