The Samuel Becket Bridge

January 29th, 2010

While in Dublin last weekend I got some shots of the newly opened Samuel Becket Bridge, joining Sir John Rogerson’s Quay on the south side of the River Liffey to Guild Street and North Wall Quay in the Docklands area.


In Dublin – Fancy A Coffee?

January 23rd, 2010

I’m currently on the bus on my way to Dublin.
I’m heading to a talk at the IMMA (Irish Museum of Modern Art) titled ‘What is (New) Media Art?
I know plenty of people who may be interested in attending.
This talk series provides a general introduction to key concepts and themes in contemporary art. Maeve Connolly, Department [...]


A Good Memory

November 2nd, 2009

What an eventful few weeks.
I saw something beautiful.
Now it’s cold and I need a new winter coat.
Remember the good…


So It Is

October 19th, 2009

It was a weekend of many firsts…
On Friday I went to my first movie premier; Couples Retreat in the Savoy, Dublin, with introductions by Director Peter Billingsley, Producer Scott Stuber and Writer/Actor Vince Vaughn. Walking down the red carpet with bright lights pointing on me was fun, getting free sweets and a soft drink was [...]


The Liberties Photo Walk (and IWA09)

October 14th, 2009

Admittedly it took a couple of days to recover from the incredible Irish Web Awards on Saturday evening. Simply because Damien knows how to get a bunch of people of similar interest in a room, give out some awards and let everyone have a good time. It always works. This one was no different. I [...]


Howth

September 23rd, 2009

Last Saturday myself and Chris found ourselves in Howth, Co. Dublin. Based on what I had seen from the plane in Feb while landing in Dublin from Cork, as well as what I’d heard others say, we took a chance at somewhere to visit outside the city. So glad I did, and will try and [...]


Happy Birthday to meeee :)

July 15th, 2009

It’s my birthday.
No no, it’s ok if you forgot, I’m not making a big deal of it.
For a change I had drinks with some friends in Dublin at the weekend. It was a lot of fun.
Myself and Lauren went on a Secret Photo walk (for the new Simply Zesty site) followed by drinks in Le [...]


Street Performance World Championships Dublin 2009

June 28th, 2009

I always think that if we had heat like the past couple of weeks I’d never get anything done, between being overcome with tiredness, enjoying the sweet outdoors, or just not having the inclination to do anything remotely challenging. However, last weekend I was at the Street Performance World Championship in Dublin’s Merrion Square and [...]


A Little Rain Never Hurt Anyone

June 10th, 2009

While the rain prevented much the photo planned photo walk on Saturday and kept us in the pub for a while, Ben, Kate and myself dodged the raindrops and walked towards the City Hall the huge hall and statues:

It was still raining when we got out. So quickly returned to the pub.


Dublin Bus in Motion

June 9th, 2009

I doubt this will be the first time I mention this photo theme. I’ve been experimenting quite a bit lately with images involving motion; some simple, and some requiring a little more thought, timing and often luck. Definitely something I plan to put a lot more thought and time into.
Here are a few shots taken [...]
