Who did I spot in the gardens today other than our own Daire Quinlan. Let me tell you that he doesn't sound quite as menacing in reality!

ah, so that WAS yourself, wasn't too sure. Yeah, was this in that cursed vegetable garden ? we'd already been there for about half an hour trying to stop my heir from drowning himself. At some point over the NEXT half hour I was sorely tempted on several occasions to tip the little monster into the pool.

Yes that was me, a lone Pentax user- a rare breed. The vegetable garden was pretty dull alright. I wouldn't have spotted yourself only for your good lady is quite distinctive looing, pregnant lady with short hair + wee lad + lanky irish looking dude in the botanics could mean only one thing- t'was yourself.

the grand canal theatre is actually on the right there but you're got the right spot. Hanover quay, the docklands, dublin 2 is the address. It's a very nice area for photography around there, definitely worth a trip

Depends on the user your gonna C+C I'd imagine. If yer gonna trash an image, probably would be best to ask the poster first if they mind you giving constructive criticism.

In saying that though, I'm not that familiar with this thread... Can't imagine why anyone wouldn't want C+C. Can't do any harm (unless your C+C is "lolz sux").

From the opening post:

A little discussion is allowed but don't enter into debate as the thread is intended mainly to show photographs.

Usually people should start an own thread if they want C&C, some sometimes post here and ask for it, but obviously don't get too much. For me it's C&C enough here to see how many and who likes my pic. Not sure if I'm interested in more C&C. But maybe just me.

C & C is not normally given on this thread. Usually users post on a new thread and invite C & C there
