Fascinating country. The Turks as well as the Mongols originated on those very plains.

Check out Karakorum the ancient capital.

Got up at dawn this morning and I watched the fog roll in off the hills, then we went to a local Ger camp and eat some cheese and had some very fresh milk, fantastic.

i hope this doesn’t sound wrong, but it would look really nice in a bathroom, although that bird third from left looks as if it would be looking at you while you are on the can..

I’m up in North East Cambodia planning on getting south to cross into Vietnam. Met up with 3 people with the same idea as me… to walk from Ban Lung to Sen Monorom… its over 100km down dirt tracks leading through dense jungle… we have 4 hammocks, 4 mosquito nets and a positive frame of mind so should make it in 4 days. Have a Khmer friend to escort (and protect!) us, our bags go ahead by pickup, on an actual road, not a dirt track! There are some ethnic minorities along the way in various settlements so we can eat with them and possibly sleep there too, in my hammock of course! Just need to get me some snake repellent. maybe I’ll wear wellies for the trek…

Wedding photos look great. I like the overlapping of photos, or whatever fancy terminology befits the process. The jumping sunbeam, is it Ken? looks great anyway. Thanks for the call too, that was fun

If I get lost in the jungle you’re the only one I’ve told about it back home… my future may be lying in your hands Dave!!

In December I saw one being knock down in New Ross Co Wexford, it was a pity but the building was a risk to the public.

It looks a lot better in B&W than it did in colour, the texture of the wood and stone really comes out in the B&W.

I just bought some studio lights this evening (on eBay, actually the first item I’ve ever purchased from eBay), they are being shipped from China!! Expect to see more studio work in the future, I’m looking forward to doing some portraits, maybe even a self portrait.

I’m going to be working with a model in the near future, she contacted me looking to build up her portfolio, I have some ideas I think are original and I’m looking forward to the opportunity.

The first day we arrived wasn’t very good cause the queue to get in was crazy, it took us about an hour and a half, after that we needed a drink unfortunately we had to queue for tokens to get a drink and that took another hour and a half, we traveled from Ireland - Spain in less time than that.

Highlights of the festival were Modest Mouse and Battles

Not that I’m complaining really, I take it as it comes, as Billy Connelly says

“there is no such thing as bad weather - only the wrong clothes.”

This morning it was pissing rain and I cycled to work in full wet gear and it was fun

It was a beautiful still winters day, very cold but there was no rain and hardly any wind. As you might notice, if you look around the site, I like the calm, solemn, peaceful and simple looking landscape.

I look lots of shots of the Ducks passing across the river, I think this one had the best composition and I like the way the water in the boat remains still and the ripples of the river press against the side of the boat.

I passed the building the other day and the Stella sign is gone so it’s now a bit of history

It is a lovely building and looked great in the photos from the wedding. Unfortunately it was raining when we ceremony finished, and for the rest of the night, so I didn’t get a group shot outside.

The decision on the venue for the wedding was made for us a couple of weeks later when friends of our offered their restaurant in Co Rosscommon. We didn’t have to think about it cause Ger is a great Chef and we know they will really look after us. They have 10 (and by then maybe 16 rooms) above the restaurant so all our accommodation is looked after, we really landed on our feet there.

Roll on Sept 2009.

My new bike is great, my house insurance covered the cost of the other one getting stolen so I paid E100 and got a bike worth about 200 more than my last one, it was no scam the insurance company gets a discount for a supplier. The new bike has disc brakes pretty cool.

Limerick lacks good destinations for cycling around the city but there is a nice wood a few miles from the city so if the weather is good this week i’ll head out there.

Halloween party next weekend so expect some crazy costume soon.

regards Jen.

The new bike is much lovlier anyways.

Beasties were a wee bit disappointing.

If your not Irish or Catholic then you should check out this Wiki page on Knock

I’d often have to travel through Knock on my way from Galway - Sligo, at this point I’d like to paraphrase King Arthur from the Holy Grail

“On second thought, let’s not go to Knock. It is a silly place.”

It was a lovely morning, bright & clear. I would have loved it to be foggy, but you can’t have everything.

I am loving the Animal Collective album Strawberry Jam, I had it on while walking around Venice and every morning I wake up I have a different one of the songs going around me head. They are playing in Dublin on the 5th of November, I can’t wait for the gig, I’m not going to miss it like I missed TV On The Radio & Clap Your Hands Say Yeah when they played Dublin.
