Club Outing – Skerries and Ardgillan Castle
With muted sunshine and a full tide, rapidly receding, under a medley of clouds five members met in the car park at Skerries. We wandered the seashore waiting wistfully for the sun to light Rockabill and its lighthouse and the Colt Island. Coffee beckoned after which...
Club Outing – Giant’s Causeway
Well, the (not so) intrepid seven were driven north with some degree of trepidation and dread! We had a driver who spent much of the outbound trip regaling his (captive) audience with tales of terror and protest, of oppression and unrest. Anyway, we braved the border...
Club Outing – Inistioge, Co. Kilkenny
Only two of us arrived in the beautiful historic village of Inistioge. We basked in the sunshine, enjoying freshly baked scones on the banks of the river Nore with the fabulous 10 arched bridge in the background. We rambled on to Woodstock gardens and were taken aback...
Club Event – Model Night
On the 20th May we had a practical model evening as a follow on from the talk the previous week by Dermot Byrne on how to work with and pose models. We had 4 models (Sarah Vogel, Kitty LeRoux, Bella Dama and Jonnie Kilfeather) and lighting setups which enabled the...
Club Outing – Junior Liffey Decent
The Junior Liffey Descent was held on Saturday, 18th May 2019. The 10KM route started in Leixlip and finished in Chapelizod. Unlike the slalom event outing in March, where the many gates to be negotiated produced opportunities for action shots, much of the 10KM route...
Club Outing – National Botanic Gardens, Kilmacurragh
We had a great turn out for our outing to Kilmacurragh. We had perfect weather conditions and, after a very sociable coffee, we all took our various paths through the wonderful tree and flower specimens. Some of us happened upon a bizarre event of a possible...
Club Outing – Hill Walk, Howth Castle
The sun shone beautifully on our glorious day out in Howth. We enjoyed fantastic views over Dublin Bay with Ireland's Eye and Lambay Island glistening in the sun. We were enthralled with the magical winding pathways through the rhododendron trees. It was a first...
Club Outing – Killinthomas Woods
The weather forecast bode ill with wind and rain but some 12 members ventured into the trees amongst a carpet of blue waving bluebells. The light dappled its way through the foliage and very occasionally the very few light rain showers obliterated the sun; it was...
Club Outing – Sunset at Lough Tay
On Saturday 13th April five of us braved the fresh and windy mountain top but were not rewarded with a sunset over Lough Tay. We did enjoy the beauty of the vista though and the banter and the fresh air. Some images (click on an image to open in full-screen mode) from...
