Was driving over that make-shift bridge one foggy night. The lamp over the stone bridge to the left in the fog makes it look really eerie,would be a great b&w i think

Where were these taken Linda? I recognise that fox! I've seen him around Ringsend Park the odd time...

Took them in George Renolds Flats...Looks like he's a new feature, hanging around the ferrell cats for a meal.:o

hmm,the rickitty bridge as in the one with the wooden planks and the green metal cover? If its that one then you go through the main entrance then take the immediate left down a road with trees on each side (more photo fodder on a sunny day).Through that then you can see the rickitty bridge.not entirely sure how public it is,i'm sure you could blag it though.If you went over the bridge then you would end up by the private houses and on the way to the club house i think.not too sure of any other bridges on the grounds though

Sort of a self portrait. I used a monkey to hit the cable release. Not perfect by any means with the horizon being way off. Just wanted to try out my new 80-200 2.8!

that poor dude is missing a bit of his wing!There are a load of these huge dragonflies along the canals lately,want to get some high speed shots of them with a zoom.

I I think keeping the top in emphasizes the subject and uses the rule of thirds.it doesn't really distract from the subject and keeps the photo centrally balanced.....I think!

Not sure about this one, some people like that the stones semi-circle is not complete on left and some don't.

Not sure about crooked horizon either.

Love to know what you think.
