201 - 5 dart finish

Did this on my lunch, trebble 18, 20, 20, trebble 19 and bull finish. It’s a record in work. I am now the undisputed champion.

Tulip problem

I have a problem shooting the underneath of tulips. If anyone comes across a group I can attend for my problem please let me know. I was supposed to go to photo fest but due to a hangover (thanks Grace and the other culchies) I gave it a miss and went to the botanics instead to see the tulips. It was a very overcast rainy day. There was a break in the rain for a while and I did manage to shoot some of the tulips that decided to flower early despite the cold weather. There was nice little droplets on them too :). I’m a sucker for water droplets. P.S look no use of the black slider and hardly any vignette either..

The wedding

I shot my first wedding today. Started at about 12pm in the bride’s house and ended up after the first few ceili dances. It was tougher than I could have ever imagined. The day totally flew because I was so busy. I did have help on the group shots and thank God I did. The other photog that was there for a few hours knew how to organise people for the shots. I had to put my fears away for the everyone group shot and shout down to people to move them in at the sides and also to tell them to look at me while I took the shot. I’ve never had to organise that many people before in my life. The weather wasn’t very kind to me for the day and we only had an hour at about 4pm to take some outdoors shots. I did get some shots I am happy with and here they are…
