The infamous Dublin Spire with a tour bus in the foreground.

"The Dublin Spire is one hundred and twenty metres tall, making it by far the tallest structure in Dublin city centre. It is three metres wide at the base and tapers to a 15 centimetre wide beacon at the top. The top section is perforated and lit by small LEDs."

excellent as always. Want to add this to the Dublin Blog Group?
Really great shot.It has everything and it looks like the spire is growing out of the top of the bus.You even got the sun and the blue sky in.... very well done.
brilliant shot. could you tell us what type of lense you used? :-)
It's shot with a wide angle Sigma 10-20mm lens. No way could you get 120m of a tower from across the street otherwise :)
