Day 315

Another rainy day up in the hills, and the extra two and a half months on winter mean that very little is growing, apart from weeds.

Day 280

It is a grey, wet, and thoroughly grim day in Dublin today. Not a day for wandering around with my camera. Conversely though, it is a day for running. When I first started this blog it was partly to fill in the time as I couldn't train during a period of injury, so it's appropriate that I can combine the two today.

Day 237

What a deluge we had this afternoon! There's still snow on the hills, but it was far too wet to leave the house, and anyway I have a lot of packing to do for my trip to France. This photo was made by my new polarising filter, which brought up the reflections nicely.

Day 225

A cold wet day in Dublin today, but we were out and about, and seeing as this blog is all about getting out of the car, or getting off the couch, then I'm very happy with this photo

Day 114

I am starting to fear for my blog as we head towards winter. It rains a lot, and it's difficult to find new and interesting ways to photograph the wet. I had an idea for a photo when I left this morning, but circumstances worked against me and I couldn't get it. This is a attempt at that image, but it's not quite there. Rain me hole!

Day 100

There's a long list of reasons for today to be consigned to the dustbin of history: weather, work, traffic, weather again. Sometimes you just have to envy a cat; especially one whose only stress is some eejit trying to take her photograph

Day 74

I moved in to a new house in Dingle today: holiday homes right in the centre of town. But I'm glad I'm not on holiday, because it is wet, very wet. These poor chairs don't stand a chance of seeing any action at this rate.

Day 59

The weather really is taking the piss now! Try as I might I can't face another rain photo, so where would I rather be? Why inside, with a cup of tea and a good book of course.

P.S. For the benefit of those curious, especially my Russian readers, the book is Life and Fate by Vasily Grossman.
