^ wow great action shot, and look at the effort by the Welsh fella trying to stop our Man-of-the-Match ! (ie. how long is a piece of string?!)

I was wondering what Morrisseeee was talking about (how long is a piece of string) until I looked at the photo again.

Yeah the Welsh guy on the ground is trying to halt O' Leary's gallup by holding on to a piece of string from his expensive O2 Puma jersey heeee

This is that 'Morrisseeee noticed' shot zoomed in by 300%

(All photos taken from the Stand)




By the way this is only a crop of an earlier photo - by way of clarification of the at the time mysterious comment by Morrisseeee about the string.

Thanks not warranted.

Seeing a few images from Paddy's day reminded me of the best St. Patricks Day experience I have had yet. Last year, the sunday before Paddy's day, I was in a little town called Kingston, in up state New York, visiting my brother who was over there for a year. We knew some people who knew some people who got us into the parade. Easily the best experience ever, great day, great weather, great people, great craic. It's a shame it's only a memory, I'll hopefully head back next year! Anyway, here's a few images from it I know I'm only meant to have one or two but there small and I couldn't resist :P

Let me know what you think!

Finally got some old film developed... With streak for added authenticity (no idea what it is by the way it appears on about a quarter of my photos)

The texture and tone of the top 2 photos is great - what type of camera?

Nikon D90 with 18-105 VR lens. Really sunny day, was truly incredible weather! It was only 4 days old or so at the time.

Not normally a sunflare fan, but I think it works well here.
