Kick, Push
Yes, I know I’ve neglected the blogging. Sorry about that.
Went to the opening of the new skate park in Greystones, which Wicklow County Council’s blog (yep, they have a blog) [UPDATE: on further investigation, the blog appears to be a commercial thing] likes to boast is the biggest in the country. It involved lots of skating, BMXes and rollerblading, aswell as some live music. Took plenty of photos.
Couldn’t get Kick, Push by Lupe Fiasco out of my head while processing them
Few of my favourites here, then more after the jump.
More on flickr too.

I’m not getting a lot of time to do updates at the moment though
and had to let the podcast go as well. ah well. currently working on a re-vamp of http://www.wicklow.com/glendalough

Hope I haven’t caused too much offence Alan. The comment was really only about the green and blue colours which I don’t think work too well together. Otherwise, it’s layed out well, and I definitely amn’t criticising the content (I’ve subscribed to the blog and been reading it since I discovered it)

[...] In related make-me-very-happy news, Nine Lives, a band I took photos of at the skatepark opening are playing a support slot at the Ambassador in Dublin on Saturday night, and asked me to shoot it for them. Having only taken photos at a few gigs in small clubs, this’ll be the biggest venue I’ve ever shot at, and the first one with a pit in front of the crowd to protect photographers from moshing teens.
