    This was run last month , and was popular, favorite shot of month.
    for me it was my bestseller at exhibit, and some say my best ever , Tim on exiting the freezing 40 foot

    Thanks Barry for remembering to do this. I meant to do it but being the weekend my brain hadnt registered that it was March !

    I have a handful of favourite photos from this month, which were all taken during the boards visit to Monasterboice, Mellifont Abbey and Hill of Slane

    But as we are limited to one for this post, I have selected this one.

    Some excellent stuff there.

    On the assumption that having a vignette is not compulsory, heres mine.

    Have to say I really like this. I'm testing out photobox.ie for quality so I'm after ordering a 20x30 print of the above :)

    thebaz thats a cracking shot.

    SASAR, That image is excellent! I can just make out those streaks are busses!! was it planned that way or did two busses just happen to pass by?

    Can you provide some tech details on this image please? Also, is this image HDR?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 617 ✭✭✭sasar


    Thanks fguihen!
    I used wide angle lens @10 mm & ND8 filter and set shutter speed to 1/6 seconds. Iso 100, aperture f/22.
    Tone mapping in Photomatix and warp tool in Photoshop.

    On that day I played around with slow shutter to get some movement in my shots.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,057 ✭✭✭kjt


    Yea I really like that shot Sasar, It's quite dirty and dark.
    Great feeling to it!


    Here's mine:

    Nice shots overall folks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 287 ✭✭latchiko


    Nice processing sasar.

    I didn't get out much during February, but I quite like this diptych taken last weekend...

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 93 ✭✭Culann


    Here's mine. I didn't get out much last month. Sasar and KJT I really like yours and thebaz's is interesting as well.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,057 ✭✭✭kjt


    Thanks Culann! Nice sky, I think a tighter crop on that shot would make it look even nicer. Cut a bit of the bottom away?

    Had a look at your site, some nice shots!

    This would be my fave from Feb. Taken on Palanga beach, in Lithuania

    I really like Cabaals one of Tramore.

    This is my favourite from Feb... I think I already posted it on the 'random' thread but sure what the heck!

    There were two I took that I liked this month (for once!)
    I think I like this one best!

    I'm off to Venice next week so hopefully I'll get some good shots over there!

    I wasn't very happy with my general photography last month so my favourite is probably this one I took before the Ireland-Italy game

    Haven't anything to contribute but this is a cracking thread. Great variety and a real February feel to it.

    Likewise! Camera was in the bag for most of Feb.

    Good theme to this thread.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,204 ✭✭✭kensutz


    Agreed Valentia, most of February was spent shooting football matches so I have nothing to contribute this month.

    This picture was taken from the exact same spot as Positron's shot just above (not taken in Feb but thought that the similar location made it worth posting)

    The second image "Alice" was taken last month. I have just posted it in the Random Photo thread too. She is 11 months old, was making me my dinner (I was having plastic blocks and a small teddy all mixed together in her pot!) and she has the biggest brown eyes known to man! Enjoy!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,878 ✭✭✭whyulittle


    The bridge one is class Tarakiwa.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,744 ✭✭✭deRanged


    an annoyed bird gives me my favourite shot from Feb.

    Thanks.Yep, its an old church/graveyard 3 miles from Ballyvaughan. Fab Day, but hell was it cold that day....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,252 ✭✭✭bullpost


    Fantastic and unusual image - This would look great blown up and printed - From afar it looks like an abstract image.
    I really like Cabaals one of Tramore.

    This is my favourite from Feb... I think I already posted it on the 'random' thread but sure what the heck!
