    I'd say get the ball rolling now with people who have a single county to cover. Leave those who are willing to cover a few counties until the end, and hopefully we can get a person-per-county by then.

    Theres no rush, and I want to make sure that we do have every county covered as I said before.
    Also, I might start this weekend with Charville. I think that might represent offaly pretty well :)

    I would be very surprised if there is a county that doesnt have a poster based in it.

    Maybe invite some regular poster from the unclaimed counties to participate!

    ive a few ideas for when im doing dublin, but are we all thinking of nice flattering shots that will capture the beauty of our respective counties or are people thinking of other ideas also?? dont want to be the only one that shoots something that may be a little gritty when everyone elses photos are real pretty...

    Let me put it to you this way. If you take a picture that some else is taking then its not unique.

    Make it your own, and take it your own (way)

    whatever you decide is what you should take

    I remember a story on Radio Ulster.

    Two sisters, one lived in Lifford, Co. Donegal, the other a mile away in Strabane, Co. Tyrone.

    They were getting pretty old and didnt see each other that much anymore.

    The sister in Strabane sent a Christmas card to the other in Lifford.

    The card went from Strabane to Derry, then on to the main sorting office at Mallusk,
    outside Belfast.

    From there, it ventured to the main sorting office in Dublin. From Dublin to journeyed to Letterkenny PO, and on to Lifford.

    Three days to arrive a mile away. :)

    Whoooo there horse. I didn't know it was only for people from the county taking pics of the county. I am indeed from Dublin but I do keep a barge in W. Meath and indeed a lot of my photo are taken there as I'm there a lot. Loads of stuff on my Pix.ie is from there and of people from there. Surely that counts. I'm a H2'Omeless river dweller.
    And in Athlone too by the way. Birthed there about 6 months ago. Pop down for a cuppa sometime, I'll show you the camera!!

    My first thought too:D (Sorry HK)
    Seeing that photo759 is a new member could be as well that he/she wanted to quote and add something and it didn't work...??:confused:
