Description of Pictures: Special Features: Dec 2 screening features introduction by Paddy Meskell, Solas Nua Chairman of the Board, and post-screening reception sponsored by the Embassy of Ireland
2018 Oscar® Selection, Ireland This poetic, hybrid exploration of the life of legendary sean nós singer Joe Heaney mixes narrative elements with performance footage that goes beyond the traditional music documentary and touches on Ireland's past and present. Filmed lovingly in black and white, the striking imagery of Connemara and Ireland's west coast, and the people of the land anchor this lyrical look at the life of Heaney, the master of sean nós (traditional, unaccompanied singing). The film also features performances from some of the most renowned sean nós singers of today and the artists inspired by Heaney's work and legacy. Official Selection, 2017 South by Southwest, Karlovy Vary film festivals. DIR/SCR Pat Collins; SCR Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhride, Sharon Whooley; PROD Jessie Fisk, Alan Maher. Ireland/Canda, 2017, b&w, 104 min. In English and Irish with English subtitles. NOT RATED Co-presented with Solas Nua and the Capital Irish Film Festival.
The evening also featured Daniel Mulhall, Ireland's ambassador to the United States.

2017 photos: Overnight trips this year: Civil War Trust conferences in Pensacola, FL, Chattanooga, TN (via sites in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee) and Fredericksburg, VA, a family reunion in The Dells, Wisconsin (via sites in Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin), New York City, and my 12th consecutive San Diego Comic Con trip (including sites in Arizona). Ego strokes: For some reason, several of my photos have been published in physical books this year which is pretty cool. Ones that I know about: "Tarzan, Jungle King of Popular Culture" (David Lemmo), "The Great Crusade: A Guide to World War I American Expeditionary Forces Battlefields and Sites" (Stephen T. Powers and Kevin Dennehy), "The American Spirit" (David McCullough), "Civil War Battlefields: Walking the Trails of History" (David T. Gilbert), "The Year I Was Peter the Great: 1956 — Khrushchev, Stalin's Ghost, and a Young American in Russia" (Marvin Kalb), and "The Judge: 26 Machiavellian Lessons" (Ron Collins and David Skover). Equipment this year: I continued to use my Fuji XS-1 cameras but, depending on the event, I also used a Nikon D7000. Number of photos taken this year: just below 560,000.
