		<title>Photo of the Week 119 &amp; 120 &#8211; Two New Muses</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a long time now my two favourite subjects have been trains and butterflies, but this year I&#8217;ve started to be attracted by two related new muses. Butterflies are probably the most eye-catching insects in Ireland, but I think the largest are the Dragonflies and Damselflies that fill our summer skies. I&#8217;ve only been focusing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo of the Week 118 &#8211; No. 186 Steaming West</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since it&#8217;s been a while since I posted a railway shot in this Photo of the Week series, I thought I&#8217;d treat myself by posting my favourite steam shot of the year (so far). I chose this location precisely because it&#8217;s free from modern distractions. There are no modern houses, no electricity pylons, no modern [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo of the Week 116 &amp; 117 &#8211; Big Summer Skies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been on a bit of a break from Photography &#8211; a combination of injury and crap-tacular weather, so I have yet another catch-up post to do! As always when I do multiple posts, the two images are related, in this case, very related, being two different treatments of the same RAW image. This shot [...]]]></description>

		<title>Some Thoughts on Composition</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Initially I&#8217;d started writing these thoughts up as bullet points to use as show-notes for this weekend&#8217;s Chit Chat Across the Pond segment on the NosillaCast, but as I worked on them I realised they were worth developing into a full blog post. The aim here is to share some of my thoughts on composing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Review of Money3 by Jumsoft</title>
		<description><![CDATA[THe week before last I posted a description of the final stages of my quest for a new personal finance app, and explained how I came to choose Money3 from Jumsoft, what I didn&#8217;t do was actually review the product though, so I thought I&#8217;d do that now. On the one hand I&#8217;ve only been [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo of the Week 115 &#8211; Female Common Blue Butterfly</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have quite a few good butterfly shots in reserve for future Photo of the Week posts, but I want to keep things nice and varied, so I&#8217;m only going to be posting one every few weeks. Since it&#8217;s been over a month since I shared a butterfly shot, I figure it might be time [...]]]></description>

		<title>My Quest for a New Personal Finance App – Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few months ago I started my quest to replace Cha-Ching because of how bad my experience with their 2.0 beta was, and how poor their support response was (I got no response at all). I outlined the choices I&#8217;d been considering at that stage in part 1 of this article. Since that post there&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo of the Week 114 &#8211; Soccer on the Playing Fields</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not even the smallest bit of a football fan, but given that it&#8217;s World Cup final weekend, I figured this would be a good time to share one of my few football photos. As well as being beautiful, the grounds of St. Patrick&#8217;s College provide a great amenity for the people of Maynooth. Here [...]]]></description>

		<title>Belgian Railway History Project &#8211; Update</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I though today might be a good time to share another snapshot of my on-going project to Map all Belgium&#8217;s railways, past, present, and even to some extent future, with Google Earth. This snapshot is much more complete than the last one, though I still don&#8217;t consider it even close to finished.
The big change here [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo of the Week 113 &#8211; Grey Heron</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In my mind the most beautiful bird we have in Ireland is the Grey Heron (Ardea cinerea). Others may disagree, but I&#8217;ve always loved these big, elegant, but rather skittish birds. Because they&#8217;re so easily frightened even a 200mm zoom often isn&#8217;t enough to get a great shot, but sometimes you get lucky, and you [...]]]></description>
