Alone on the Riverwalk for these few minutes a woman makes her way for a lunchtime run. It's not freezing outside, but by no means warm. This level of dedication to running amazes me.
January 1st 2014
Dedication (noun): wholehearted commitment to a particular course of thought or action.
Ah, another year, and with that a new wave of New Year's resolutions that probably won't last over a month. (Can you tell I'm not too fond of waiting until the New Year to change?) I just don't get it... If you're really devoted to making a change to better yourself, why wait? It seems pointless to me. With that being said, last year I decided to embark on a journey to lead a healthier lifestyle, and although I'm still well on my way, I honestly couldn't feel better and just seeing progress gives me one of the greatest feelings imaginable.
2013 was a big year for me and, dare I say it, the best and most eventful year of my life thus far. "There’s been a hundred lows but there has been a million highs" and I can't help but feel proud of who I've become and confident that I'm still making progress towards becoming a better person.
I don't know what 2014 has in store for me, but so far it seems nothing but promising. I'm surrounded by love and positivity and I don't know anything greater than that at the end of the day. But I'm ready for more greatness that awaits me this year.
(p.s If ever I were to make a New Year's Resolution, it would be to actually finish this project 365 thing. Third time's the charm, right?)
Adoption Requires Dedication to Righteousness
Romans 8:15; Galatians 4:5; Ephesians 1:5
If the Lord adopts us for his sons on the condition that our life be a representation of Christ the bond of our adoption, then unless we dedicate and devote ourselves to righteousness we not only, with the utmost treachery, revolt from our Creator, but also renounce the Savior himself.
Elliot Ritzema, 300 Quotations for Preachers from the Reformation (Pastorum Series; Bellingham, WA: Lexham Press, 2013).
I dedicate this picture to my plucky fish and aquarium model, Lippy, who passed away about a week ago. He was the last one left in the aquarium and I just found him being sucked into the filter one morning. He was a good pet and we had a good 7 years together. I hope you're happy up there in fishy heaven swimming to your heart's content. I will miss you!

One of my dearest contacts is Geza Singer. Tom was lucky enough to buy his Oly XZ-1 when he was in London about 2 weeks ago and they met. My loss that I was not there. I admire Geza's work tremendously and he continues to inspire me, encourage me and make me look at things from new perspectives. I have learnt a lot about 'schmocus' from him (cannot do it like he does.......). Okay so here's a summer schmocus with grasses, comfrey and beans.
Geza is here

have a good Thursday everyone. Our new nanny has been beaten up by her brother so I am off to the doctor with her now.
Update on Amanda: she has been to see the doctor who took particulars, measured bruises and will submit a report to the police when Amanda lays a charge. The tenderness and kindness of this medical practitioner is in stark contrast to the brother's violent actions this morning.
There's something quite serene about waking up before the sun and taking in the day. No one else is awake, the world is still quiet... It's not the easiest thing to do. It takes a certain level of dedication. Dedication to catch the perfect wave. Dedication to get the perfect shot. Dedication that pays off in the end.

You have to look Nice Large or even Original is better to appreciate the detail.
For my lovely and mad friend Hulapooper. I don't think flickr would be the same without her. She's friendly and fun and always disappearing just like the beautiful Butterflies that visit us in the 'Summer' months.
I've never had so many invites to different groups, but that's not what's important. It's her vibrancy, laughter and her comical way of sporadicly turning up when you least expect it that's lovely and amusing. Oh I forgot talent ;) Thank you Denise for making flickr such fun and a joy to be part of.
I just loved the bokeh Peacock Butterfly in this image even though the colours aren't so good.
I took part in a fantastic shoot organised by Milly Colley aka millypix for Lostboys yesterday. It was great fun assisting Milly. She went above and beyond the cal of duty in this one lying in a bed of nettles to get the angle. That's dedication. Please check out her stream by clicking on the link opposite

Nobody sees a flower - really - it is so small it takes time - we haven't time - and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time.

I felt this was quite symbolic and a photo opportunity that I had to capture (I believe I was the only one who did)
This farmer didn't stop working throughout the whole show & not one time did I see him look up. He had a job for the day and just got on with it.
To me it was the dedication of the farmer combined with the dedication of the enthusiasts that brought this (the only remaining flying Vulcan) back from the dead.

Taken at an archery event on the University of Limerick campus recently. This competitor was undeterred by the pouring rain. His concentration never wavered.

My friend, Alice, passed today to be with our Lord. She was my very best friend's mother and was like a second mother to me. She is no longer suffering and now is at peace. She loved nature and was thrilled that I took up nature photography and encouraged me all the way. Alice, you will always be with us. My love goes to Gloria, Edmund, Jackie and Cecil.
