A few weeks ago, I’d been sent a link to a technicolor tutorial in Photoshop. It’s been a little bit since I’ve played around in Photoshop, but it’s always fun to learn a little something new.

I found a few photographs I’d taken with my brother just about a year and a half ago and thought they might be fun to play with. I didn’t achieve the exact look I was going for, but here’s a glimpse at my very first attempt at  “Technicolor” photos.

We left early from Doolin on the road to Dingle. I was still pretty sleepy, but I did wake up to see a few nice things.

Hooray! Today’s google doodle is featuring Eadweard Muybridge! Happy birthday, old friend!

You may be familiar with his work – which, essentially pioneered movies (moving pictures).

Still a bit jet-lagged from flying in the day before, Mom and I started driving around to take in all southeastern Ireland had to offer to us. We drove nearly 1,000 kilometers during our stay. We travelled down the southeastern coast starting in Doolin, then to Dingle, followed by Kenmare, Blarney and Bunratty. My goal – like it was in Germany – was castles. Mom’s was everything.

I’d done a bit of reading on the Burren the night before – as I’d slept all day as soon as we’d gotten to the Trildoon House B&B. There, my main objective was to find fossils. I didn’t do so well until I climbed the stairs at the Cliffs of Moher.

Bear with me as I try experiment with galleries. Leave a comment letting me know whether you like this or I should try something else… Or even go back to how I’d been posting photos before.

Until next time!
