I found this Olympus Trip XB3 Big Finder 35mm Point and Shoot Camera in our house and immediately adopted it, as is my habit. I loaded a roll of Ilford HP5+, and went to a local park to see what it could do. I have included three of the photos below. My favourite feature of …
Rapeseed Field
A few weeks ago I went for a drive around Carlow and took these photos of a Rapeseed Field that I found. These fields are always so bright and cheerful, and I love how they always make the sky look interesting, thankfully this particular day was bright.
Seapoint Rugby Club IRFU Legends
Seapoint Rugby Club hosted a family event on Saturday and they had a number of Irish Rugby Legends there. I have photos of some of them below. I don't know which team won the kicking competition, the Legends, the minis or the bigger kids. It seems to have been close to a draw. It was …
Redbull Cliff Diving Dun Laoghaire
This was the first time I have ever attended the Cliff diving event, even though I have meant to go before. It was spectacular to watch people diving from twenty and twenty six meter boards. The sea was approximately 12 degrees Celsius, which is why the competitors were allowed to wear wetsuits, if they wished …
A Trip into Town
Here are a selection of shots I took in town, a few weeks ago. Three of the shots were taken from the top of a carpark, one is a piece of street art by the artist Art of the Heid. The other is a shot from the Huguenot cemetery. I am not sure which film …
Mount Usher on Film

FujiColour C200 35mm Film
A recent trip to Marlay Park, on a lovely Summers day for a Pinhole Workshop, enabled me to take my Canon 300V loaded with a roll of FujiColour C200 film for an outing. I am trying to keep better notes on what film I used with which camera, in an effort to help me decide …
Powerscourt Waterfall
These photos come from multiple trips I made to see Powerscourt waterfall earlier this year. I shot both digital and film images when I was there. I have to go and get some better photos, it was the first day that I had shot with my Mamiya 645 camera (black and white image) The link …
Pinhole Workshop with ID11 Photography Studio
A couple of weeks ago I attended a Pinhole Workshop hosted by ID11 Photographic Studio in Marlay Park, Dublin. We made our cameras from boxes and took one negative image and one positive image. I would highly recommend a course with this Photography Studio, they mentioned that they will be teaching some other alternative processes …

Offshoot Photographic Society's Annual Exhibition will be running from the 7th of May until the 17th of June at Deansgrange Library, Dublin. It is always interesting to see the vast number of subjects that Club Members shoot, and the manner in which they approach those subjects. Thank you to Dave and Tony for organising it …
