New design and renewed effort

This site has gone untended for far too long, so I’ve decided to update everything and integrate my website and blog into one single site. I’m not just starting from here chronologically, as I’m planning to ‘backfill’ some news/photos from before today’s date.

I’m happy with the result now, but any thoughts opinions would be (reasonably) graciously received.

Disneyland Paris

We had a wonderful time at Disneyland Paris. As expected Darcey loved ‘It’s a small world’ and Scarlett loved the Aerosmith rollercoaster.
The only downside was the sheer quantity of French people prepared to elbow, shove and knock you to gain a place in the queue - even resorting to sending their kids ahead then looking surprised when you don’t let them through to join them. Anyway, here’s my fave shot of MM from the trip.

Love this shot of Mum and Dad playing SuperMario Kart on the Wii.

Kids eh ?

I can’t remember if anyone else got a turn that day.

They’ve just started knocking down a building near my office. Shot this for a competition with a theme of ‘Chaos’

I have a new newphew.  Malachy Heneghan is here and doing well.

Spark plug

Spark Plug

Shot for a specific contest with the theme of ‘Electric’. Although it didn’t do so well in the contest, I was pleased with the end result.
If you’re wondered how it was done - a friend had installed some mad device in his exhaust to make foot long flames shoot out of it. It’s sparked by some electronic device attached to a spark plug. He removed it and we clamped it so it kept still, then hit the ignition which makes it spark repeatedly.

Braunston Church

Braunston Church

Shot at around 9.30pm in Braunston, Northamptonshire. There was quite a few to choose from, including lighter ones (with longer exposure) which showed the detail of the foreground. However, this one just looked more striking.
