Will Knott

Its been a while since I’ve been here.

And how many things have changed.

This is a personal blog, just saying. That means, to me, that I blog because I feel like blogging. But when life offers you options that make blogging hard to do, it makes blogging hard to do. Simply put, I’m not too sure what to put here.

Anything that stops the merry-go-round of a need to write will stop it. Part of this is of course that I write on Culch.ie and I’m doing some work for WRF2.com. And part of it is that this particular itch hasn’t needed scratching.

I haven’t even been photo-blogging (most of the photos  taken over the last few months were either for relations (and not to be disseminated beyond cousins) or for friends to put on Facebook (usually under their accounts).

But the itch is returning. There will be cross postings (of course) , but expect to see this blog rise up.

Part of it is, its Summer. I feel a little bit better. My life is still in a state where I don’t want to write about it, but I’m looking around more. Feel like writing more. Getting my fngers to write for me anyway.

There will be shuffling. But I think this blog is going around once more.

I’m a little late with these, but I have only my upload speed to blame (24 hours for 17 photos!). Now I’m back home things should move a little faster.

On Valentine’s Day, the Alternative Miss Cork contest took place in The Savoy Theatre in Cork city, and the contest was hosted by “the divine” Miss Panti Bliss, who not only blogs proficiently, but does a little photobloging of her own.

The winner of the Alternative Miss Cork will represent Cork for the title of Alternative Miss Ireland on March 14th 2010. And of course, Panti is the MC for that night too.

Sometimes chance smiles, other times she points and laughs. This shot is a bit of both.

I noticed the “cut-out” in the Samuel Beckett Bridge, and that through it you could see some of Dublin’s landmarks. As I was focusing the couple on the other side of the bridge turned to kiss.

Snap!

Just as a car pulled in front of the vista leaving its radio areal in the shot.

Oh well.

I’m sure someone will stage this shot soon enough. A wedding party perhaps?

The same crow as yesterday, calling out a battle cry perhaps?
