This is a photograph from the 35th Michael Manning Memorial "Dunshaughlin 10KM" Road Race and Fun Run which took place in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday 21st June 2014 at 19:30. This race is widely acknowledged in the running community as one of the best races in Ireland. It is also one of the oldest 10KM races in Ireland. The numbers for this race have exceeded expectations year on year for the past number of years. In 2008 a record field of 306 took to the start line but by 2012 this number had more than doubled with 647 runners taking part. The starting numbers in 2013 topped this again at 668. Then this year the numbers rocketed to a new record of 883. Who knows but this race could reach 1,000 entrants next year. The work of the organising committee must be commended on making this event possible. The Dunshaughlin 10KM has earned it's place at the top of the pedestal of Irish running through the sheer hard work of Dunshaughlin AC over the years. Well done to all.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the race tonight taken at the 1 mile mark and then at the 400M and 600M to go mark. The full set is available at: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157645329098733/

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
Ecovolis (Albanian for "Ecobike"), the system launched March 23 with four stations with 10 bikes each. They've already sold 2,000 subscriptions and have rented bikes out to many more customers on a per-trip basis.
The public enthusiasm has exceeded the best expectations of the group behind the scheme: the Social Alternatives Incentive Programme (PASS). It's also stirred interest among potential corporate donors, who had earlier raised their eyebrows at the idea. “Before starting the project, it was very difficult for us to persuade companies to sponsor the project,” said PASS's director Ened Mato “Now the companies are interested and trying to negotiate with us to sponsor the project.”
The response has been so promising, PASS already plans to open an additional two stations in Tirana and even hopes to expand Ecovolis to neighbouring communities.
Although the system is admittedly small for a city of 600,000 people, Ecovolis has been a feat of ingenuity and perseverance given the circumstances. In terms of infrastructure, Tirana has only a few recreational paths on the margins of city green areas, and also a few experimental shared bus/bike lanes. There is simply no culture of transport cycling in the city, and the modal share -- if it were to be measured -- is assumed to be well under 1 percent.
In a sense, introducing bike sharing to Tirana is tantamount to introducing cycling to Tirana. Full stop. Organisers had to be realistic about the start-up budget, while at the same time, make a big splash and stimulate interest in a novel transport concept. And because PASS's core mission is creating opportunities for needy citizens, they wanted the programme to have a strong social element.
So PASS rolled out Ecovolis as one element of a broader programme called Tirana Community Bicycle. Part of its activities are giving away bicycles to children of needy families and part is offering necessary staff positions to marginalised citizens. The programme also includes Sunday cycling lessons and various cycling activities for youth.
In regard to the bike-sharing scheme, it had to be low-tech. A swipe-card activated system of the type operating in London, Paris, Barcelona (and soon in Budapest) would have been far too expensive for Tirana. And aside from the cost, swipe cards just aren't used much in Albania.
But this was fine. PASS fashioned Ecovolis as a social business: Each docking station is staffed by two attendants at all times. The necessary staffing not only creates jobs (two shifts per day = four jobs per station), it also puts a human face on the service. The attendants can explain and promote bike sharing while raising awareness of utility cycling in a brand-new market.
Key to getting the project off the ground was the support of Tirana City Hall and a cash donation of USD 24,000 from the George Soros-funded Open Society Foundation Albania (OSFA). Even more significant was a donation of 450 used bikes from the US-based Pedal for Progress organisation.
One difficulty has been the higher than expected maintenance needs. Although this is a typical challenge for bike-sharing systems, it may be hitting Ecovolis especially hard due to the inexperience of users and the somewhat delicate quality of the standard-issue bicycles. During the initial weeks of the project, 30 of the scheme’s 40 bicycles required repairs on any given day. PASS hopes to address this by purchasing sturdier, new bikes as the system is expanded. It was also hoped that as the scheme’s customers get used to the system, they'll learn to use the bikes without causing damages.
Despite teething problems, Ecovolis is moving ahead. Plans include creating a database of users and members to get a better handle on Ecovolis's market (half of subscribers are women) and to start giving service discounts to Ecovolis customers. Meanwhile, according to Mato, PASS is in talks with the mayors of Durres, Pogradec and Vlora for possible franchises.
Just an ordinary milk-crate out the front of a café after closing time. I liked the way it intersected with the parking-space lines in the background, although I should have used a tigher aperture or focussed on the middle of the crate instead of the back or something.

I hope everyone is aware that they did this same concept in 500 Days of Summer.
I've always liked it and wanted to try it by taking two quick snapshots that are nothing special with only different facial expressions.
For further explanation:
The top photo is of me smiling because it is simply expected and desired, but in reality, the bottom photo of me with a blank facial expression is how I truly feel.

Sometimes puzzling, sometimes provocative, works in advertising media by artists ranging from Marcel Duchamp to Jeff Koons to 0100101110101101.ORG have both delighted and disturbed audiences that are sometimes left to wonder exactly what it is they’re seeing. Indeed, artists have used the media of advertising to communicate content that often defies viewers’ expectations and frequently challenges them. Agency: Art and Advertising is an exhibition that explores artists’ use of advertising media as sites for works of art (as opposed to the more conventional use of advertising for the promotion of work) as well as its subject. The exhibition, curated by Kevin Concannon, PhD, and John Noga, will focus on works of art in and about advertising media from the 1960s to the present.
Artists themselves, who were largely critical of commercial culture when this “ad art” phenomenon first flourished in the 1960s, are now often ambivalent about –or even embracing of –the commercialism they once critiqued. Others simply choose to use advertising media in order to extend their reach beyond conventional contemporary art audiences. Agency: Art and Advertising examines the history of art in advertising spaces –and art that addresses commodity culture through the appropriation of advertising –as it has evolved over the past 50 years.
Stop and Stare
In conjunction with the exhibition, AGENCY: Art and Advertising, shown inside
the McDonough Museum of Art there are nine captivating works that are on view
outside the Museum’s walls. Dotting the Youngstown metropolitan area are
billboards featuring gigantic images created by artists Geoffrey Hendricks,
Marilyn Minter, Yoko Ono and John Lennon, and Felix Gonzalez-Torres. These
spectacular images line the sky, compelling the public to stop and stare.

It's always a joy when you get to work with a model who is a natural...and Katie is nothing if not natural. I'd like to take credit for having given her artistic direction for her pose in this shot....but I can't...it's all her own work.
Katie is the daughter of two of my friends...and just a delight to work with in the studio. All I really have to do is set up the lights...and let her be herself.
It's not always that easy...and I can recall a "photo session from Hell" with those who shall remain nameless (but if you were to guess they were Katie's older brothers [when they were much younger]...you might not be far wrong!)
You can see another shot from this session here:

I watched this last night. I hadn't seen it in a long time. Anne Bancroft used to scare me in this. It wasn't bad.
I have this book. I need to read it.
You never know what a day will bring. One day, 75 degrees. Two days later: possibly 2 to 4 inches of snow. Cannot believe we might actually have snow here.

El Parque del Amore is just a bit in your face. All of the erotica of the past Peruvian cultures as you might see in their ceramics did not go away with each wave of cultural domination. Instead it's installed here in a curious cliff top park dominated by a whopping big off the scale sculpture: El Beso (The Kiss).
El Beso, the plaque says, was created by a Peruvian artist, Victor Delfín. A monstrously large couple wrapped in each other’s arms, lock in a passionate kiss. Will an animatronic re-creation ever take its place with all the squelchy sounds and the inevitable coupling and decoupling you'd expect of such passion? Perhaps it could be coin-operated to cover the costs?
Down and around the promenades are mosaic walls depicting a lot and nothing — from ovaries, fallopian tubes and uterus to simply colourful non-specific patterns. Its a very strange place. The free admission goes some way to lowering expectations. Oddly, if you set your sights low enough, all of your expectations will likely be met, even exceeded.
