The SadOldTosser's Guide to Photography
Matt presents a guide to photography that everyone should read. It explains in gentle lessons how to get the most from your camera and improve your photography! Brilliant!
Some, such as Donncha … would appreciate some advice to help make their pictures just that little bit more professional and less amateurish at the same time.

FlickrUploadr – Linux Flickr.com uploader
FlickrUploadr is a Flickr upload tool written in Python and Gtk.
It runs on Linux and probably any platform that are supported by Python and Gtk which is most of the popular ones!
I haven’t tried it yet but have to admit I don’t mind the email uploader. Attach a load of photos and click Send. Simple.
(Thanks Donal!)

23 Photo Sharing
23 is a new photo sharing site like flickr.com. It doesn’t have the fancy Flash interface that flickr Organize has but the free account allows you to upload 1024MB 15MB (The help page is out of date!) per month, and you can have as many albums as you want!
I uploaded a few photos already and it works well!
An Ceili Mor – Part 1
The Ceile Mor was held in Cork City last Saturday in an attempt to break the world record for the largest Irish dancing event ever! The organisers hoped to get over 10,000 partipants, but as it was, they managed 8,371 which was enough to beat the previous record held by the town of Dublin in the USA! Here’s a few pictures from the day. Ryan has plenty more shots too!
