I took this photo when I was in New York last year. Its taken from one of the bridges leaving Manhattan, I cant remember which one… Anyway, which ever way the settings on the camera were set up two big columns appeared in the final photo in the approx same place where the twin towers would have been. I can’t Photoshop for my life so it is legit.
Mmf.

We decided we’d try our hands at starting our own little screen-printing business a few months ago and cards seemed like the best place to start. We’ve been loving every second of it!
All designs are initially sketched by ourselves and then transfered to silkscreen. We hand screen-print our cards in our small studio in Dublin. Almost all the paper we use is recycled and all materials are locally sourced. Our ethos is to make an environmentally friendly, quality handmade product that won’t hurt the piggy bank.

Mullaghmore {Co Sligo] is now on the world Map of big wave riders looking for their XXL nomination. This is all good but stoked to see Peter Conroy claiming the barrel of the season so far while Daithi Lavelle pictured (above) surfed the biggest barrel i have ever seen out there a few years ago. Lots of talk of big wave guys having to dedicate themselves etc etc both these guys are just regular Irish guys who have to juggle jobs, families etc just to get the time to get out there never mind train. Funny thing about this photo is that Daithi got out there early on the low tide while others were waiting for it to mellow out with the higher tide. Not because he was proving a point but because he had to pick up the kids from school after.
Now that’s gnarly.
The Government will have legislated for the X case.
According to RTÉ, this rough date has been relayed by the Irish Government to the Council of Europe’s committee of ministers. The committee oversees how EU states comply with judgments set down by the European Court of Human Rights.
The move follows the A,B,C vs Ireland case at the ECHR.
Government to enact X case legislation by end of July, RTÉ
