A sunny Saturday morning in Curracloe

About Conor Cullen
I purchased my first camera in May 2012, around the time of my 30th birthday, and it has now become the primary way I populate this site.
I couldn't afford a Porsche.
I'm very much a beginner in photography terms, but I'm having fun trying things out and, hopefully, learning as I go.
I'm addicted to chocolate and have a serious pastry fetish. Especially if those pastries are Danish.
I can't stop listening to music, all the time.
I share many things in common with many older Irish ladies, like a devotion to good cups of tea and a deep love of jumpers that, for some reason, other people don't consider so "cool" unless I'm wearing them ironically.
I'm not wearing them ironically. I wouldn't even know how.
My current favourite jumper is mustard in colour and features three ducks, reminsicent of the ones from Duck Hunt on the original Nintendo. It was a present. Thanks Naomi.
I come alive when I'm creating something or helping someone. I have yet to put this knowledge to satisfactory use. The quest for truly worthwhile living continues.
I am a peaceful person, but if I am ever to be convinced to go to war for any cause your best bet is good manners. I'm not all that moved by religion, power or money, but if you don't just hold that door for a second I could become John Rambo. In a skinny, passive aggressive kind of way.
I love trees.
I have a dog called Rusty. He is very handsome, friendly and charming and will feature in many of my photographs.
Much like me, all Rusty wants is generous amounts of food and attention. And a beach to play on.
The thing I want to hear about most is ideas.
I have a strong interest in digital and social media platforms, particularly how they can be used (imaginatively) in a communications context.
I’m a sandwich enthusiast and innovator. All sandwich suggestions welcome.
The views expressed here are solely and wholly my own etc

Hey Connor…Thanks so much for the ‘like’ on my post…really nice of you..I don’t get anywhere near enough sandwich enthusiasts so you’re extra welcome…
Ha! Glad I could add some diversity to your audience!
Perfect clear light. Those clouds look a bit threatening, I hope you didn’t get wet.
We had two hours of glorious sunshine and the heavens opened just as we got to the car – perfect timing!
Lucky indeed….. AND you got some choice shots in the bag.
Thanks!
That is one happy dog. Nice shot.
Thanks. He had fun alright!

Thank you very much. He’s a photogenic dog!

Those photos are great. I really like the trains and steam engines too. Thanks for stopping by. I’m onyl a beginner so I’m trying out and testing things all the time, seeing what feels good.
