First of all, I want to thank you all for your comments on my last post. It was a real boost for me to read them all and I know how difficult it is to know what to say when someone tells you they’ve lost a loved one so thanks for taking the time to let me know you care.

Now, I mentioned a couple of days ago about the group Creativity in the Classroom and how I had spent an afternoon photographing one of their workshops in a Dublin school. Well, it was so much fun for me, and I have been happily processing the photographs and wanted to share some of my favourites. So today and tomorrow I’ll put a few up here and you can check out some more, if you like, on Flickr.

The sun flare in the photo above came in very useful with making the pupils less recognisable.

Some of the children’s artwork:

Finally, the long lists for the Irish Blog Awards have been slowly leaking out over the past few days. I’m really chuffed to see that Gingerpixel has been nominated in Best Photoblog and Best Blog! Thanks to whoever nominated me for that one, I’m extremely flattered. Check out the other nominees, the standard this year is excellent.

Congrats on the nominations, let the battles commence Claire I also got in to those two rounds.

That first image is once again another stock image classic, im telling you start submitting them to those guys would help pay for that next lens.

Congrats on both nominations they are well deserved.

You are an artist and not just a photographer. Your subjects ‘Talk’ to me!

These all turned out so great! My favorite is the hand, closely followed by the witch. :)
