Back Flip in Back Garden – © PAUL TREACY 2012


Connor takes a break from his football practice to watch his neighbour perform a back flip.

It has been way too long since any of us posted to this blog. I will try to rectify that. I will, we all will try to blog regularly from now on and especially over the summer.

Some blog posts will appear on Eoin's blog or even Connor's blog as they will have things to show, drawings, Lego constructions, animations and the like.

So I hope to see some comments and perhaps some links to posts by others among you.

Hope all are well and we'll see you again soon.

Paul, Claire, Eoin and Connor.

The Gathering 2011

Here we all are in Mum's and Dad's kitchen in New Ross during the chaos before dinner.



More soon. Paul.

Connor, Dad (Kevin), Mum (Angela) and Eoin

It has been ages since any of us have posted here. We'll try to get back into the flow.

I'll resume with an image of my parents, Keving and Angela with the two lads taking a short break on a bench outside the cafe in Crystal Palace Park where we were soon the have ice creams. Connor had just previously bloodied his poor knees but was none the less proud of his wounds. And how about those holes?

Back soon with more material.

Resumption of family blogging

So sorry that we've not blogged anything for so many months. Time to change that.

I'm not sure where to start. How about with some recent shots? Will get to other matters soon enough.

Last night Eoin bellowed down from his bed, "THE FOURTH DEATH JUST HAPPENED!" He read a condensed Macbeth in one session.

While either Eoin or Connor is attending an after school activity, we play tennis with wooden bats while we wait. Here's Connor whacking away at me.

Here's Connor munching on an apple. It's quite difficult keeping him fed at the moment.

As soon as we get home they need MORE food. You can see the effect it has on Connor.

And wrapping up the post is a spooky, shadowy Eoin upstairs.

I'll be back soon with Eoin's invitation to his party this weekend. He'll be 9 on Tuesday. Already!

Here are some links to explore.

Exhibition at Strand Gallery (Proud Central)

I'm delighted to announce that my work is to feature in an exhibition of the London Independent Photography group at the Strand Gallery (Proud Central) here in London between 20th and 30th October 2010, just a week away.

32 John Adam Street, London WC2N 6BP. Monday - Saturday 11am - 7pm. Free.



Three photographs will hang, including this one above of Connor sucking on a lollipop near the multiplex cinema in Peckham, south London. (He doesn't even like lollipops much and I don't think he finished this one.)

I'm hoping to use this opportunity to secure a solo show either at this same gallery or similar.

If you're in London over this period then I hope you'll come see it.

Many thanks.

ARROW 360 - The Go-Cart Project

Over the summer my sons and I built this go-cart. Most of the materials used were found while walking home from school over a period of many weeks.



It was an opportunity for me to teach them about preparing materials, using tools, realizing a concept and a practical application of simple mathematics.



It was also a golden opportunity for us to make a cool little movie. Of course, we just had to reference the BBC title sequence for their Formula One Motor Racing coverage. And I hope Fleetwood Mac won't mind my including a segment of The Chain because nothing comes close for this subject matter.



Cameras: Olympus E-PL1 (with Nikkor prime lenses) and Nikon D200.

Software: Photoshop, Nikon View, GarageBand and iMovie 09.

Hardware: Apple MacBook.
