The Spire of Dublin
The "Monument of Light" is a large stainless steel spire located at the heart of Dublin. It reaches 121.2 meters (397.6 ft) into the sky on a 3m (9.8 ft) diameter base and can be seen from all of Dublin. Its basically a big needle in the sky.
Guinness Brewery Tour
While traveling to Ireland I was lucky enough to have some time to swing into the local brewery in Dublin.. Guinness.. you may have heard of them. They have a very impressive facility with state of the art displays that give you the story behind the beer. They do all this while you wind your way up a 5 story pint glass.. and when you get to the top you get a magnificent view of Dublin and your well deserved Guinness. It was mighty delicious, I wasn't even fast enough to take a shot of mine full. Went down quick, like chocolate cake! Great experience so if you are ever in Dublin Ireland be sure to swing by for a pint, and don't worry they have an elevator.
Wrong way dude!

The Irish Castles
Took a trip across the pond to Ireland in May. I was naturally drawn to the Castles, but have to say that Ireland was one of the more beautiful places I've been. Not to mention the nicest people I've ever encountered abroad.
I took way to many pictures as always and am still working on them when I get time.
Here's a teaser..

Yampa
The newest addition to our family. Yampa.. with a face like that who needs sleep.. or clean carpet.
Kansas Wheat Harvest
the drive down interstate 70 can be a mind numbing 6 hours.. unless its mid summer and the wheat harvest is in full swing.. throw in some epic clouds and its like driving through a painting...
High Flying at the Steamboat Springs Rodeo
I was a first timer at the Rodeo and I'm sure I didn't stick out with the telephoto lens.. Glad I had it, got a few good ones.
I was secretly cheering for the Bronco.. he won.

Nike Chicago Marathon
Got to shoot good ole Niketown and the Nike expo at McCormick Place in Chicago for the Chicago Marathon last fall. They had some great displays, and a great booth.
Sperry Topsider Store | Kansas City
Sperry Topsiders opened up a new store on the Country Club Plaza in Kansas City and I was lucky enough to get to shoot it. I was blown away by the selection of shoes, I thought they only did the standard boat shoes, but they had quite the selection from dress to boat to sneakers to sandals. If you're around the Plaza I'd recommend checking it out.
Casa Mila | Antoni Gaudi
Casa Mila is one of Gaudis more prominent works in Barcelona I was totally blown away by the unique rooftop Architecture of this building located on the Passeig de Gracia. When you step on the roof you feel almost if you're in a foreign world, and to imagine construction of the building was completed in 1912.

Gaudi Sidewalk Tiles | Barcelona Spain
Barcelona was the last stop on my semi recent trip to Europe... Its taken me way to long to get through these images, and I'm not even close to done. But thought I would throw a few up to share.
These tiles were really beautiful, they interlock with each other to create an endless patter, but the design of each is identically the same!

A Snow Covered Kansas
The rows of wheat filled with snow were a rather visually interested subject on a recent road trip through Kansas. Its not a typical scene for western Kansas and made the trip much more enjoyable.
Gardens of Versailles
A couple random shots from the Gardens at the Palace of Versailles in Paris France. I shot a lot that morning.. we got there before the ticket office opened and got into the garden for free. By the time we were done and wanted to go in the line was 2+ hours and we ended up heading back to Paris to see the Arch de Triopmhe.
Website Update
Check out the New and Improved mrobinsonphoto.com! New Work and a New Look!

iPhone Photos | Steamboat CO
Was fortunate enough to get to go skiing over the New Years break in beautiful Steamboat CO.. Got a few good snapshots with the phone.
This is Loveland Pass.. just exited the Eisenhower Tunnel on I-70...
I call this Sun Ring.. there was a fine trace of snow in the air that produced a ring around the sun..
Stockholm Sweden
So I've been really bad about updating.. it only means I've been busy working on photographs and traveling a bit.. as you might have guessed from my last post I've been across the pond. Here are a couple from Stockholm Sweden. A truly beautiful city! Our favorite part was walking the streets of Gamla Stan, the old City. More to come...
Polaroids from Paris
Sorry its been so long since my last post, I've been traveling. Shot these with my iPhone on a recent trip to Paris.. There will be many more images to come(from Sweden, Paris and Barcelona), but thought I would start with these.
The Louvre was hands down the best are museum I've ever seen, and arguable the best in the world I'm sure. Thats it for now... back to editing.
Fish Creek
Took this at Fish Creek in Steamboat Springs over the 4th of July. I've successfully transferred the technique of time lapse photography in to the digital age. This was kind of a test, can't wait to do some more!
St Louis Magazine @ Home
Shot a beautiful home for St Louis Magazine @ Home. It was featured in the February issue. You can see more of the images in the new Website Update..
HOME
This is a video I thought I'd share, its about an hour and half so it will take some time when/if you have it. It was a great film with amazing cinematography. It's one of the best environmental pieces I've seen and it really illustrated just how divine and connected all life is. You really get a better understanding for the imbalances that exist because of human activity. Just like all nature conservatory/environmental pieces there are some not so pretty parts.. but this one has a very optimistic period on its end that I enjoyed, hope you do too.
Sprint Studio KC
Shot the Sprint Studio in Kansas City this winter for Continuum. Its a little wintry for spring but thought I'd share it anyway.
Somethings Off
I was in Chicago a while back for a shoot. I was killing some time walking around the south loop when something caught my eye.. It just seemed a bit off to me, at least I knew where the ATM was.
Puerto Vallarta!
Was lucky enough to make it down to Puerto Vallarta this winter to warm up and shoot a Villa along the way. Snapped these while I was there. The Oceanscape was the view from my room. The other two were snapped as I was strolling around. Can't wait to go back!
