That's a nice whipped shot. :D

:p ;) :)

Good castle also.
Save some room for yourself? :eek:

Hey Marie, I think the second shot would have looked good with just the word 'whipped'....but then I have a warped sense of humour. The fact that you have such nostalgic buildings closeby, I am envious, good shotz!

I have one too (re warped)http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

the picture needed to be cropped anyway
but I thought , 'better not', it would make the man look not so good
(his lifestyle anyway )


thanks

thanks Sandy


the man's face was a bit dark in the shot (the sign was very white )
I added grain to the picture
( where's the logic in that I hear you say)http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif

lovely man
and the ice cream was delicious

thanks Dan

just showing these two shots, as I think I named the wrong castle http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_confused.gif
( they are almost together )
probably they were part of each other... years ago
(King John's)

these scenes are taken from the roadway, almost beside the picture above
and very close to the shot of the boat in another post

thanks again

these are the mourne mountains: 'sweeping down to the sea '
(like in the song)

I would really love to visit Ireland again! Especially now that I have camera abilities!

[mrclark321]

Thanks for the extra pics Marie..they look very nice! I think I need to start slowing down on all my purchases and start saving to see all these beautiful place in the world. My kids are 10 and 6 and they grow up too fast!!!!

Thanks for the great photos :) :)
Dan

[marie]

thank you very much Jporter and Dan
it's difficult to do other things when bringing up kids.
why I always encourage young people to see and experience the world a bit before they get married, if at all possible

Lovely Marie. I don't know when I'll travel your direction but I am planning on it sometime in the next few years. Your photos have increased my longing to see lovely Ireland..........

[D4VE]

Ha ha, James looks like a friendly Ice cream man, I bet the kids love the guy.
Nice shots, Ireland is looking picturesque as usual :)

I did have a shot of James without the whole door of the cabin showing http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif

he came out a bit clearer
a lot of elderly people were around on a day trip
I met them further up in the village, all licking icecream coneshttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif
and I asked them were the cones nice ?
they loved them. and this is who they bought them off.

I got one later
