Equipment: Nikon D70, Vivitar 283 on camera, and snooted to trigger optical slaved remote. Sunpak 433D off camera.
The D70 has an integrated flash, but for some reason, it wasn't triggering my optical slave correctly, and the flashs were out of sync. Putting the Vivitar up there fixed the problem.

This is a photograph from the second running of the newly situated Irish 3/4 Marathon (formerly the Athlone 3/4) which was held in Longwood, Enfield, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 8th of October 2017 at 10:00. The event is positioned perfectly in the calendar as a key training race before the Dublin City Marathon at the end of the month. This year was the second year that the event was held in Longwood, Co. Meath which is now well known for its hosting of the Longwood 10KM/5KM annual races and a host venue for East of Ireland Marathon series marathons on a bi-annual basis. The race started and finished at Longwood GAA club just outside the village of Longwood. It followed an anti-clockwise course around the beautiful picturesque countryside of south Meath. The course went through the townlands of Longwood, Castlerickard, Killyon, Hill-of-Down, Anneville and Ashfield Clonard, Blackshare, Stoneyford and back to Longwood. The river Boyne and Blackwater were crossed as was the Royal Canal and the Dublin-Sligo Railway line at Hill-of-Down. Overall this was a very different course to the previous years in Athlone. The overall elevation of the course works out at 3/4 of the total elevation of the Dublin Marathon course. What most stood out about today's race was the course and how the countryside around it looked on a beautiful almost perfect Autumn morning. There was a large local effort with stewarding and many local people watched from their gardens as the race passed by. The organisation of the race was first class with every detail taken care of from the start until the finish. There was some rain showers from about 13:00 onwards but these soon passed.
There is a large set of photographs from today's race - taken at the start in Longwood village and the 25KM mark outside near our home.

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.

The riders from the T70s close assault the 88 position and easily defeat the luftwaffe gunners. At this point we decided to call it. There was no way that the Junkers were going to get out of there with Soviet tanks running amok. The Russian players got lucky with their deployment on the table-not too far off and pretty coordinated. The Germans had some miscues with their deployment that cost them some commanders getting units into action. I had thought about giving the Germans a couple of Marders since there were some in the area earlier, but thought there was just too much firepower already out there. Overall, I think this would've worked better on a bigger table-8X6. I did enjoy getting some new players involved into the TFL universe.
I positioned myself as close to dead-center at the main crossing where the nave, transepts and apse meet and pointed straight up. You can see part of the choir screen, or pulpitum, at the center-bottom. Look closely at the square beneath the tower and at about two o'clock you can see the circular doorway through which the tower bells are hoisted into place.

Due to our northern geographic position, when summer comes to Denmark, we are so unfortunate in the morning and the evenings, to have the sun set at a very low angle of the horizon to much annoyance of the danes.
Unfortunately wearing sunglasses is in strict conflict with several laws of Jante, forcing danes to squint and press their eyes together being the main cause to wrinkles among our people.
Scientists soon found that people living in the outlawed enclave Christiania, not only had far less wrinkles than your average society joe, but further more was found to be profoundly more happy and healthy in soul as well as in spirit. Further studies showed that the immediate effects of smoking joints make your eyes into narrow cracks, which in a relaxed soothing manner prevent them straining into wrinkles and further more, effectively counter the scorching effects of immediate sun blindness when the sun is low in the sky.
This is a photograph from a set of photographs taken at the second running of the Castletown-Finea/Coole/Whitehall GFC 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Finea, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday August 21st 2013 at 19:30. The race was unique in the fact that it provided participants to run in two counties (Westmeath and Cavan) and two provinces (Ulster and Leinster) in Ireland during the same race. The race started on the Cavan side of the famous bridge of Finea and finished on the banks of the river. Finea is a beautiful Irish village which is well known for its scenery and it's position in the beautiful landscape of North Westmeath amongst the lakes and hills. The area attracts tourists for fishing and game shooting every year.
The race was very well organised with excellent stewarding and support and great community involvement. Well done to everyone involved. This race has the ability to grow in strength each year.

Overall Race Summary
Participants: There was about 150 participants of runners, joggers, and walkers.
Weather: There was mild August evening. There was a tail wind supporting the runners for the first 3Km but this turned into a strong head-wind for the final 2km of the race.
Course: The race starts and finishes at either side of the Bridge of Finea. The Bridge End Bar was the start where the race went out 400m on the Granard road and runners turned around at cone and headed back into Co. Westmeath over the bridge and the 1km mark. Following the Castlepollard Road the race took at left at the 2km and followed a loop back past the National School and back into Finea village again for a finish down on the banks of the River Inny. The course was a tough undulating course but fair. Any short hills were balanced out by adequate down-hill the other side. The stewards provided excellent traffic management on what is a busy section of road between the 1st KM and the final KM and the finish.
Location Map: Start/finish and registration took place at the Bridge (see Google StreetView Image here goo.gl/maps/1Zqek)
Refreshments: There was a very impressive selection of refreshments including sandwiches and home-made breads in the Bridge End Bar afterwards.

History
© northeast Advertising/Westermann
Located in the middle of the western wine district, is Hollabrunn the transportation hub and capital of this region. The city's importance lies in its administration function and in its position as school location. The main community of Hollabrunn is divided into 22 cadastral municipalities. Hollabrunn is twinned with the cities of Jinhua in China, Kyjov in the Czech Republic and Holič in Slovakia.
The settlement of the Hollabrunner area dates back to the early Neolithic period, in the locality itself have been found traces of a linear ceramic settlement (Linear band Pottery culture). A double grave with rich offerings in Hollabrunner reed "In lower Satzen" could be associated with the Bronze Age. At the mill "Old Hofmühle" in Hollabrunn settlement remains of the Hallstatt period have been located.
Hollabrunn probably originated from a double settlement founded by the Bavarian Counts of Cham-Vohburg in North-South location in the 11th century with separate truce. The first documentary mention of the evolving street village on the old trade route Znojmo-Vienna took place in 1135 under the designation "Holerbrunnen (elderberry well)". From the second half of the 13th century, the respective write variant of the name Hollabrunn in the historical sources also is complemented by "superior", "maior" or "upper". Since 1927, the city on the basis of a decision of the Lower Austrian Landtag (Diet) is named Hollabrunn.
1908 Hollabrunn was elevated to the status of town, its tradition as a market goes back to the 14th century, in a document from 1377 Hollabrunn is first described as a market. Towards the end of the 14th century Hollabrunn still belonged to the domain of the Lords of Sun Mountain (Sonnberg), from about 1394/1400 to that of the lords of Maissau. In the following period the ownership changed frequently, in 1606, finally, Hollabrunn became a separate dominion, fell in 1662 into the possession of the Dietrichstein and was acquired in 1864 together with the market Hollabrunn by Erwin count of Schönborn-Buchheim.
The economic development of Hollabrunn is to be seen in direct connection with its traffic-convenient location along the trade route between Vienna and Moravia. Since the 14th century, in Hollabrunn is regularly held market, fairs, horse, wood, grain and livestock markets established in the course of time. During the last decades, Hollabrunn positioned itself as regionally important trade fair location.
Viniculture and wine trade until the 19th century formed the main industry of Hollabrunner population. East and west of the town extended an extensive wine region, three cellar lanes emerged. Opposite the wine industry, the agriculture, especially the cultivation of cereals and sugar beet, in the 19th century was formative for Hollabrunn, but lost massively during the 20th century in importance. Although currently essential parts of the Hollabrunner municipality are utilized agriculturally and forestally, is the management, however, for the main carried out from the neighboring communities.
The religious life of Hollabrunn in the course of centuries was also determined by the Protestantism and the large Jewish community. End of the 16th century, most of the population of Hollabrunn had already turned to the Protestant doctrine. The attempt of a recatholicization by the Bishop of Vienna, Melchior Khlesl, failed yet in 1605, but was operated successfully after 1655 by Pastor John Reisch, with the support of Capuchins, who had been resident in the locality since 1665. The Jewish cemetery on the outskirts of Hollabrunn is reminiscent of the Jewish tradition of the lieu. Since the 17th century, Jews lived in Hollabrunn, 1901, constituted the Jewish Community Hollabrunn and existed until the year 1938.
In Town Museum "Old Hofmühle" in Hollabrunn in a permanent exhibition colonization and cultural emerging of the district Hollabrunn are documented. Next to the museum building, a mansion from the 16th century, are among the city's attractions in particular the parish church of St. Ulrich, the former Capuchin monastery, the building of the former Archbishop's Seminary and the Art Nouveau houses along the in the 90's remodeled main square.

A horse became stranded in a horsebox which ended up in a precarious position after the bed of the recovery truck failed. The Hi-ab crane on the Heavy Rescue Unit was used to stabilise the horse box which was eventually brought down to road level so the horse could be unloaded and transferred to a second horse box.

Southern Railway coal fired steam locomotive # 4501, Ms class Baldwin 2-8-2 Mikado, showing a partial internal cab view of engineer's position while spotted in the Simpson Railroad Yard at Jacksonville, Florida, early 1970's. In this view you can see the brake controls, the throttle, plus the valve gear quadrant. A crewman is attending the locomotive as it is prepared overnight for the next day's operation on a railfan excursion trip from Jacksonville, Florida to Valdosta, Georgia and return the same day.
A double line of horses moving along a muddy road, past a destroyed German concrete position. The ground around the position is also muddy, and the remains of a duckboard path traversing the mud can clearly be seen. All of the horses have artillery packs strapped to their sides.
This photograph combined with the language of the original caption is a good example of the type of material used by the Government and Military as propaganda. In particular, the words 'smashed' and 'wonderful' helped to reinforce the idea or belief that the British Forces were somehow invincible.

An attack by French troops on 6 -7 November was unsuccessful and it was not until the Battle of Messines on 7 June 1917 that it was retaken by the New Zealand Division. On 10-11 April 1918, the village fell into German hands once more after a stubborn defence by the South African Brigade, but was retaken for the last time on 28-29 September 1918.
The MESSINES RIDGE (NEW ZEALAND) MEMORIAL stands within Messines Ridge British Cemetery and commemorates over 800 soldiers of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force who died in or near Messines in 1917 and 1918 and who have no known grave.
This is one of seven memorials in France and Belgium to those New Zealand soldiers who died on the Western Front and whose graves are not known. The memorials are all in cemeteries chosen as appropriate to the fighting in which the men died.
