Club Photo Shoot - Blue Hour in Roscommon



It was fairly cold and miserable in Roscommon this afternoon for the scheduled Boyle Camera Club Photo Shoot, and fair play to those daft enough to sacrifice the warmth of a cosy fire and Sunday afternoon telly for cold hands and a runny nose. For the brave that showed, you'll not get more challenging conditions for photography ... and I don't care how nice the Christmas lights looked in Roscommon Town ... it was wet and windy but it was great to see the enthusiasm and positivity on members faces. Ladies, ye know who ye are, ye put the rest of us to shame! Thing is, if ye want to learn ... don't let the weather hold ye back!! Get up off yer arses and get out there with yer cameras!
