I do like the new buses – I travelled by bus today and noticed at least four people wore masks in a manner that did not cover their noses.
A shopkeeper, local to me, told me that when he drew attention to the fact that a lady was wearing a mask with a large hole in it she said that she was aware of the hole but she needed it as she smoked.
Trick or Treat for sick children: Hold a monstrously marvellous party in your home, workplace, school, creche or community and have some frighteningly good fun!
Every single day, hundreds of sick children and their worried families come through the doors of Temple Street in need of world-class medical care. The Children’s Health Foundation Temple Street raise the funds needed to ensure that these children have access to the very best paediatric equipment, facilities and supports when they need it most.
Using a Zeiss Batis 135mm lens imposed some constraints but I very much like this lens.
I am due to visit Belfast within a few days and the last time I was there, early 2019, I had a bad fall and damaged two or three ribs as well as my Sony A7RIII camera and my Voigtlander 40mm lens. Not long after that fall I purchased a Sony A7RIV and even though I intended to use the RIII as a backup body I never used it again mainly because I could not get geo-tagging to work. In general I preferred the newer body.
When I visited Kilkenny earlier this year both my Sony A7RIV and iPhone overheated. Ever since the Sony has given weird random problems and become somewhat annoying to use so I decided to give the A7RIII another go and much to my surprise I got, after a lot of effort, geo-tagging to work [not 100% reliable but acceptable]. If I switch off the camera it is necessary to reset Bluetooth.
I know that many claim that the A7RIII produces better images and that it is not worth paying the extra for the A7RIV and I can see why after using the MKIII today.
Today I used a Zeiss Batis 135mm lens. However, I had to abandon the session as both my iPhone and Sony camera overheated because the sun was really intense.
The National Botanic Gardens of Ireland are an oasis of calm and beauty, and entry is free. A premier scientific institution, the Gardens contain important collections of plant species and cultivars from all over the world. The National Botanic Gardens in Dublin are located in Glasnevin, just three kilometres from Dublin City Centre, and are famous for the exquisitely restored historic glasshouses. The National Botanic Gardens in Wicklow are located in Kilmacurragh, where the milder climate, higher rainfall, and deeper, acidic soils of this historic Wicklow garden, provide a counterpoint to the collections at Glasnevin. The two gardens have been closely associated since 1854. The National Botanic Gardens of Ireland are operated and managed by the Office of Public Works.
