My First Public Photographic Event

My friend asked me would i take some pictures at his ordination on Sunday in St Patrick’s Cathedral, Armagh, as he became one of the first Permanent Deacons in Ireland. I wasn’t sure I was up for the task, but because he asked me, I gave it a go. I guess it's much like a wedding, but you are dealing with a formal institution instead of a bride.

I have posted a blog post of my initial thoughts:

Here is a link to a set of photos from the day if you would like to see how how I got on?
