Another month gone so let's continue these threads. Again, I was very active last month taking photos. The one below is my favourite.

Weird but cool picts.

Here's my two from April -

This image is now in use by Leinster rugby as a large poster in their dressing room.

And one from last weekend.

And now, May begins.

My favourite shot from April was taken at a friend's wedding and I'm sure he wouldn't want me posting his face on boards. It's on my flickr though here..

So here is my 2nd favourite picture from April:

love that shot, Ken. So much energy! Also love the perspective and processing on yours, Sasar. Val, that's a classic.

Took some decent shots this month but this one has got the most positive reaction

Taken the day of the big IFA Farmers march in Dublin.. This guy was standing on the step of the shop watching it all go by..

this guy has been hanging around my garden for ages, finally managed to snap him a couple days ago...

also represents possibly my first time ever being able to get a decently sharp handheld shot at 200mm

ok, well my lack of shooting pushed me to mess round with old ones, so technically this is a new shot now

Not been shooting much at all in the past few months at all. I guess this one will have to make do. It was as much a test on the lens to see if it was sharp, how it handled CA and rendered OoF backrounds etc as much as an attempt to take a nice piccy.

Is it just me or has the standard around here been kicked up a notch?

This is probably my fav of a bad lot from April.

Think I've only managed to get out once last month, here's the only half-decent one I have from Copper Coast in Waterford.... due to atrocious weather that weekend.

Taken quite a few photos since I finished my exams.
All I need now is time to go through them all!

This would probably be my favourite of the ones I've looked at.
