All the girls have lovely bottoms

As @lexia said earlier today, "We're all a step away from a Father Ted gag. This knowledge makes me feel safe."

Finally uploaded photos from last weekend.

THE inauguration photo to beat all

"How I Made a 1,474-Megapixel Photo During President Obama’s Inaugural Address". This guy took 22 images to create a 59,783 X 24,658 image weighing in as a 2GB .TIF file. Amazing work by David Bergman.

What traffic?

I was having a look at the Dublin City Council's traffic cameras to see if I should maybe thing about getting the bus instead of the over-priced train and I came across the above - I've no idea what this is supposed to be telling us but thought it was pretty cool in the middle of all the smelly traffic jamb pics.

Live traffic voyeurism here.

Bumper Photo Post

I love that word - "bumper". Anyway, for anyone who's interested, I've put photos from the foggy trip to Killiney and the more recent excursion to London on Flickr.

Not to disappoint, the top set contain photos of me being ridiculous. Enjoy.

The Circus - my first trip

Last weekend, at the tender age of 23, I made my first trip to the circus. Fossett's circus were in Lucan, which so happens to be their 'hometown', if a circus can have such a thing. It's their 120th anniversary tour of Ireland - quite the achievement when you consider the rough times they have experienced of late which forced them into selling their animals to save a few sheckels. My expectations were mixed with this in mind but I was pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed it. It wasn't a sell-out, if that's testiment to their week-long residency in Lucan or the lack of appeal to young'uns who have too much entertainment at hand I'm not sure. It had a charm about it that was certainly of days gone by and I think that was what was key to making it so enjoyable for a kid of 23. My first candy floss experience (seen above) was also positive, if a little sickening and sticky.

Favourites have to be the contortionist/acrobat girl who did a beautiful routine balancing candlesticks and the Brazilian flying trapeez troupe. The 3 bikers in the "cage of death" was awesome if a little scary. Some more photos on my flickr account. Vive la circus!
