Donncha Goes To Chicago
I fly to Chicago tomorrow with Jacinta but we did a little shopping today, and I popped into that small music shop on Washington St. to buy the new Fred album! Imagine my surprise when I discovered that the CD inlay features the Chicago cityscape on it! Mad!
Some great tunes on the album too!
My feather?
Taken from the same photo as yesterday’s shot.
Tickets sell out for U2 concert
Shock! Horror! Tickets sold out within 3 hours for the 3rd U2 concert on June 27th.
I got mine, did you?
Home of the birds
A small crop from a much larger photo, taken from the multi-storey car park on the Grand Parade, Cork.
Daisies
We’ve all gone out and taken pictures of the pretty flowers.. I’m as guilty as the next guy!

Today I took delivery of a new Canon 75-300 IS USM lens. It’s a nice zoom lens, although seemingly slated by everyone who has used more expensive lenses. That seems to be par for the course – the lenses I can afford aren’t up to much apparently.
On the way home I took a few photos of horses in a nearby field. Here’s one I liked..
Here’s a 100% crop fron the photo below. The shot out of the camera is a little soft but hover over the photo to see what effect a simple unsharp mask does for the sharpness of the image.
Haunted Photo
The story accompanying this photo is creepy! Photo is great too! I don’t think I’d have gone back there if I’d known it was haunted!
