“This lads, is a hurly, used in the Irish game of hurling, a cross between hockey and murder.”

I decided to do a side-by-side of this one. I’m working on the hurling club recruitment poster, and since I couldn’t find the kind of image I was looking for online—at least not without copyright restrictions—I had to take it myself. Of course, it was 4:50 pm in January in Minnesota on a day that barely got above 0 degrees F, so the lighting was bad, the grass was brown, and I had to find a spot under a tree to get as little snow in the shot as possible.

On the left is the original, unedited photo. On the right is the post-Photoshop photo: greened up, depth and dimension added with the shadow, snow removed.

Isn’t my hurley a thing of beauty? I should buy a new one to play with and just keep this one as art, it’s so pretty.

Major difference between the GAA and football players…

Well, that, and the fact that players in the GAA play for free.

Engine Yard came to us recently with a fun laser-etching project. They recently acquired another company, and were looking to use these hurling sticks as a way to represent the two companies coming together. Read more about what we did in our blog post »
