The BHAA K-Club 10KM Road Race and Fun Run 2013 was held at the K-Club Golf and Hotel Resort, Straffan, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Saturday 20th of April 2013 at 11:00. This was a superbly organised road race which absolutely stood up to it's very high standards set on the previous two years. The race started and finished near the Palmer Smurfiff Course Club House on the Golf Course. Parking was provided nearby and a fantastic spread of goodies were served afterwards. The race took a route out on the country roads on the edge of the resort with a loop of 3km ran twice before returning back to the finish. This collection of photographs are from both the start and the finish of the race. We have photographs from the winner crossing the line until about one hour five minutes on the timing clock. This race has grown year on year and at this year's showing will continue to sell out for years to come. Well done to everyone involved. This is a credit to volunteered athletics and road racing events in Ireland.

I ran the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set!
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 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.
If you want to contribute something for these images?
We do not charge for these images. We take these photographs as our contribution to the running community in Ireland. If you feel that the image(s) you request are good enough that you would ordinarily pay for their purchase we would suggest that you can provide a donation to any of the great charities in Ireland who do work for Cancer Care or Cancer Research in Ireland.
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.
One of 200 hens from a small egg farm. The farmer used a metal leg band for identification purposes. As the hens grew, the leg band did not. The farmer will not be using these again.
The hens are part of Animal Place's Rescue Ranch program in which farmed animals come to the sanctuary, are rehabilitated, and then placed into new homes.
After treatment, these hens will go onto new, loving homes.
I don't know if the rails that remain in the High Line are in their original alignment or if they've been artfully rearranged.
This was an HP supercell embedded in a line of storms late evening on May 28 in northwest Texas. The structure was more pronounced in the leadup to this shot (as we were moving toward it in low light), but some of the striated characteristics are still visible here. The storm was pretty outflow dominant but showed a period of spiked rotation near sunset -- deep in the rain core and not something we wanted to venture into.

It was a day to recover from yesterday's excesses. After driving the boys to the airport, the weather got worse and worse, but I managed to get out for a walk for an hour. I saw this piece of crockery embedded in the roots of a blown down tree. I don't know how it got there and there was only one other piece (also embedded) nearby. Made me wonder what the story was here.

The Fuji Neopan 1600 film emulation in VSCO Film 02 is really nice. I normally don't care much for B&W photos, but sometimes the color isn't what you're looking for.

Coventry city centre 2021.
Newly planted areas have strange WW2 bomb looking objects in them (I think they might be lighting). I find the shape at odds with the modern history of Coventry.
On the night of 14 November 1940, 515 German planes set out to destroy the major manufacturing city of Coventry, and the results were devastating.
Four thousand homes, three quarters of city-centre buildings and two-thirds of industrial buildings were destroyed; 568 civilians were killed. The psychological reaction was just as stark: hysteria, panicking, acute aphasia, looting. ‘The city [was] suffering from a collective nervous breakdown’.
The Germans had not only intended the raid as a strategic one but as a deliberately psychological one, too, designed to break the will of the British people. The bombing was considered such a triumph that the Germans coined the word koventrieren – ‘to coventrate’, to devastate by aerial force.
An estimated 568 people were killed in the raid (the exact figure was never precisely confirmed), with another 863 badly injured and 393 sustaining lesser injuries.
Today the City of Coventry is twinned with the German City of Dresden.
Preschool students discuss reading materials while enjoying their choice of seating during reading time.
How often is something exactly what it purports to be? Not an easy question to answer, but Glenwood Community School District has nailed it by embracing, embedding, and implementing Specially Designed Instruction into their preschool curriculum. Students are receiving exactly what the name implies, Specially Designed Instruction (SDI), aimed at meeting the educational needs of each individual student.
Some characteristics of Preschool SDI instruction include intentionality, abundant visuals, the amount of instruction, peer mediated interventions, and peer prompting. Successful SDI requires a collaborative, team approach for problem solving. A host of educational staff get together at least once a month, to discuss student progress based on the data recorded daily by the preschool teacher. They look to see if a goal is being worked on or if an instructional change is needed.
All five preschool teachers and classrooms in the district are on board with integration and delivery of SDI within the school day. All are part of a usability grant in various stages of execution (years one through four). Using specific criteria, early childhood consultants at Area Education Agencies (AEAs) recommended the best sites for grant funds to support the SDI work and provide professional development based on teacher feedback.
