Finally managed to escape to the airport for a few hours this morning  ;D it was bloody cold but i enjoyed the few hours of just snapping, even if frostbite was setting in  ;)    Heres a few examples .... will add some to the gallery when im fully defrosted.. :drinks: :LOL                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09002.jpg)  (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09033.jpg)  (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09042.jpg)  (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09493.jpg) (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09118.jpg) (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09403.jpg) (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09309.jpg)(http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09066.jpg)  (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09476.jpg)  (http://i283.photobucket.com/albums/kk308/doncashen/DublinAirport28-12-09526.jpg)

Nice one Don! The first Continental shot is a stunner! I love the frost on the ground, looks fantastic when in the sun aswell. I was down in Dublin yesterday picking Noora up, had 5 hours of perfect, crystal clear weather for shooting, unfortunately 5 hours in the freezing didn't do my hands much good but some of the shots I got were well worth it!

Hi TCX15 the camera i use is a second hand Nikon D70 with a sigma 70-300mm lens.... most people on the site that use cameras have the details of their equipment posted on their profile...

Thanks Dave... You were lucky with the sunshine on sunday, i only got a couple of hours of it before the fog moved in and ruined the light,as for frozen hands, i bought a set of hand warmers in aldi last year and they do a great job, i leave them in my pockets and just stick the hands in whenever i get a chance. i looked liike a eskimo yesterday but it was worth it...  By the way as you support Man Utd you might like to know the Citation Excel G-XLGB that i got was bringing Alex Ferguson over to watch his horse run at Lepoardstown only for the race to be cancelled due to poor light because of the fog.... ::)
