All Ireland Football Final Photo Day

    Just raising a flag here to see if anyone salutes.


    The concept is that 'we' start taking photos on All-Ireland Football Final day.
    And create a thread.

    The cars/coaches leaving for the match.... the posters/good-luck messages.
    The kids dressed up and face painted- and some grown ups too!
    The stop for tea and sandwiches.
    The local pub.
    The local club.
    The crowds around Croke Park.
    The Celebrations.
    The commiserations.
    The craic
    The welcome Home
    The total Irishness.

    Would anyone be interested

    All photos would have to be posted on the thread within 48 hours/ thread is locked down.

    I like the idea but the 48hour close isn't giving the film users much time to put the pics up.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 4,948 ✭✭✭pullandbang


    Sounds like a good idea - even those not going to the match can take part. Local pub, local flags etc.

    Maybe though you should put a limit on how many pics per post or how many per person - otherwise you might have single posts with dozens of shots and individuals posting every shot they took! Then the thread just gets boring.....

    I would be interested (that is if we get to the final:D)

    sorry - forgot about that!

    What would be a reasonable time frame - till the following Sunday?

    Would a max of say 3 to 4 photos per person be reasonable?

    Any other ideas/suggestions anyone?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,459 ✭✭✭Dodgykeeper


    Sounds like a great plan, I will be pitchside if Dublin beat Mayo on Sep 2nd so would defo like to be involved! Agree that a limit of 5 pics per poster, otherwise it could get boring!

    Up the Dubs!

    thanks

    maybe I should have held back until the Finalists were decided- but just wanted to gauge interest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,324 ✭✭✭keps


    So just to firm up on some ideas.

    --The thread ( not this one - but a new specific one) will open at 8am on Sunday 23rd September 2012 and will close( for additional posts) at midnight the following Saturday.

    --Max of 5 photos per person.

    --atmosphere photos especially welcome

    Your timing's great keps. Regardless of allegiance there's always great fun to be had all over the city, it's Finals Day!

    Deadline should be 3p.m on the following Saturday, it gives time to pop it in to be developed and scanned, picked up and worked on by the end of the week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 823 ✭✭✭thatsnotmyname


    I am up for it!
    I did something similar last year

    Good question ..maybe no lock then


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,744 ✭✭✭✭thebaz


    Good idea - regarding football, it will take some effort to top Dublin's last gasp win , for excitement


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,324 ✭✭✭keps


    If there are any Donegal people out there - will you bear in mind the idea of the Final Foto Day - and maybe think of a few photo concepts....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,324 ✭✭✭keps


    And what county will be getting the next alert?


    Dublin or Mayo?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,324 ✭✭✭keps


    Just to confirm - there is no deadline/ lock down.

    And rather than starting a new thread - this will be the photo thread.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,324 ✭✭✭keps

    Now that we know both teams..


    will people from Donegal and Mayo make a big effort to make sure this is not a year (or thread) to be forgotten.

    Get your cameras on the ready -show us your posters and good luck messages - c'nom

    DO IT NOW

    AND KEEP DOIN' IT

    Just a reminder for those in Mayo & Donegal - that if there are any supperter type posters/billboards/painted cars/painted cows or any interesting ' colours' that it would be great to see them!:)
