This is a photograph from the 4th annual running of the Lough Lene Gaels Hurling and Camogie Clubs New Year Road Challenge which was held in Collinstown, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Sunday 10th January 2015 at 13:00. The race is organised by the local GAA club called Lough Lene Gaels. There were two races on offer today - a 10KM road race and a 5KM road race, fun run, and walk. This is one of the first road races in the midlands of the New Year 2016 and attracted over 300 runners, joggers and walkers. As this was a community orientated event families were especially welcome in the 5KM race. The race was organised to raise funding for the development of the GAA pitches for the Lough Lene Gaels Hurling and Camogie Clubs. Overall this was a very successful event with a very large field of well over 300 participants in both races combined. The great local effort was exemplified by a very big local contingent from Collinstown and neighbouring areas. The 5KM race was an out and back course on the Collinstown to Fore Road. The 10KM was also on an out and back course with a deviation between 2KM and 7KM for the longer race. There were several tough hills but an equal amount of down-hill. For most participants both races were the proverbial race of two halves with the outward section down-hill and wind assisted with the return leg from Lough Lene to the finish (about 2.5KM in total) up hill and with a stiff sharp cold breeze in the face. Hot and cold refreshments were provided in the Lough Lene Inn Pub afterwards with prize-giving.

 

Timing and event management was provided by Red Tag Timing from Galway, Ireland. Their website is here [redtagtiming.com/] and will contain the results to today's race.

Collinstown is about 11 miles northeast of Mullingar in Co. Westmeath. The dominant geographical feature of the area and of both races is the beautiful Lough Lene a large freshwater lake close to the village. The water in the lake is internationally noted for the purity and clarity of its water and Lough Lene has regularly been awarded the blue flag status for water quality from the European Commission. It is well known amongst anglers. It covers approximately 430 hectares with water is measured to depths to 20m.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

 

As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:

 

     ►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera

     ►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set

     ►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone

     ►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!

  

You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

 

Don't like your photograph here?

What Students Say about Sino-bus Chinese Learn Online

In the past, I learned Chinese by myself at home, and I had no language environment, and I couldn't find any Chinese to communicate with, so my progress was very slow. Now on Sino-bus, the teacher will take me to study Chinese systematically, and I can discuss any topic I want with the teacher, and the teacher will also exchange her ideas with me. I like this class mode so much.

 

The recording and broadcasting class of Sino-bus is my favorite! You can watch it anytime and anywhere, and you can listen to the teacher's pronunciation repeatedly and read it with the teacher. Don't worry when you're busy at work. There's no time to learn Chinese.

 

Four years ago, I went to China to study abroad. After I returned home, I didn't learn Chinese for a long time, and my Chinese level dropped a lot. I started looking for an online teaching platform, and many courses on the platform couldn't meet my requirements, but Sino-bus has various types of Chinese classes. I think that's what I need, and I will keep learning.

While in Australia had I was required to take a 4WD course before heading out into the bush. Thisis an image taken from the top of the hill climb. Those are two different vehicles and this image was stitched together in photoshop. It was quite muddy because it had been raining all day making for challenging conditions.

This is a photograph from the Tullamore Harriers AC "Quinlan Cup" Half Marathon which was held on Saturday 29th August 2015 in Tullamore, Co. Offaly, Ireland at 12:00. This is the third year of the event. The race is organised and promoted by Tullamore Harriers AC. The race starts on the Charleville Road just outside the entrance to Tullamore Harriers. The race proceeds south along the R421 and onto the N52 before taking a route onto local back roads. The race then completes a large rural road route before it joins to the R421 again and the final 1.5 miles are the same as the first mile of the race. The runners enter Tullamore stadium and complete one lap of the tartan track before the finish line. The course is challenging in places with some undulations along the route. But overall it is fair course. 2013 seen the first year of the event as the club commemorated the 60th Anniversary of the formation of Tullamore Harriers AC which today is one of Ireland's best known athletics clubs.

The race was perfectly organised. The weather was good for racing but there was a very strong headwind for the first 6 miles of the race which made the conditions difficult. The weather was dry and warm except for the torrential downpour at around 1:45pm which cleared the whole finish area of spectators and runners. There were stewarts all along the route, 3 drink stations with bottled water, superb facilities, and great after-race refreshments. The stewards along the route provided great encouragement to all of the runners. Tullamore Harriers and the local community really worked together to make this is a wonderful event. There was also a relay option where teams of two can run approximately 10.5km each. In total almost 700 participants took part. This was higher than the 568 participants who completed the race which is almost 150 more than the 2013 event.

 

We have a large set of photographs from today's race at the start and the finish until the 2-00 finish time. They are available on Flickr at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157655560294853

As mentioned above this race half marathon started in 2013 and celebrated the 60th Anniversary (a Diamond Anniversary) of the foundation of Tullamore Harriers AC. The club was formed in the town in November 1953. However, it was almost 1979 before facilities close to what we see today open in the present day site. Over 50 provincial and national athletics meetings are held at Tullamore Harriers every year. The facilities available combined with it's central geographical location joining routes from North, South, East, and West make it a very attractive venue. The half marathon today firmly brings competitive national road racing back to "The Harriers". The Quinlan Cup which will be awarded to the winning club team. For more than 40 years the Harriers Quinlan Cup was the most prestigious event on the road racing calendar. Having started as a cross-country race back in 1957, it became a road race in 1967 and remained so until 2000 when the race was last held. During its reign as a blue-ribband event the Quinlan Cup was won by the likes of John Treacy and Eamonn Coughlan.

 

Today, the facilities at Tullamore Harriers are the envy of many athletics clubs in Ireland. The facilities provided by Tullamore make it one of the premier venues for local and national level athletics in Ireland. There is an Olympic standard tartan track, a fully equipped gym, changing facilities, press and media facilities, meeting room spaces, etc. The club also provides a social center and niteclub which makes "The Harriers" a very well known on the local social scene. Esssentially, the town of Tullamore would be a different place if it weren't for the presence of Tullamore Harriers AC.

I want get full resolution, print-quality, copies of these photographs?

 

If you just need these photographs for online usage then they can be used directly once you respect their Creative Commons license and provide a link back to our Flickr set if you use them. For offline usage and printing all of the photographs posted here on this Flickr set are available free, at no cost, at full image resolution.

 

Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.

 

In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages.

I would like to contribute something for your photograph(s)?

Many people offer payment for our photographs. As stated above we do not charge for these photographs. We take these photographs as our contribution to the running community in Ireland. If you feel that the photograph(s) you request are good enough that you would consider paying for their purchase from other photographic providers or in other circumstances we would suggest that you can provide a donation to any of the great charities in Ireland who do work for Cancer Care or Cancer Research in Ireland.

 

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs

We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?

The explaination is very simple.

Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.

ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.

 

Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/

 

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?

 

As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:

 

     ►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera

     ►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set

     ►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone

     ►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!

  

You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.

 

Don't like your photograph here?

That's OK! We understand!

 

If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

 

I want to tell people about these great photographs!

Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets

A handout for a conversation class.

Image: Female Student holding Library Books by CollegeDegrees360

One way to get to know someone is to get acquainted with their favorites. During my visit with David, I was able to get a triple dose. The first was the chance to meet his favorite people--Lynne, his sweet, sweet wife and his son, David, and girlfriend Megan. And where did I meet them? At David's home where I was able to see the new addition to the home--an open, airy space where he works on his photos and posts his feedback to Flickr friends--and the garden that he carefully tends. Truly, it is a life-giving space and I was so blessed to be so warmly welcomed into the family. We had a couple evenings of processing photos together. One night we all went out to dinner together at a local Carvery. My favorite time together was the night we watched the semi-finals of Britain's Got Talent together and cheering on Pudsey the pup. It was a taste of England that I will always cherish.

 

Saturday morning, we were up pretty early to give us all the time we needed to visit David's favorite places to photograph. And what a treat to have someone share their favorite haunts. It turned out that he took me to the "England" that had lived in my memory sense I first read Black Beauty, Lassie Come Home, and Peter Rabbit. All throughout our day, I kept feeling as though someone should pinch me just to make sure everything I was seeing was real. I guess it must have as I have photographic evidence. Here's a sampling of photos from Beacon's Fell and Chipping. Tomorrow, I post photos of the Trough of Bowland.

Saratoga Race Course, Saratoga Springs, New York

(Rollover picture)

 

A nice plump and fat langoustine crusted with plaintain dust and deep fried. The black bean-cumin puree and a unctuous avocado "salsa" (ie. guacamole) with a fried plaintain chip.

 

Taste: OHMYGOSH one of my favorite dishes that Bowles has created. This was really quite simple; he stylized it as "chip & dip." But, this was no ordinary chip & dip. The langoustine was very plumb and succulent and nicely crusted over with the fried plantain. I especially appreciated how the bits of plaintain stayed on the meat - I hate it when the fried skin completely pulls away from the surface from cakey moisture. Expert.

 

What really won me on this plate was the black bean puree, which had heft both in texture and taste. I lapped up every bit of the dark condiment which was smokey and dark with cumin. The avocado "salsa" seemed unnaturally buttery. Together, these two "dips" hosteda fiesta in my mouth.

 

Although I didn't appreciate the drink pairing by itself, with the dish, it made a lot of sense. The saltiness of the guacamole and other elements on this dish actually brought out the sweetness of the tomato - which was the missing traditional "salsa" flavor element in this otherwise true chip & dips.

Stone Lithography is new to me, but I like to try new techniques. I've wanted to atten one of Simon's courses for many years and at last my dream has come true.

 

My subject is the old north gate of Yarnton Manor, which I photographed a few weeks ago. I was thinking of a gateay by Caspar David Friedrich and maybe similar prints by John Piper. I find it useful to keep certain works in mind when beginning a new subject (and method). I feel I was somewhat traditional in my style for my first lithograph..but I hope next week to do another slightly more free drawing for my second print.

The Courses

Stone lithography courses are organised several times a year both at weekends and on weekdays. They are suitable for artists with or without previous experience of printmaking . Typically, participants are art students, art teachers, college lecturers, serious amateurs and professional artists in other media. As the number of places on the courses is kept to a maximum of four, each participant is encouraged to explore the medium in the way which is most appropriate to his or her own interests and experience, ranging from an introduction to the main technical processes of stone lithography, including preparation of stones, principal drawing and painting techniques and materials and printing skills, to more specialised subjects such as colour and transfer lithography. Other course formats and dates are negotiable: for example, a recent one day course was run for curators from the Word & Image Department of the V&A Museum.

A beautiful course consisting of diced 50 day aged Cumbrae’s beef mixed with whipped anchovies and cracked wheat berries that’s christened with dollops of confit egg yolk (yellow), shallot cream (white) and herb-garlic puree (green) with tamarack needles.

 

So good. I debated whether I enjoyed the nuggets of crunchy wheat berries contaminating the lush and flavourful tartare, but after some discussion with GC (i.e. 10 sec) concluded that the crunch did provide a pleasant textural contrast and the mild nuttiness helped round out the flavours.
