This image is about the best of what I had been planning my whole trip to Manhattan for. I think Ernest Hass had done the main pavilion at twilight before, and in truth I think the exterior design is rather a bore despite the reputation of the Center itself. Still I want to leave nothing noteworthy out in my Manhattan collection so on to my mission.
I had tried a shot like this a few months back and from that experience knew the police and security would object to the use of a tripod. That experience was a failure because I got so upset and distracted that I calculated all but the obvious need to focus manually, bust! None the less that time I was allowed to set up on the sidewalk.
This time I hedged my bet by snapping this to kill time while waiting for the crowd to die down. This was a no tripod deal and simply holding the camera steady on a traffic cone which was on the stairs. Thus technically a Canon 5D Mark II & EF 24 mm with a Hoya Intensifier and a 6th of a second exposure. That done I went for the biggie!
No sooner had I set up the tripod, a cop comes over, bum rushes me off the sidewalk, and even objects to my standing in a vacant parking space. Figure out how to do it from across the street he says. So you tell me who are they really looking out for, and since when are the sidewalks and streets private?
I’ve heard it all, 9-11 security claims, the stop and frisk , suspicious character cracks, no tripods,no flash, get a permit, wrong time of day, on down to what’s your business, who’s it for and, who do you know. Bottom line is New York is as graft minded and crocked as back in the days of Tammany Hall when the Federal Government called in the National Guard to run the city because nobody local could be trusted.
Hence a tripod would have insured a sharper image but if you ever do see one of Lincoln Center all you’ll be looking at is crony payoffs!
This is a house near to my parents' place that has been a building site for about a year. We have no idea what the owner is trying to do with it, or why it is taking so long. Why would you have what looks to be a door above a sloping roof?
1953 Voigtlander Perkeo I with Vaskar lens. Ektachrome E100VS, 1/100s f/16.
This is my first roll of E100VS. I've been told that it is an often overlooked film here in the UK. I'll definitely be using it more.
Phuket is one of the southern provinces of Thailand. Neighbouring provinces are (from north clockwise) Phang Nga and Krabi, but as Phuket is an island it has no land boundaries.
Phuket, which is approximately the size of Singapore, is Thailand’s largest island. The island is connected to mainland Thailand by two bridges. It is situated off the west coast of Thailand in the Andaman Sea.
Phuket formerly derived its wealth from tin and rubber, and enjoys a rich and colorful history. The island was on one of the major trading routes between India and China, and was frequently mentioned in foreign ship logs of Portuguese, French, Dutch and English traders. The region now derives much of its income from tourism.

This is a photograph from The '5K Paddy Run' Road Race and Fun Run held in Kinnegad, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on St. Patrick's Day March 17th 2014 at 10:00. The race was organised to raise funds for the St. Vincent de Paul Kinnegad branch. The race was very well organised and followed the route of the well known Kinnegad 5KM Road Race which takes place annually every summer in the town. About 130 participants took part in the race and ran, jogged, or walked the 5KM route. Despite the cold morning the weather was perfect for running and everyone involved enjoyed the St. Patrick's Day outing.

This is a fast flat course. The course is right handed. The course starts on the old N4 Sligo Road (goo.gl/maps/JWpnK) and proceeds to quickly turn right onto the Killucan road. There is a downhill stretch at the 1km mark where just after the course takes a right turn onto Boreen Bradach (a well known walking route). The race stays with the boreen, which has a very good road surface, until about 800 meters to go where the race emerges into a housing estate. The final right turn is onto the main street for the finish (goo.gl/maps/es2Up). There was a water station along the route. All kilometers were marked and overall the course was perfectly accurate for 5KM. Refreshments were served in Scanlon's Bar on the main street after the race. Well done to the race organisers who, after today's very successful first attempt, hope to make this race an annual event on St. Patrick's Day.

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
This is a photograph from the finish of the 11th annual Kinnegad 5KM Road Race and Fun Run 2022 which was held in the town of Kinnegad, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 13th July 2022 at 19:30. This race is organised by Coralstown Kinnegad GAA club with assistance from Coralstown Kinnegad Athletic Club. This race has firmly established itself on the local race calendar and yet again the race retains wonderful support from local clubs and runners. Like most road races this race returned from the enforced absence during the COVID-19 pandemic. The race route continues to remain the same.
The race was first run in 2010 (see the photograph link below). The race is a right handed course, flat and fast and takes runners on a traffic free route which includes 3KM on the local road 'Boreen Bradach', which is a very popular walking and jogging route around the outskirts of the town. The boreen is a flat and sheltered by hedgerow. The boreen emerges onto the main street with the finish is on the famous main street of Kinnegad in front of Harry's Hotel. This Kinnegad streetscape will be well known to many many people who traveled between the east and west of Ireland before the arrival of the motorway system which we have today. Kinnegad is situated at the intersection of the both the M6 Galway bound motorway and the M4 Sligo/Mayo bound motorway.
Tonight's weather for almost perfect for racing. The recent warm weather continued with temperatures of around 17C on the night and a light breeze. Refreshments were served in the GAA club afterwards

This motel is located in Delle, Utah. The motel was featured in the movie “Resident Evil – Extinction” This is the location where the Claire Redfield Convoy was attacked by a massive flock of crows. They added a lot of set dressing (no longer present) and the special effects guys buried the motel in a mountain of sand (via CGI) but this is the location where they filmed the scene. Further east is the location of the gas station where Alice found the note book containing the map to the “Infection Free Zone” in Alaska. I was hoping to get shots of this gas station but it has, unfortunately, been torn down.
this is achilles sitting in my favorite chair we own...it has all these wooden circles all over it. awesome chair.
jackson was on the other side with me...very interested in achilles. achilles was unsure of what to do, where to go, etc.
he eventually ran off, but stayed for a while just looking overwhelmed.
i have been a bit overwhelmed lately. possibly an understatement. i feel that we can overcome everything that is being thrown at us, but it doesnt mean it is always easy.
i love my family and friends and how much help they provide. everyone has come together with such strength. thank you to all of you who have provided that strength as well. i may not be on flickr as much as i would like, but i do look at photos when i can.
had SUCH a fun day today with my mom...i got to SHAVE HER HEAD! how awesome is that? how many kids get to do that to their parents? i doubt very many...
well, achilles and i may be a little overwhelmed at times, but we are all in this together, and figuring it out one day at a time.
This is what my eldest son bought me for Mother's Day.
Why is one lamp not shining? It was too far away from the socket !!! I am a lucky lady, just need to learn how to use it now :)

This is a photograph from the start of the SSE Airtricity Dublin City Marathon 2018 which was held in Dublin Ireland on Sunday 28th of October 2018 at 09:00 (and several subsequent wave starts). This year is the third year since the organisers decided to move the marathon from its traditional Bank Holiday Monday slot to Sunday. This proved to be an incredible success with yet again one of the largest fields ever for the marathon in Dublin and an entry of 20,000 people. The weather was absolutely perfect with ideal running conditions for the marathon with a perfect crisp and sunny autumn morning in the captial.
This set of photographs are from the start after around 400m. The full set of photographs are available on our Flickr photostream at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157702771827234

This is an image from a shoot which drew inspiration from Tim Burton's: Corpse Bride.
The aim was to stir emotion and feelings of empathy as the image depicts a love that was not even ended by death.
Shot on location in Epping Forest on the edge of London on a sunny day in July, I relied heavily on speed-light strobes to overpower the sun and give the darkened edgy feel to the shot
Lighting was achieved with a Single Jessops 360 AFD inside a modified bowens reflector @ 1/8 power. Light was held Directly over the the camera straight at the subjects and fired using the Cactus V4 wireless trigger system.

Scarborough Castle is a former medieval Royal fortress situated on a rocky promontory overlooking the North Sea and Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England. The site of the castle, encompassing the Iron Age settlement, Roman signal station, an Anglo-Scandinavian settlement and chapel, the 12th-century enclosure castle and 18th-century battery, is a scheduled monument of national importance.
Fortifications for a wooden castle were built in the 1130s, but the present stone castle dates from the 1150s. Over the centuries, several other structures were added, with medieval monarchs investing heavily in what was then an important fortress that guarded the Yorkshire coastline, Scarborough's port trade, and the north of England from Scottish or continental invasion. It was fortified and defended during various civil wars, sieges and conflicts, as kings fought with rival barons, faced rebellion and clashed with republican forces, though peace with Scotland and the conclusion of civil and continental wars in the 17th century led to its decline in importance.
Once occupied by garrisons and governors who often menaced the town, the castle has been a ruin since the sieges of the English Civil War, but attracts many visitors to climb the battlements, take in the views and enjoy the accompanying interactive exhibition and special events run by English Heritage.
Scarborough is a town on the North Sea coast of North Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the North Riding of Yorkshire, the town lies between 10–230 feet (3–70 m) above sea level, rising steeply northward and westward from the harbour on to limestone cliffs. The older part of the town lies around the harbour and is protected by a rocky headland.
With a population of just over 61,000, Scarborough is the largest holiday resort on the Yorkshire coast. The town has fishing and service industries, including a growing digital and creative economy, as well as being a tourist destination. People who live in the town are known as Scarborians.
The most striking feature of the town's geography is the high rocky promontory pointing eastward into the North Sea. The promontory supports the 11th-century ruins of Scarborough Castle and divides the seafront into two bays, north and south.
The South Bay was the site of the original medieval settlement and harbour, which form the old town. This remains the main tourist area, with a sandy beach, cafés, amusements, arcades, theatres and entertainment facilities. The modern commercial town centre has migrated 440 yards (400 m) north-west of the harbour area and 100 feet (30 m) above it and contains the transport hubs, main services, shopping and nightlife. The harbour has undergone major regeneration including the new Albert Strange Pontoons, a more pedestrian-friendly promenade, street lighting and seating.
This is the color I actually got ("slate blue" on the Timbuk2 website) This is what I thought I was getting: Bagbuilder screenshot (more of a turquoise, much more vivid.)
This is actually closer to what I think of as "slate blue", but it isn't what the website appeared to show, not even within the realm of monitor variation.
I know custom items are sort of a "let the buyer beware" situation, and I'm sure I'll get used to it, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed.

The feature that is common to most Spodosols is the presence of a spodic horizon, in which amorphous mixtures of organic matter and aluminum, with or without iron, have accumulated. The spodic horizon may be destroyed by cultivation, yet spodic materials may still be present. In undisturbed soils there commonly is an overlying eluvial horizon, generally with a gray or light gray color similar to that of uncoated quartz. In some Spodosols this horizon is too thin to be preserved after cultivation, while in others it is very thick. Below the spodic horizon, there may be a fragipan or another sequum that has an argillic horizon.
A few Spodosols have a placic horizon either on or within a spodic horizon or on a fragipan. Some Spodosols have layers thicker than a placic horizon that are cemented by spodic materials and organic matter (ortstein). Most Spodosols have few clay-sized phyllosilicates. The particle-size class is mostly sandy, sandy-skeletal, coarseloamy, loamy-skeletal, or coarse-silty. In a few of the soils, it is fine-loamy. Spodosols are most extensive in areas of cool, humid or perhumid climates. They also formed, however, in hot, humid tropical regions and in warm, humid regions, where they occur mostly in areas of quartz-rich sands that have a fluctuating level of ground water. In many of the latter soils, the silt and sand fractions contain very few weatherable minerals and the albic horizons tend to be thick. Soils with an albic horizon 200 cm or more thick, however, are excluded from Spodosols and are grouped with Entisols.
Some of the very deep spodic horizons may be buried, but it seems likely that others have formed at great depths because the overlying soil materials have very little iron and aluminum that could precipitate the organic carbon. In some areas the source of aluminum may be the ground water. Exclusion of a soil from Spodosols if the albic horizon is very thick is largely pragmatic. The chemical and physical properties of many Spodosols and Andisols are very similar. The definition of spodic materials, however, is based on the concept of organic matter and aluminum, with or without iron, accumulating by illuviation.
The Spodosols in the United States occur mainly in areas of late-Pleistocene or Holocene deposits. They are common in Alaska, in the higher mountains of the West, in the Great Lakes States, in the Northeast, and along the Atlantic coast of both the United States and Canada. They also occur in Northern Europe and northwestern Asia as well as New Zealand and southern Australia. Most are covered with coniferous or, less commonly, hardwood forests if they are not cultivated or grazed. In tropical areas the vegetation may be rain forest, palms, or a savanna that probably is anthropic. The moisture regime of Spodosols is mostly udic, but a few of the soils have a xeric regime. Some have aquic conditions. Spodosols may have any soil temperature regime. Spodosols are naturally infertile, but they can be highly responsive to good management. Under cultivation, the spodic horizon may be biologically destroyed, particularly if lime and nitrogen are applied.

The Kunstberg or Mont des Arts is a historic site in the center of Brussels, Belgium.
The showcase square was created for the Universal Exposition held in Brussels in 1910. It featured a park and a monumental staircase with cascading fountains descending the gentle slope from Place Royale down to Boulevard de l'Empereur/Keizerslaan.
The original square was destroyed during the post-war construction frenzy known as Brusselization; between 1954 and 1965, the square and its surroundings gave way to massive, severely geometric postmodern structures such as the Royal Library of Belgium and the Congress Palace.
The Mont des Arts offers one of Brussels’ finest views. From the vantage point on a hill, the famous tower of the Brussels Town Hall at the Grand Place is clearly visible. On a sunny day, the Koekelberg Basilica and even the Atomium can be seen.
Major tourist attractions are located within walking distance from the Kunstberg: the Musical Instrument Museum, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts, the Royal Palace, and the city’s cathedral.
This is Leo. A foster dog that has been with me a few months. He has some temperament problems, and a touch of crazy. ;) But man can he work sheep!
In this photo he is actually eyeing up Brit for a game of chase. But the look is the same. lol
Is this Italy??? Guess (you have now really a lot of pictures to get the solution! But tomorrow a last hint will follow ...)
This is Luna.
I saw her walking towards me near Liverpool Street Station and thought she looked like a perfect picture for my !00 Strangers Project.
It turned out that she is Spanish and didn't really speak English. Unfortunately my spanish is even worse, so I can't tell you anything more about her.
Thank you for being part of my 100 Strangers Project.

This is the westernmost point of mainland France. Full of history and memories, the lighthouse at Pointe Saint-Mathieu is a symbolic monument for all the sailors of Brittany.
Pointe Saint-Mathieu is a site rich with history, nature and heritage. This is a wonderful place for walks and sightseeing, with the GR34 walking trail nearby, as well as the Iroise Marine Park. There's also an abbey that dates back to the 16th Century, the abbey museum, the lighthouse, the National Memorial to sailors lost at sea, and the semaphore. The panoramic views are a great reward for climbing the 163 steps. This lighthouse has been lit since 1835. It is 37 metres high, and its white light flashes across the ocean every 15 seconds. With a range of 29 miles, it indicates the route that will take you into the narrows of Brest harbour. The lighthouse was electrified in 1937 and fully automated in 1996. The last lighthouse keeper left in 2006. The Saint-Mathieu Lighthouse has been classed as a historical monument since November 2010.
Galway is a city in Ireland. It is in the West Region and the province of Connacht. Galway City Council is the local authority for the city. Galway lies on the River Corrib between Lough Corrib and Galway Bay and is surrounded by County Galway.
The popular song "Galway Girl" or "The Galway Girl" is a song written by Steve Earle and recorded with Irish musician Sharon Shannon, which was featured on Earle's 2000 album Transcendental Blues.
A cover version of the song by Mundy and Shannon reached number one and became the most downloaded song of 2008 in Ireland.
"Galway Girl" tells the semi-autobiographical story of the singer's reaction to a beautiful black haired blue eyed girl he meets in Galway, Ireland. Local references include Salthill and The Long Walk.
Lots of people believe that Galway people have black or very dark hair due to the fact that many spaniards landed there (or were shipwrecked) at the time of the Spanish armada.
Galway is also home to The Spanish Arch which was originally an extension of the city wall from Martin's Tower to the bank of the Corrib, as a measure to protect the city's quays, which were located in the area once known as the Fish Market (now Spanish Parade). It was constructed during the mayoralty of Wylliam Martin in 1584, being called ceann an bhalla (the head of the wall).

New Milton is a market town in south west Hampshire, England. The town has a high street and holds a market every Wednesday. Situated on the edge of the New Forest, the town is about six miles ( 10 km ) west of Lymington town centre and 12 miles ( 19 km ) east of Bournemouth town centre. New Milton dates back to Anglo-Saxon times, and encompasses Old Milton, Barton on Sea, Ashley, Bashley, and Wootton. It is recorded as having a population of around 23,000 in 2001.
The traditional village centre of Milton was just south of the church. Up to the 1960's, moated earthworks were still visible next to the road known as Moat Lane. Excavations of these earthworks in 1956 revealed a series of peasant enclosures and hut remains dating from the 9th to the 12th century, but no evidence of a manorial farmstead was found. The parish church of Milton is dedicated to Mary Magdalene and consists of a chancel with vestry, a nave and a western tower. The medieval church was pulled down and replaced around 1830, although the tower is of an earlier 17th century date. In 1835 a Church of England National School was founded on an island of land near the village green, where children were taught until just after World War I. In 1881, the population of the entire Milton parish was only 1489 people, and Milton was still a small village. The location of the village on the main Christchurch to Lymington road ( now the A 337 ) meant that there were two coaching inns - The Wheatsheaf and The George.
In March 1888 New Milton railway station was opened, which is still in operation today. A new town developed, which expanded rapidly with the coming of the railway and the name New Milton was used for the first time and can originally be traced back to the Post Office that stood opposite the railway station. In 1895, the owner of the Post Office, Emma Newhook, commissioned a sign, which read - New Milton Sub Post Office to differentiate it from the post office in Old Milton. This was officially accepted in 1896, and so the name New Milton caught on. Much of the local farmland has been developed, first in the 1960's for commuter housing and again in the 1970's for small industrial / trade units. There is a mix of housing from cottages on the outskirts to more modern, urban housing in the central area. Milton village subsequently became known as Old Milton, and lies between New Milton and Barton on Sea. There are a few notable architectural points of interest in the local area. However, a distinctive row of Coast Guard Cottages are to be found in Barton Lane, Barton on Sea, which were built at the end of the 19th century by the Government of the day to house armed guards to try to stop the smuggling that was rife at the time. The Barton on Sea and Mudeford coastline was renowned for smuggling with many of the offshore seaways and routes to shore being named after well known local smuggling families. It was in this context that Frederick Marryat, author of The Children of the New Forest, was sent on patrol here as a young naval lieutenant in 1821, to watch over the Christchurch Bay area. Britain's first reinforced concrete bridge was built in 1901 just outside New Milton at Chewton. There was an earlier experiment in building with this material in its un reinforced form at Sway ( Sway Tower ).
New Milton water tower.
Built in 1900 was the Tudor style water tower, which can be found adjacent to the car park in Osborne Road. It has a staircase and is constructed with a turret, slit windows and battlements. It is a striking orange - red colour, was built from locally manufactured bricks.
The German Luftwaffe carried out bombing raids on New Milton on the 23rd August 1940, the 8th August 1942 and on January 22nd 1943.The town's water tower was suggested as the target. During the Second World War, New Milton homed evacuees and was a transit station for soldiers going to the battlefields. It also had an army hospital. It was a favourite for the American airmen who were based at the nearby airfields at Lymington and Holmsley.
The Memorial Centre in Whitefield Road commemorates those who died in the raids, as well as towns people who have died more recently. Bricks can be purchased for inscription and insertion into the wall of the Memorial Room, which stands to the left of the front door and contains mementos saved from the original building, which was destroyed by fire in the 1970’s.
Deodorant comes in three major types: stick, spray, or gel.
None of these is necessarily better than the other, but stick deodorant is by far the most common type.
You’ll be able to find stick deodorants in a wider variety of fragrances, types, and sizes than the other two.

“The future is there looking back at us.” — William Gibson
According to a recent Fast Company article, design has “matured from a largely stylistic endeavor to a field tasked with solving thorny technological and social problems.” Designers are no longer relegated to the downstream position of making things look pretty. We now have a seat at the table. No longer makers, we now aspire to be leaders. Design is everywhere, yet is now called upon to respond to constantly changing technological, demographic, and environmental conditions.
In this space between ubiquity and obsolescence, how can designers develop ways of working and collaborating that respond to our contemporary world? Join us for a monthly series of provocations at MAD where practitioners and critics discuss the changing nature of design and visual culture and its impact on the also changing fields of music, education, fashion, and more.
Technology
Technology plays the dual role of being instrumentalized as both an impartial tool and critical monitor of progress, security, and connection in our society. In this talk we look at how design, programming, and writing work together to express alternative perspectives on startup culture, surveillance, and automation.

This is a photograph from the 6th annual running of the Trim AC 10 Mile Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Trim, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 2nd February 2020 at 12:00. The race attracted over 1,500 finishers which demonstrates again the popularity of this race. Indeed the event shows growth year on year mirroring the growing popularity of the race. The race started on the Trim/Athboy road on the town's ring road and proceeds to take an anti-clockwise loop out towards the village of Dunderry and townland of Kilbride before returning back to the Trim Industrial Estate for the finish. The route is held on quiet country roads with some hills at 3, 6, 8 mile segments. The road is well marked and marshaled and is comfortable able to accommodate the race at its current size.
The weather for this year's race good but there was a significant breezy headwind from around the half way mark until the the finish. Many runners found this particularly difficult.
This photographs is part of a large Flickr photoset of photographs of photographs from the 1 mile mark, 2 mile mark and also from the 500 and 100 meters to go mark. The full Flickr photoset is available at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157712944593478
Waterstops were provided at the 4.5 and 7 mile marks on the course. All access roads were well stewarded. Indeed the majority of the race was run on closed roads. The event was sponsored by Nally's SuperValu, who are based in the heart of Trim, and many other local business establishments. Credit must go to the Trim AC team for their flawless organisation. If the first three years of this year are anything to go on then this race will continue to grow in popularity. Runners from clubs and groups in almost every county in Ireland were represented today. For runners around the North Leinster and Midlands area this 10 mile race serves as a perfect training progress stepping stone to the Bohermeen Half Marathon which will take place in March 2020 and is located only 15 minutes drive from Trim. Again this year, today's race also served as the Meath AAI 10 Mile Road Race Championships.
The 10 Mile Road Race is becoming somewhat an endangered species of the Irish road racing calendar. The popularity of shorter races and in some cases the half marathon sees less 10 mile races being organised. There is also the considerable road management associated with the 10 mile distance. However, today's race in Trim shows that there is still huge appeal in these races. As the Ballycotton 10 Mile slogan used to be "A classic race ... at a classic distance". The Trim 10 Mile is slowing becoming the Ballycotton of North Leinster with the club's offering of this classic distance.

This is a photograph from the first round of the Mullingar Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 7th May 2014 at 20:00. The race follows the roads and trails around Belvedere and is a very testing 5KM route. The race is promoted by Mullingar Harriers for the Pat Finnerty Memorial Cup. Competitors need to run 3 races out of the 4 races in May (any order) to be considered in the overall placing in categories at the conclusion of the league. Over 350 people took part in tonight's event. The weather was positively wintry with a very cold wind in the face of runners for the 1KM and the final KM of the race.

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
This is my third keeper and the best of the batch. Look at the beauty of the ice covered bushes at the top of Tray Mountain, contrasted with the dark mountains that lay in hope of the rising sun that will warm their surfaces, and then the splendid shades of blue on the horizon. No matter how dark and scary our word may appear as we trek down the path God has given us to walk, there is always hope of a new day dawning. A day that brings new hope and new opportunities. While some will errantly look to the sun for hope that grows dark with each passing day, we know that we can look to the Son for a hope that shines eternally in and through our life. When I look at this photo, I see the splendor of God's creation. But I also see a visual example of His eternal hope. A hope filled with his warmth and His love.
From what I recall this is a Schwinn Stingray. There were a handfull of them there all from this group:

This is a honeybee-size Bee Fly (order Bombyliidae, Diptera) on flaky sandstone near the FAA tower on East Camino Cielo road, about 3600 feet. Maybe it's genus Paravilla? Compare this photo by Alice Abelia at BugGuide. The coastal marine layer fog was still in the air, so the white balance is a little funky. It's an impressive fly, with pollen-covered legs and a frosted body. (East Camino Cielo, Santa Ynez Mountains, 25 May 2015)
This is my beautiful kitty Shima. She is like my second child, I love her to death. She's a funny little girl, a little neurotic at times, but it's entertaining!
Like the quote my kitty does have many names...Shima, Shima-monster, Shima-baby...many like those, but you get the point :)

This is a photograph from the second annual running of the Killyon National School 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held at Hill-of-Down, Clonard, Co. Meath, Ireland at 11:00 on Sunday 21st June 2015. The race is held as a fundraiser for the local primary school. Killyon is actually a parish rather than a town or village. With that the race started and finished at the well known Hill-of-Down where the Royal Canal and Dublin Sligo rail line run parallel and cross under the Kinnegad (Westmeath) to Trim (Meath) road. The 5KM route took in a final KM on the beautiful towpath of the Royal canal and finished outside Moran's Pub beside the Canal. Overall the race was very well organised with excellent stewarding and organisation. There was a great spread of refreshments afterwards and participants and families mingled and chatted beside the canal. The race took place on Father's Day and the Summer solstice making the day with the longest duration of day light. The race attracted very good local support from the surrounding areas with local runners, joggers and walkers in attendance.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the start and finish of the race at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157654448993629
Photographs from last year's (2014) race are also on our Flickr account at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157644887755947
