Ireland is on my list of "must see" places. It certainly has a reputation as a wonderful place for landscapes. Good luck in your journeys in this fine area of photography.
I think I'll go have a stout now, hmmm, I hope I still have some!
Cheers,

Hi All, I have just joined the list so this is my first post to let you know who I am.
My name is Pat Curran and I hail from County Kilkenny in Ireland.
My main interest lies in the area of landscape photography but will seek to take good pictures in all situations. Having recently changed careers from dairy farmer to civil servant, I am now getting back into photography after an absence of 20 years with the aid of weekends free, paid leave and flexi time :)
This time round I want to make some money from the hobby and am actively looking at sending some work to picture libraries . To this end I have purchased a Minolta Dimage Scan Elite 5400 film scanner - sorry if this is OT.
With future picture sales in mind, I am also looking at the 6x7 medium format. My equipment at present is 35mm - 2 Super A bodies, 15mm f3.5 SMC A, 50mm f1.4 SMC A, 200mm f4 A, Digital Spotmeter, Soligor 30DA flash and a S/H Motor Drive A (purchased on eBay last year).
Can I ask the list what is the value of an 'Excellent' rated 28mm f2.8 A Series lens at present? - I bid US$130 on eBay yesterday and lost which was a stroke of luck as there are two on KEH today for US$84 and US$89.
Sorry for going on - future posts will be shorter and ON TOPIC!
Regards,
Pat Curran
