I'm delighted to share the news that Day 516 is a finalist for Best Photo Blog at the Irish Blog Awards.
Thanks sincerely to anyone who nominated or voted for me. I hoped, but never expected, to make it to the final shortlist and am absolutely delighted. Thank you to Damien Mulley and Team Blog Awards who put a terrific amount of effort into this event. And thank you to pix.ie who sponsor the category.
The other nominees for best photo blog are:
-
Nathalie Marquez Courtney
Nathalie has a real delicate touch when it comes to portrait photography; the work on her blog is personal and evocative.
Favourites: Baby Darragh, Those Eyes.
-
Ronan Palliser
Ronan's work is expertly accomplished. In companion to strong images he often deconstructs the production process so that we can all learn from his approach.
Favourites: Self-portrait, Unprocessed: Stony Lough Eske.
-
North Atlantic Skyline
John Smyth is a master of skies, whether overcast, burning red, shining blue, or hiding in darkness. Each entry on his blog has a custom background colour to complement and enhance the image.
Favourites: Ice-cold, The Night Watchman.
-
Red Mum
Red Mum has been blogging strongly for years. Her photos always capture and emphasise mood beautifully, whether at events like a parade or a motor-race, or on a quiet deserted beach.
Favourites: Washington DC, Anthony Gormley's Another Place.
The 2010 Blog Awards are on Saturday 27th March at the Radisson Blu Hotel in Galway at 7.00pm sharp.
Tickets, priced at a very reasonable ?15, are available to buy online. I wish I could be there. All the best to everyone involved.
UPDATE 27 March: Congratulations to Red Mum who brought home the blogging bacon: )
