I have been getting more and more interested in photography over the past couple of years.  I'm only learning, but I certainly enjoy taking pictures!

Here are some of my favourite shots that I've taken.  They're not necessarily my best - rather, they're simply shots that appeal to me, each for a different reason.


I took this picture on a field-trip to the IMMA - The Irish Museum of Modern Art.


I like the juxtaposition between the very classical garden and the bustling development of modern Dublin.



I took this shot on a lovely sunny day down at the beach in Bray.  I like it because now, in the depths of darkest winter, it reminds me of how gorgeous Ireland can be when we get a bit of sunshine! 
Costa del Bray, wha'?




This is another shot from the same day of me and my sister, Becky.  I love this picture because it encapsulates all the fun we have together.  Being carefree in the summer sun is just the best feeling!



For now, c'est fini!  No doubt I'll post more pics here as I take them!

Another year over, and a new one just begun...

Well, not quite over yet!

A new year is a new beginning, a fresh start, so I've decided to start this blog as a small space where I can share a little bit of myself - my interests, photographs I like, lyrics and quotes I come across, that kind of thing.

I have a busy year ahead of me to be sure - completing my mod year in university, completing my probation year as a NQT (Newly Qualified Teacher), working full-time and running a home!  I think this blog will be a welcome distraction for me, if only as a place to share my random musings!

I'm sure I will enjoy this blogging experience!
