Once in a while we go out and do a night shoot. This is the Dublinia footbridge, a medieval bridge that connects Christchurch (directly to the right of this photo) to, er, whatever the Dublinia building used to be. Well.

Kitsnaps: Dandelion
To make up for yesterday’s snapshot, today we have Art. :) I took this for a photography class.

One ceases to notice the soft air most of the time, but when rain has beaten it from the sky, the crispness *is* noticeable. So everything was unusually clear this particular morning, and I thought the vibrance of…
Kitsnaps: Bumble Butt
This photo is so captioned because I knew it would make my nephews laugh. And it did. Therefore, this picture is a total success. :) Except eventually it did occur to me that being in Ireland and all now, I really should have called it Bumble Bum. Oh well. :)
