Wet wedding days

Callan wedding

A wet day in Callan : Nigel Borrington

No weddings this weekend, but I noticed one couple did get married in the town. Oh god what a weekend for it, the worst rain we have had for months.

I cannot say that I have ever had to do a wedding in rain like that, lots of snow over the last two winters but wind and rain like that no thank god. As a photographer you cannot expect to do every wedding going nor should you aim to, I cannot help but feel a little relieved that I didn’t get this one!

Friday 21st of October, The Weather forecast for the weekend was not good so I took the afternoon off and walked to the top of Brandon Hill, Co.Kilkenny.

On the way up it occurred to me just how little detail an image needs, yet it can still be of great interest to the viewer. I am going to keep exploring this but I think its to do with contrast and the simple layers that make-up the picture.
