Dogpatch Labs in partnership with Ulster Bank invited me to the Press Launch of The Vaults.
The Vaults is a state-of-the-art dedicated event space in the historic 200 year old former wine and whiskey storehouse beneath Dogpatch Labs, which is set to become a focal point for Ireland’s technology community. The Vaults will comprise flexible workshop and events space, large and small meeting rooms and a bar.
Special guests Minister Simon Harris TD and Neville Isdell former CEO the Coca Cola Company spoke, and we got the chance to meet with the companies based in Dogpatch Labs over breakfast and coffee.
A location like no other building in Dublin, the chq building overlooks the River Liffey and George’s Dock, the site which was to be home to Ireland’s National Theater, the Abbey. The chq building is a grade one listed building situated within the heart of the Ireland's bustling International Financial Services Centre (IFSC) in the Docklands. Formerly known as Stack A, it was built in 1820 as a wine and tobacco warehouse. The then Stack A was made famous when it hosted the Crimean War Banquet in 1856 celebrating the return of 3,000 Irish soldiers. The building has been magnificently restored and enhanced.

“THE LANDMARK CHQ Building in the heart of the IFSC has been sold by the Dublin Docklands Development Authority (DDDA) for just over €10 million. The property was bought by former Coca-Cola Company CEO Neville Isdell, who says that the initial plan is to make improvements to the building before deciding on its long-time use”

Seven images stacked in Helicon to get this shot of an Eastern Bumble bee (Bombus impatiens). The cold weather helped a lot since the bee wasn't moving much at all. Not sure how you'd do this with live insects otherwise. Andover, NJ

Lots of fun to create. We found the perfect place to get a full photo of this king size quilt - from the deck of the recipient's new house. It is always a challenge to hold a large quilt up high enough for a photo so was gad to find the solution!
I spotted this stack of chairs in a restaurant in Parkhurst, Johannesburg, outside of operating hours, which meant shooting through the window. A different restaurant now occupies the premises. I've been searching for a specific photograph (not this one) and have been encountering all sorts of forgotten shots.
South Stack is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses, South Stack Lighthouse. It has a height of 41 metres (135 feet). It has a maximum area of 7 acres.
Until 1828 when an iron suspension bridge was built, the only means of crossing the deep water channel on to the island was in a basket which was suspended on a hemp cable. The suspension bridge was replaced in 1964, but by 1983 the bridge had to be closed to the public, due to safety reasons. A new aluminium bridge was built and the lighthouse was reopened for public visits in 1997. Thousands of people flock to the lighthouse every year, thanks to the continued public transport service from Holyhead's town centre.
There are over 400 stone steps down to the footbridge (and not, as local legend suggests, 365), and the descent and ascent provide an opportunity to see some of the 4,000 nesting birds that line the cliffs during the breeding season. The cliffs are part of the RSPB South Stack Cliffs bird reserve, based at Elin's Tower.
The Anglesey Coastal Path passes South Stack, as does the Cybi Circular Walk. The latter has long and short variants; the short walk is 4 miles long and takes around two hours to complete. Travelling from the Breakwater Country Park, other sites along the way are the North Stack Fog Signal station, Caer y Tŵr, Holyhead Mountain and Tŷ Mawr Hut Circles.
I'm testing focus stacking for the first time. I'm using Zerene Stacker (zerenesystems.com/cms/stacker) as it seems to be the only one available for Linux. It's really easy to use.
This one uses 9 images taken with Nikkor 55/3.5 at f/5.6.

mmmmm, yummy! fabric stack for the quilt you can see partially constructed behind it. Quilt is the 9 Patch Trellis quilt by Oh Fransson!
My brother and I headed off to South Stack last night, we were hoping to stay there and get some star trails. But by the time we arrived it was far too cloudy and it just got worse as we waited.
I used HDR on this one as getting the whole tonal range from a single exposure was very tough as the cliffs were pretty dark relative to the sky. Unfortunately it's not come out as I wanted, with some blown out highlights in the sea around the lighthouse, which really shouldn't be happening with HDR, clearly I need more practice. Also I think there's just a little too much going on in the image, it's a bit too busy if you get me. WHen I got there, I realised that the 10-20 wasn't going to do the job, so will have to make sure i take another lens next time too.
