Tellus Project

Filming in Leitrim last week. We’re producing a feature report on the Tellus Project for the Nationwide programme. The Tellus Border geochemical survey is currently underway in counties Sligo, Leitrim and Donegal. Teams of samplers are working across the area, collecting samples from small streams and rivers. These samples of the water, vegetation and sediment from the stream bed will be chemically analysed for a range of elements.

Windy Cliffs of Moher!

On the road today. Left home at 5.30am to drive to the Cliffs of Moher in County Clare, where I’m shooting a special programme for RTE. Weather closed in quite a bit during the day it was windy and misty. Could have been worse. We’re also editing the programme which will be transmitted on Wednesday, so it’s straight back home tonight to begin editing. Quick turnaround! (Image: http://allirelandtravel.blogspot.com)

Nationwide in Derry

Shooting a series of links in Burtonport & Derry for RTE’s Nationwide programme, with Mary Kennedy. Very stormy in Burtonport, but we managed to find a sheltered spot. Then onto Derry, my first time filming on the Peace Bridge. (Image: http://sluggerotoole.com)
