The Star of David, Dollar signs, the Masonic eye, Christian Cross and a symbol I (and Google Goggles) don’t recognise. All on a sticker in the Church of Hallgrimur, Reykjavik, Iceland. In the church tower there’s a door leading from the observation area into the warmth inside. This sticker is over that door. Stranger yet [...]
Symbols of the World
Filed in Canon 40D, Iceland, Photography, Photos, Reykjavik, Sigma 18-200, Signs, UrbanSt Mary’s Cathedral, Killarney
Filed in Black and White, Canon 40D, Ireland, Kerry, Killarney, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanSt Mary’s Cathedral, Killarney in the background. We walked around the town a few weeks back but I didn’t have time to get down to the Cathedral this time. Still impressive, even from this distance. I wonder if “Tim O’Brien & Sons Furniture Carpets” is online anywhere?
Cross in the Roof
Filed in Architecture, Black and White, Canada, Canon 40D, Photography, Photos, Sigma 10-20Another (and final) shot of the roof in the Sanctuaire de Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré in Quebec, Canada. I will post more from this church but this is the final shot of the main roof. Love the intricate design.
Look up at the roof
Filed in Black and White, Canon 40D, Photography, Photos, Sigma 10-20The ceiling of the Sanctuaire de Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré in Quebec is quite a sight.

The 2 second [...]
Sanctuaire de Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré
Filed in Canon 40D, Photography, Photos, Sigma 10-20, UrbanThe Saint Anne-de-Beaupré Basilica in Quebec is an imposing but beautiful building. It’s surrounded by flat river side countryside and low lying buildings so it really stands out. Got lots more photos from inside, hopefully to be posted over the next few days.

The town of Killeagh in County Cork has a beautiful Catholic Church at one of main street. A neat garden surrounds the building and it’s an eye catching sight for anyone passing through the town. According to a stone embedded in the church wall, it was completed in 1792. While researching this post I stumbled [...]
The clock tower of St. Anne’s Church in Shandon is more well known as “Shandon Bells” after the bells that ring out there through out the day. We were so lucky with the weather on Saturday on our little photowalk. Wasn’t it Aidan‘s idea to head up to Shandon? Inspired! Everyone had a great time. [...]
Steps to a church in Castletownbere, Co Cork. I tried finding out more about this church but any attempt to find info on it returns this church I blogged a while back. Anyone know it’s name?
