This is a photograph from the 7th annual running of the St. Brigid's AC 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in the town of Oldcastle, Co. Meath Ireland at 20:00 on Wednesday 12th July 2017. The race was held on a beautiful summer's evening with bright sunshine and little or no breeze. The course starts and finishes in the square or diamond in Oldcastle and follows a figure of eight course taking in both the north and south ends of the town. There was over 200 participants. Oldcastle is located in the north-west of county Meath near the border with Cavan. Several regional roads cross in the town's market square making it an important town in the north west Meath area. Caffery's Bar and Restaurant hosted the refreshments after the race. Well done to everyone at the local club who carry on the tradition of excellent athletic club-based road races in County Meath.
Timing and event management was provided by PopupRaces and the results can be found on www.popupraces.ie.
A full set of photographs from the start and finish of the race can be found on our flickr photostream: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157682986980332

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

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

Walter C. Koerner Library
May 11 - August 19, 2012
The Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery is pleased to present the work of Geng Jianyi, Huang Ran, and Zhang Peili as part of the city-wide project, Yellow Signal: New Media in China. Initiated by Centre A: Vancouver International Centre for Contemporary Asian Art, this series of exhibitions and programs is the first comprehensive presentation of contemporary Chinese new media and video art in Canada. It showcases a selection of leading new media works by internationally acclaimed Chinese artists.
This project is compelling for its portrayal of current political circumstances faced by many artists in China. “Yellow Signal is a metaphor for the communal state of ambiguity in Asian countries,” explains Zheng Shengtian, BC-based artist, curator, and internationally recognized scholar and expert on contemporary Chinese art. He further explains, “Yellow Signal is about limitation and possibility, choice and chance, confusion and self-confidence. Feelings that many Asian artists experience, but that artists everywhere may also relate to in their creative practice.”
Huang Ran
This exhibition features a video by Huang Ran titled Blithe Tragedy (2010), a work that questions the relationship between beauty and horror and the power of images. The video presents scenes of intense struggle, emotion, and violence. At the same time, the attention to detail in the costumes, the slowly tracked footage, and the editing of the scenes create highly aesthetic, beautiful imagery that draw the viewer into complex, open-ended narratives. The viewer is prompted to wonder about the power of the visual, despite its obvious fantastical or beautiful elements, to obscure the underlying realities of the narratives and of contemporary society.
Huang Ran (b. 1982) is one of the most interesting young artists to emerge in China. Since graduating from Goldsmiths College, University of London (2007), he has participated in many international group and solo exhibitions. In 2011, Huang received the Credit Suisse Today Art Award from the Today Art Museum in Beijing. Huang Ran lives and works in London and Beijing.
Geng Jianyi
Presented at the Belkin Art Gallery and Walter C. Koerner Library, Excessive Transition (2008) by Geng Jianyi is a series of large and small black-and-white photographs of everyday objects from the artist’s life. Geng uses techniques to create semi-transparent, abstract, and eerie subtle effects that have been equated with ideas about the withdrawal of the individual. He also employs methods such as mark-making and frottage to manipulate the idea of what is evidenced in photographs. Though Geng’s work is not easily defined, Excessive Transition follows his concerns of self-effacement and the dissolution and disappearance of identity in a culture that is undergoing change.
Geng Jianyi (b. 1962) is a foundational figure in contemporary Chinese art and was part of the artistic collective known as Chi She (Pool Association) and a major participant in the ’85 New Wave Movement. Using a wide range of media, his work is often known for its stark simplicity and concerns about personal identity and individuality in the context of a larger collective.
Zhang Peili
Zhang Peili’s large-scale, multimedia installation A Gust of Wind (2008) is a meditation on the unpredictable forces that threaten ideas of the stability of middle-class domestic life. We see a living room in ruin and the process of its destruction is seen from multiple perspectives on large video screens. It starts with a curtain that flutters in a breeze that steadily swells into a crescendo and tears apart the interior, toppling the shelves and upending the furniture until eventually the roof collapses. A Gust of Wind brings up ideas about the life cycle of disaster and renewal and the fickle nature of economic progress.
Considered the most important video artist in China, Zhang Peili (b. 1957) was a member of the ’85 New Wave Movement and his work has been concerned with prompting emotional responses from the viewer as a way to generate many interpretations. He is known for the use of lengthy stationary shots that focus on acts that are seemingly devoid of any particular significance and on repetitive human gestures that are often taken for granted. Recently, Zhang’s interest has been to distort the messages of war and propaganda film by editing found footage of dying communist heroes and celebration ceremonies.
