April 2009 Archives

Here's some pages from Photographer magazine, Ukraine/Russia Jan-Feb 2009 featuring my Iceberg images from trips as blogger and press officer to the Southern Ocean and Antartica on board the Greenpeace ship Esperanza in 2007 and 2008, to find the Japanese whaling fleet. The text is in Russian, btw...

Believe it or not, some of my photographs of New Zealand were used in in Series 2 of the HBO TV Series Flight of the Conchords - as the rather misguided New Zealand tourism posters on the wall of Deputy Cultural Attache Murray Hewitt's office.

Ok, it helps if you read Spanish for this one - I've had an article published in the Spanish Lonely Planet magazine, thanks to Luis at Granangular. It's based on my book, Haunted Dublin, published in October 2008. The article is basically a summary of many of the things in the book, with tales of black dogs, phantom cats, headless horsemen - even bodiless heads - and the murderous black pig that stalked the streets around Christchurch cathedral (above).

Just received a new batch of wonderful Moo Cards - two sizes of business cards, greeting cards and notecards.

They're great advertising - I've sold prints just from handing over these business cards in social and business situations. With the smaller, long cards, you can get potentially 100 different images for about €15 - the larger cards are about €15 for 50.
