I did two things worth mentioning today: I wrote, and I walked around Cobh taking photographs for three hours. That made for a peculiarly full day. Most of the photos are total crap, but I was trying to learn how to use the manual settings on the camera, so I was pretty much expecting them to be crap. I ended up with half a dozen I liked, including one I submitted to today’s , and a shot of a dandelion that’s goddamned Artistic. :) I’ll link to it when it…

It’s the principle of the thing, and I expect it’ll be fun. :) Getting tickets has pretty much been my sole accomplishment for the day.
