New Photoblog!
I’m finding some time to get out with my camera lately and also enjoying playing in the ‘digital darkroom’. So it’s time to relaunch the PhotoBlog!
It’s a record of the sights, things and people I see in my daily life here in West Cork, Ireland. Occasionally there will be images from further afield.
As an amateur photographer I won’t pretend that the images posted are of particular artistic merit: Instead they are pictures that I find interesting and which hopefully impart some of the essence of the things I see. If you choose to visit the site regularly I hope that a narrative will build that will add value to the pictures. (I’ll try not to post too many family shots – you’ll find those in the Picasa web albums.)
I’m learning every aspect of photography – from composition through to developing. If you have comments on an image you see I’d love to hear your thoughts on what works and what doesn’t work.
I’m hoping to post three images a week. The discipline of doing this will, I hope, lead to a gradual improvement. And it should be fun along the way!
You can subscribe to the photoblog in your news reader.
In case you’ve not come across a PhotoBlog before, there are thousands of great ones out there Three (out of many) which have acted as inspiration for me are:
- Chromasia
- InPhotos (by Donncha not far from here)
- Durham Township
And very many more at PhotoBlogs.org.
