Even though I spend way too much time in front of the computer, it&#8217;s not for blogging. I&#8217;m far more likely to be on Twitter as @lightroomblog. Anyway, here&#8217;s the lowdown on recent stuff. <\/p>\n<p>I launched <a href=\"http:\/\/lightroom-blog.com\/lr2pikchur\">LR2Pikchur<\/a>, a Lightroom Plugin to allow you to post photos and messages to Twitter via Pikchur.com, this morning. It means I&#8217;ve 3 publicly available plugins that do this. I have a Yfrog one too, but as they&#8217;ve never returned a single email from their &#8216;partnership&#8217; form, it&#8217;s just languishing. <\/p>\n<p>Zebra had it&#8217;s launch on Monday. It&#8217;s a boutique run by a friend of mine, Olivia, and specialises in affordable high fashion for both women and men. They have a beautiful range of stuff, including that of Harlow &#038; Harvey, as designed by Sarah O&#8217;Neill. You&#8217;ve seen work from her on this blog already. There was a fashion show as part of the opening, including modeling by a shy gang of her friends. There&#8217;s a catwalk built is as part of the shop fit, but backgrounds are a little cluttered, with TV&#8217;s, pipes and trussing visible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/87022221@N00\/4133316725\" title=\"View 'Zebra_231109_039' on Flickr.com\"><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2614\/4133316725_572221fa29.jpg\" alt=\"Zebra_231109_039\" border=\"0\" width=\"334\" height=\"500\" \/><\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sunday was the most recent Galway Strobist meetup, held in The Quays. Due to illness and work 2 models cancelled, but we still had 2 models, and I had 2 &#8216;Movember&#8217; portraits also. Movember is a campaign to raise awareness for prostate cancer and depression, by getting sponsorship for growing a mustache. Pauric and Keith were good enough to pose with their &#8216;ronnies&#8217;. <\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/87022221@N00\/4130009163\" title=\"View 'Pauric' on Flickr.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2542\/4130009163_d0fa0afc12_m.jpg\" alt=\"Pauric\" border=\"0\" width=\"160\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/87022221@N00\/4129982709\" title=\"View 'Keith' on Flickr.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2503\/4129982709_65314b9b8d_m.jpg\" alt=\"Keith\" border=\"0\" width=\"160\" height=\"240\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>I&#8217;ve still to get to the shots of Liz and Alex, the 2 models for the afternoon. Shortly, when I get a bit of time.<\/p>\n<p>This week, I&#8217;m also writing my first Lightroom article for Pro Photo <a href=\"http:\/\/www.prophotoresource.com\/\">Resource<\/a>. I had something mostly done, but decided to ease into it instead, so began again. That&#8217;ll be out next month. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m working on a new Web Plugin for Lightroom, should have a 1.0 version soon. You can see how it looks in my new Landscapes website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.skywaterland.com\/\">Sky Water Land<\/a>. Obviously I&#8217;ve been tweaking the plugin as I go, but now need to finalise and write the dreaded User Guide. I should just do a wiki!<br \/>\nSpeaking of web plugins, I&#8217;ve redone LRB Portfolio 2.4 about 3 times thanks to overwritten and missing code. I&#8217;m currently trying out Cornerstone to help solve this problem, which has happened before. 2.4 should be out soon too, again when the User Guide has been updated. <\/p>\n<p>On the sound front, The Wailers gig has just been moved to the Roisin Dubh from the Radisson. This means I have to get additional sound equipment booked and sorted before Saturday. It&#8217;s a large band with a lot of monitor requirements, so fingers crossed I get it all sorted! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71,75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1616","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-photo-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1616","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1616"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1616\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1616"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1616"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1616"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
