Taken at a display by ‘Animal Magic’ in Killaloe. They were there as part of the Brian Boru festival.
Flare
I have a bit of a soft spot for sun flare. It can ruin a photo if it’s unnecessary and distracting from the rest of the image, but if you make the photo about the flare, sometimes it can work. Of course, an essential ingredient in sun flare is, suprisingly, sun, something we don’t exactly get in great abundance. So it’s nice to take advantage of it when it comes!
Blue and Green
Oh dear. Another blog post drought. This was taken at Brian Boru’s Fort, near Killaloe.
UL in the Snow
One thing I love about being addicted to Flickr and a load of photo blogs is that any time anything happens, such as the snow last week, I get a steady stream of pictures of it, from almost every inconceivable angle and location. It’s like having omnipresence! I was really jealous of the huge amount of pictures of snowy landscapes I’ve seen over the last few weeks, something I wasn’t able to do myself because a)we didn’t get anywhere near as much snow as the east coast and b) because I was too busy/lazy/cold to get off my ass and take more photos. I did catch one very thick flurry, however. Here are some photos of UL:
