The Taoiseach needs a new photographer or website editor  or both! I was looking for contact information for the Chief Whip’s office earlier and was questioning my eyesight and reaching for my lenses cloth.

There are three photos on the front page of the Department of the Taoiseach’s  site today (screencap) including one where Mr. Cowen meets the Vietnamese deputy prime minister

and this one of him meeting the Belgian Prime Minister where well it was unfortunate the shutter stopped there and that it was taken by someone seemingly prostrate before the leaders.

They are out of focus, stretched across the page and well they hardly the most photogenic images of the leader of the nation are they?

And I’m not a website designer but isn’t the site over all just terrible?
