People seem to prefer the color version of the canal photo so I thought I’d post that as well. Actually looking at it now it doesnt look as bad as when I had been processing it. Maybe it’s always best to take some time away from a photo before making a final decision on it.

A photo from last weekend. There was some boating festival on the canal in Dublin so I took some photos from Baggot St Bridge. They didn’t turn out too well in color but this one looked much better in black and white so I thought I’d post another B&W photo after a batch of color.

Another long exposure, 30 seconds at f14 and 10mm with the ND110 filter, it managed to remove the constant flow of traffic on the quays. A quick edit in Lightroom to fix the colour and brightness then a crop to make it a panoramic.

Another St Patricks Day photo but unfortunately I don’t have any newer ones yet. Also lets face facts my blog needs a bit of colour in it and nothing in my Lightroom catalogue is as colourful as this. I’m not sure which group this girl was in but it was easily one of the more interesting with with huge costumes and bright colours.

Been a busy week so even though it has been a whole week since St Patricks Day here is a second picture from the parade. This time it’s the North Carolina State Band. This photo caught my attention cause the girl seemed to actually enjoy being in the parade, many of the members of other bands who marched by seemed bored or just annoyed to be there, and I was close to the start.
