    Hi,
    (this might be better in Arts/Photography forums but I'll try here as it's with regards to Galway).

    I'm wondering what's the best way to try to get some photographs displayed in public/cafes etc. in and around Galway.
    1. Is it best just to approach places and talk to them and bring a portfolio?
    2. Has anyone done this before and what approach did you take?
    3. Presume that you'd pay for framing etc. yourself and the cafe/gallery etc. just displays them for you?
    4. What galleries, cafes etc. can you think of to approach?
    5. Is it possible to get a stall at the weekend market? Is there a contact number for the market?
    Some of my photographs are online here (more to be added soon- site not 100% finished so still a few teething problems) at http://patrick.dinneen.com/

    In my opinion a lot of my pics aren't any better than many others on the photography forum but I think my style is distinctive....

    cheers,
    Pa.
