"Red Bull Hits the Streets of Belfast"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7gP7CW1DPY
I went to the event on saturday, and all I can say is Friggin Brilliant!!
An estimated 18,000 people lined the streets of Belfast on Saturday night to watch David Coulthard burn up the city centre streets in his F1 car. It might not be Monaco, but that didn’t stop the F1 star from driving at 150mph through the red lights outside city hall. It’s not normally a stretch of road cars can drive fast on, but Coulthard was given special clearance for the show. Thirteen-times Grand Prix race winner Coulthard streaked from the starting point of the Black Man statue to the law courts finishing line. He also performed lots of ‘doughnut’ spins.

Yellow Pages, Website and New Camera

I made the decision in January that I would buy myself a new camera&lens.After lots and lots of reading, chin stroking and visits to numerous camera shops for a feel and a fiddle I finally stumped up the cash and got myself a new one. This is why I haven’t been as busy putting up new posts...
My new Website will be up and running very soon and it`s great to see my pictures published in the N.Ireland edition of the Yellow Pages...

Lough Island Reavy and Spelga Dam

http://www.mourneobserver.com/160408news05.html
Winter grips Kilcoo and causes a rare phenomenon at the weekend. A solid sheet of ice covered Lough Island Reavy Reservoir for the first time. Mother Nature casts a sparkling spell, turning the landscape into a winter wonderland...







Kilcoo was covered in a lovely white frost this morning, and most of the day. Unfortunately I could not get out and about to get nice photos.I would have loved to have gone to Tollymore Forest Park to see what it looked like. You can see the white frost on the tree here, with the long morning shadows. I think this morning was the coldest weather Kilcoo has had for a very long time...





Even yer man from UTV Jamie Delargy was having great fun at Spelga. "The craic was 90"
























Castlewellan Forest Park Peace Maze

Walking around Castlewellan park today I saw fresh snow across the whole of the maze. With most of the snow around town all disturbed, this fenced off snow looked great for today's photo. Just wish the sun had been a little higher.
