Sweet GaJeebus, it's about time (Warning, boring travel pictures)

[MichaelHarris]

I uploaded my Ireland pictures from my camera.


Creepy God-Like lights, prolly coming to take my soul.


Yeah right, Ireland has bad weather in October


Doors with money


Doors without money


Didn't stand too close, still depressed about the election


Someone must have died here.


Did Sybil post today? I sure do miss those wacky-assed posts, she has more personalities than Charo.

1. Gorgeous. I find it hard to take pictures in Ireland. The light seems

so bright there. Lucky you. Where did you go?

[MichaelHarris]

2. we did a driving

tour of the South, 10 days from coast to coast. Landed in Shannon then drove the Ring of Kerry, then to the Cliffs of Mohr, then to Blarney. I didn't kiss the stone because people pee on it during the night. We have family right outside of Blarney. We ended up in Dublin on the last 2 nights.

As far as taking pictures I do something kind of goofy, I use scotch tape to diffuse the flash, sounds weird I know but using layers of tape can soften the light and trick the digital camera's light meter. It's so easy to fake out a digital camera. That's how I got the light in the church picture.

3. OOooh pretty!

Thanks for sharing them!

What's your avatar there?

[MichaelHarris]

5. Quisp or

Quake, the cereal guys. Mmmmm cereal

[redqueen]

11. Aha

I knew I recognized that onion-headed thing!

[MichaelHarris]

13. hahahahaha

so now I'm onion-headed now. Well I'll show you onion-headed.....


Did ya know you can get Quisp and Quake cereal online somewhere? Man you gotta love nostalgia

[redqueen]

14. Wow really?

My favoritest cereal from childhood was Count Chocula, and that's still on the shelves, so no special webistes required!

And no, you're not onion-headed, but that pink and green thing is!

[MichaelHarris]

15. why does

Mr Happy look like he's wearin' a WWII German army helmet? I never figured that out.

[redqueen]

16. Actually

I recently read or saw on some program that there's a scientific explanation for that. Related to fluid dynamics and the desire to displace the ... um ... seed of others with one's own. :)

[MichaelHarris]

18. fluid dynamics

God's gift to Man. Maybe I'll make a documentary about that.

[redqueen]

19. It's complicated stuff!

Well, from what I hear, anyhow. :)

[MichaelHarris]

20. it's

like a pump without a handle. More of a friction pump. Work of art really.

[redqueen]

21. Truly, it is.

Truly.

[MichaelHarris]

22. I'm at a loss

to explain why all this talk of fluid dynamics, and pump technology makes me need to take a cold shower.

[redqueen]

23. I'm not

but then I'm pretty much like that at this time EVERY day. :)

[MichaelHarris]

24. Great Googly Moogly

Ohhh to have you in front on the lens...........

On a different note B&W rocks:


Now all I gotta figure out is where to put the nude, maybe floating in a transcendental state?

[redqueen]

27. Does, doesn't it?

I like the hazy light in that pic... may I copy & post some of these elsewhere?

[MichaelHarris]

28. you certainly may

have any and all that you want, including the pictures. :)

[redqueen]

29. Yay!

Thanks. :D

[MichaelHarris]

32. your very welcome

I'll be adding more stuff soon. Even some errr aaaa well better pictures.

[MichaelHarris]

42. I'm not really at a loss

I know how I will handle it, by not opening my wallet anymore. Oops wrong thread but I'm still not opening my wallet :)

[Kellanved]

35. well, FWIW:

The form of German army helmets is essentially unchanged since WW1 - to this day.

Not worth much, though ;-)

[MichaelHarris]

36. which came first

the circumcision or the German army helmet?

[Kellanved]

37. ;-)

Engineers follow nature, not the other way round. The older, pointy design would have been uncomfortable anyway.

[StopTheMorans]

4. is the 5th one the cliffs of moher?

and where in Ireland did you go? looks like fun:D

[MichaelHarris]

6. We did

most of the south, spending a night in most of the cool places, once at this place called Kinitty castle:



Yeah, you guessed it, I had sex in a castle and it was good dammit.

Yup, the cliffs of Mohr, to be honset I was more impressed by the golf course close to it.

[StopTheMorans]

7. good work Michael, sounds like a great time!

i went 3 1/2 years ago, and i'm hoping to go back this year:D

[MichaelHarris]

10. We want to go back this year also

we have lots of aunts and uncles on my wifes side there. Her parents are going this year so we may try to go with them, if not then next year. Did I mention the girls are really hot around Trinity College?

[StopTheMorans]

31. i noticed when i was there

:D

[MichaelHarris]

8. We saw

the bog man in a museum in Dublin, man that's one messed up dude all petrified like. I'm really hoping to be a bog man after my death.

[MichaelHarris]

17. I saw the picture

you won the photo thread with, it was bad ass. Most of my photos are not fit for DU consumption. You know that fine line between fine art and fine porn that exists around here.

[pmbryant]

9. Nice photos

Thanks for sharing.

Peter

[MichaelHarris]

12. Your welcome

I saw apost about a guy needing help with his digital camera and I remembered I have a card I haven't even looked at yet. Good thing there wasn't any porn on it.

[amazona]

25. wow very nice

Cross post to the photography page, they'll hang around longer.

[MichaelHarris]

26. thank you

I didn't think of that. I would actually like to join that group.

[frictionlessO]

30. some beautiful shots there! your captions are most excellent as well!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[MichaelHarris]

33. LOL thanks

always like to add a bit of humor to evertyhing I do, keeps like less boring.

[Schema Thing]

34. I love the god-light pic, very nice. eom

[Gloria]

38. Great pics, thanks! I've been getting that old longing for

Europe and this helps fuel the feeling.

Unfortuately, my self-tutoring in French is not going anywhere fast...

[miss_kitty]

39. Didja meet any Irish DUers?

[MichaelHarris]

40. I didn't

know any but this one skinny irish kid wanted to beat me up for being American. The reason I didn't fight back was because his assessment of Americans was right about 52% who voted.

[miss_kitty]

41. Or the seeming 52 % of the people

hey! I think they stole another one, via Ohio.
