Photowalk - Sat 1st Dec (Booklaunch day)

SinisterDexter

This is being run in conjunction with the Boards Photobook Launch (which takes place in DCC that night, all are welcome).
This walk is open to everyone with a camera.

• You DON'T have to be going to the book launch.
• You DON'T have to have a photo in the book.
• You DON'T need to know what all the settings on your camera do (hell I don't know half of mine, I just organise walks)
• You DON'T have to start at the start, just text me when you are in the city/nearby

Start Time: 1pm
Start Point: Bottom of Grafton St / Molly Malone Statue end
Going to:
- National Library of Ireland (Nassau to Kildare street)
- St. Stephen’s Green
- National Museum of Ireland (History, Merrion St)
- Merrion Square
- Westland Row (Pearse St Train Station)
- Trinity College (Through Pearse St entrance)
- College Green to Dame Lane
- Dame Lane (should be getting dark by now 4:30ish)
- behind Dublin Castle (Chester Beatty Library)
- TBC
- St. Patricks Cathedral (night)
- stumble back to Against the Grain (6ish)

Against the Grain is a small bit down the street from the DCC.
The launch is at 8pm.

• If you have any suggestions for deviations then please message here or PM me.
• As said before - Everybody with a camera is welcome. You might want a Tripod for the dark/night part (but then you got to carry it throughout the day)
• For people new to this 'Photowalk' idea - it is always free (well mine always are)
• Tell me here that you will be along at some point so I can PM you my number, and PLEASE pm me back yours.

See you there!




SideNote: Last year I planned in a stop for food/drink/seat as it is a long walk. I couldn't think of any place to stop this year that would be good for all, and this is where I lost a good few people last year. We are starting at 1 and it lasts for 5 hours. I will grab a seat along the way (in the museums/parks) and I suggest ye do the same.
I will be having lunch in Porterhouse Central (Molly Malone statue) before the walk and will be grabbing dinner in Against The Grain after. You're welcome to join me for both.

Well that's my food and drink sorted. I'll regale ye 2 with stories of Tonka Toys used as roller skates in the 1970's and other such blinding anecdotes.

Tonka Toys for skates? Luxury. We used to have to draw our dinner on paper plates before we could pretend to eat it.
