I like this view in Dublin. Standing the north side of the pillars in front of the old House of Lords now Bank of Ireland and look towards Trinity. It shows a very grand view of Dublin architecture which unfortunately isn’t matched by its surroundings. I wonder if the buildings we build today will be as impressive in hundreds of years as these ones? I doubt it.
By the way, this is the first photo I’ve published here from my new Canon Powershot SD1200 IS. I like the camera. Easy to use with enough manual settings to keep me happy. It’s a good size to, fits easily into any pocket but the viewfinder might as well not exist since it’s too small. Image wise it’s a good performer, way better than my old point and click. The photo above was taken handheld at night time and camera shake was well handled plus noise was at acceptable levels as well, that said I keep it at ISO100, noise does increase as you go up the ISO levels, but that is the case with all cameras. The 3x zoom is a little limited but it’s a 3x zoom so what do you expect. It wont replace my SLR but it lives in my laptop bag or coat and goes where ever I go so in that respect it’s better than my SLR. As the saying goes the best camera to take a photo is the one you have with you.
