As you can see in the video it is not that easy to tell them apart.

If you are looking for an island with great white sand beaches, clear water swimming and a little adventure, Sharp island is for you. Just a short trip from Sai Kung pier, this is a great getaway both for sun seekers and hikers – even better if you want both.

This is one of a series of photographs taken by Cecil Sharp (or his photographer) on the occasion of Sharp's visit to Winster on 4 July 1908.
Sharp's visit has been well documented elsewhere (not on this site) and some of these photographs have been published as modern postcards. Examples of these cards are included in this Winster Morris Dancers Set.

My first shot with the 135L lens at this match happened to be a cracker-very sharp considering it was taken at f2.8 and he was moving.
Of course it has its limitations but it just means you have to pick your shots more and not rely on the zoom so much. Oh and its ridiculously sharp

Sharp pins. Some of the tops are melting from me ironing over them when sewing.
Kei has many faces : P This is our cheapo chef`s knife. Think it cost 10 bucks. It needs regular sharpening!
Speaking of sharp...check out that that eyeball!
A small pond of water down athirapalli falls. I was attracted by the sharp cuts in the rocks and some subtle reflections. Makes a good wallpaper.

Not much going on out there these days, but if you persevere something interesting always turns up. This little hawk surprised me by perching very close to me on a fence rail, and when he flew off, I really wasn't expecting him to land in the field almost as close as when he was perched.
My first computer! A very very rare bit of personal computing history. My parents bought it when I was about 3 or 4.
Green and black screen, tape cassette loading, buzzer sounds (beep beep)... It operated in machine code when you switch it on so you had to load BASIC before you could load any programs. (BASIC cassette tape was in the player when I dug it out)

Life Bird #59
I was standing in my living room looking out my front window when I saw a large bird out of the corner of my eye, swoop down heading to what I thought was my bird feeder but landed on some fence sections we still had in the yard from out holiday decorations. I thought it was one of the scub jays but to my surprise it was this hawk. I've had other hawks land on my side fence but wasn't able to get a shot. I stood there just watching him for a little while, when I heard my husband come in from the back yard I told him to walk over slowly so he could see him before he flew away. I decided to get my camera out of the back room but figured I wouldn't be able to get a shot b/c I would have to raise the blind and doing so would scare him away but as you can see I was able to get it raised enough. He stayed there for awhile after I got the shot but the neighbor came over to work on the house and scared him away..I believe they hang around my house b/c of all the sparrows and other small birds that come to my feeder. I think it great that I don't have to go out looking for these birds, they just come to me...lol I put it up for ID b/c I wasn't sure if it was a Cooper's or Sharp-Shinned Hawk..I was leaning more towards the Sharp-Shinned and I was correct..I wish it was a better shot but I'm happy with it
**As always I appreciate all your comments…Thank You!!**

Gold watch, diamond ring,
I ain't missin' not a single thing.
Cufflinks, stick pin,
When I step out I'm gonna do you in.
They come runnin' just as fast as they can

This adult Sharp-shinned Hawk made a kill in my yard today and then flew under my neighbor's outdoor playhouse to dine

This is a photograph from the 41st Rennicks Cup and 38th Father Delany Cup 5 Mile Road Race and 5KM Fun Run organised by Bohermeen AC and held at Bohermeen AC, Ardbracan, Navan, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 8th of September 2013 at 12:00. This is great local club support as the race forms part of the Meath Road Race League.
Electronic timing and event management was provided by Precision Timing [www.precisiontiming.net].
The wonderful atmosphere, the great racing and participation, the work by the club, Meath Athletics, and the local community are a great tribute to the resilience and long tradition of this race. Congratulations to everyone involved. Everything that is good about grassroots athletics and running in Ireland is always on show in Bohermeen.
Bohermeen AC can rightly claim to be one of the most active accredited race organisers in Ireland. In the Spring they host their Spring Half Marathon (see www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157632906920970/), in the summer they host their Patrick Bell 5KM Road Race (see here www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157634010225199/), with proceedings finishing in the early Autumn with the Rennicks Cup. Astonishingly over their 3 race series this year Bohermeen AC have had a total of almost 1,500 participants. These numbers speak for themselves with the proceeds of these races going directly back into the athletics club and grass-roots athletics in the county.
This is photograph is part of a largest set of photographs from the start and the end of the race which are organised into the following Flickr set [http://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157635427779978/].

Overall Race Summary
Participants: Approximately 150 people took part in the 5 mile event. The 5KM had many families involved.
Weather: The weather was slightly mixed. There was a cool breeze seemingly on the face of runners for many parts of the left handed course. There was a very light sure during the early part of the race whilst later in the race there were some heavier showers.
Course: The race starts just west of the Bohermeen Athletics Track and Club House (about 500 meters from the finish line) and proceeds down the straight road (Newline) passing the club house. The race takes runners over the M3 motorway and the a very sharp left turn uphill at Arbraccan brings the runners heading northwards to another left turn and back up a rise over the M3 motorway again. For the remainder of the race the route is flat with no hills or drags. The section between miles 3 and 4 are sheltered by high hedgerows and passes Durhamstown Castle one of the oldest lived in houses in Ireland. The final mile brings runners into Bohermeen village with the school and church to their left. The race then takes its final left turn back onto the straight newline road where runners pass the start of the race and the final 400 meters which brings runners onto the gravel track and across the finish line.

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 www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
