Dublin Night Photowalk
Hey guys,
Just a quick update on tomorrow’s photowalk (In Short). The plan is to have a nice stroll around Dublin’s city centre at night. Get some lovely shots and have a bit of banter. This is open to anybody and everybody with an interest in photography. Whether you’re a veteran pro or only had your camera a week, everybody’s welcome!!
A few idea’s for tomorrow are long long long exposures, flash photography and some light painting. All sound great and we could give them a try. The main aim for tomorrow is to get out and meet more people interested in photography (note how I didn’t say photographers). It really doesn’t matter what level you are at, it’s all just good fun!
Some little tips that might come in handy:
- Bring your camera (I’ve been told they come in handy)
- Charge your batteries (especially if you plan on taking long exposure shots)
- Bring along a tripod OR a really steady hand 
- If you have some small torches/LEDlights bring them along

Thanks again for organising this Kyle – i’ve put a few shots up on my flickr
My favourite one looks like light painting, but is actually a succesfull attempt to rescue my tripod and camera as it slowly slipped off the algae-coated quay edge !

I followed some of the links I noticed on my stats today and one was from http://www.allpoetry.com
This is what was said about the top image here:
Electrified by Penman
Feeling trapped in circle
those endless hours
of getting nowhere
just reaching the same place
where you began.
Creativity tapped in vivid streaks,
suddenly like lighting
it flashes in its power
and the mind burns in the night,
stars of thought explode.
In the darkness life flares
with all its energy
so the cold emptiness
doesn’t feel so void,
each sensation shudders,
every image becomes alive
feeling so full of the electricity
from imagination’s voltage.
Heartbeats surge with excitement
as every nerve ending tingles
before that moment of expression
brings a beautiful sunrise in imagery
leaving you nearly shaking inside
for how this magic second of inventive release
came with a wonderful intense power blast.
