    I love the first one, and of course “Michelle fortune teller” still makes me grin, but my all time favourite is still the Polosh guy.

    There are so many Poles in our area now that they have their own newspaper and shops. I like it actually. :-) My dad works with Poles who (wait for this!!) make poles! He’s at the nearby sawmill and about half the staff are Polish. Nice bunch of guys, terrible language.

    :-) Hehehe! Poles who make poles – priceless! I’ve been to Poland twice and I love the country – also have several Polish friends in Ireland – as you said, the language is more than a slight challenge… lots of c,h,p,z,w,k, & y’s next to each other… Mmmm maybe I should go there and teach English as a foreign language…

    I think your photos are good enough to sell, and you should, to fund more travelling :-) Hence more photography :-)

    I particularly like the “special guest” photo. That’s fantastic.

    Hey, thanks for the comp Jean! Yeah, that’s my fave picture too. It was taken at a demonstration in Dublin in 2003. What I like about it is that you can also just about make out the blurry message on the sign in the background.

    I like your thinking regarding more travel :-) Next time I’m taking a quality digital SLR camera which I’m saving up for at the moment – nowadays images need to be larger than 8 mega pixels to sell on-line.

    All the pics above, bar the 3 at the top were originally taken with film camera’s. I have the negatives which might be good for enlargements and prints, posters even, but I’m not too sure what the market is like for that.

    I’ll tell you this much though, I am SO itching to get out there again. To take photos is at least 50% of the reason why I travel :-)

    These photos are simply FABULOUS. The quality of the photos is superb plus they are injected with something more, your perspective. The results are sublime.
