All the fun of the Ceili Mor
Posted on 12 September 2006
The Ceili Mor on St. Patrick’s Street, Cork, last weekend. Last year the Ceili Mor attracted 8,371 people who broke the world record for the largest Irish dancing event!
This year was a more modest event but still the people showed up and joined in, slowly at first, but there was a decent crowd out enjoying themselves later!
Photos from last year: part 1 and part 2.
I forgot to mention. I saw so many people with cameras that I’m surprised there aren’t a lot more Cork-based photoblogs. I’m not talking about parents with a compact camera and kids in tow, I counted at least 5 solitary people silently working the crowd and the dancers with everything from bridge cameras to Digital SLRs and zoom lenses. I really need to get business cards printed and spread the word about WordPress.com

This scene looks quite similar to the street fair that was held in the next county over last weekend. Saturday night is reserved for a big dance on the street in front of a live band that lasts for hours.
Nice use of your wide angle lens. Expansive.
i like the photo very much (-:
