Donegal " In the Field" Photographic Workshop

June 20th 2009 saw me standing amongst the wild and beautiful countryside of Donegal on one of my one to one "In the Field" Irish Photographic workshops.

The workshop began early in the depths of the Poison Glen and took in Glenveagh National Park before finishing up in the town of Bunbeg.

Despite the intermittent showers some excellent images where captured by the participant. His shot of a view from Glenveagh as the rain begins to come in is my personal favourite.

The workshop while intensive was a lot of fun and covered topics including

• Composition
• Understanding light
• Apertures
• Shutterspeed

Drogheda Photographic Society Lightroom Workshop

I have been invited to the Drogheda Photographic Society to give a talk and demonstration on Adobe's Lightroom product. As regular readers of my " In the Field " will know it is a programme I use a lot, and acts as a great Raw converter and data base manager.

 As a former member of the club it will be nice to meet some old friends and catch up with them.

 The workshop will take place on Thursday April 23rd in the clubs premises at the Millmount centre in Drogheda and will start at 8.30PM. See you there!

"Off the beaten track"

April 2008 saw the opening of Irish Landscape Photographer Peter McCabe exhibition entitled "Off the beaten track" in the Man Made Images gallery in Mountcharles County Donegal Ireland.

The gallery is the only gallery dedicated purely to exhibiting photography in Ireland.

Opening night was one of mixed emotions. Peter was nervous with thoughts that no one would turn up yet excited the weeks of hard work had finally come to fruition.

Thankfully opening night was a resounding success. The gallery was packed to the rafters and a large number of his Irish landscape prints where sold on opening night.
