Day 325

Late leaving work today, but thankfully there's a grand stretch in the evening, so I was able to take this view of Dun Laoghaire marine before I headed for home.

Day 320

I brought my macro lens to work today, secure in the knowledge that Dun Laoghaire would reward me with something good. And I wasn't disappointed, but then again rusting chains appeal to me in a way they probably don't to other people. I like the texture in this shot, along with the colour, and funnily enough I was just talking about Isambard Kingdom Brunel earlier, so it seems more appropriate somehow.

Day 247

Working in Dun Laoghaire again today, and I took the opportunity to take a walk down to the marina. I'm amazed now at how I ever survived without a polarising filter: the difference it makes on a sunny day is incredible.

Day 200

Two hundred days in, and tonight I took my new 7D out for a test run. A flying visit to Dun Laoghaire allowed me the opportunity to shoot a long exposure of the marina. Funnily enough, so used am I to the fixed lens on my X1 that I forgot I could reframe using the zoom lens.
