15 November 2009 - Slea Head Statues
There’s a statue of Christ and associated figures on the cross at the top of Slea Head in County Kerry. I’m not sure who erected them but they’re a prominent part of the headland there.

Irish countryside through the clouds.
6 November 2009 - Flying back to Cork
On the way home from Quebec I flew to Heathrow first, before hopping back home via Aer Lingus to Cork. I’m pretty sure this was over the UK somewhere, but really, it could just as easily have been the south coast of Ireland too.
2 November 2009 - Take off from Quebec Airport
Quebec Airport has all you might need: free wifi, free power at some seats and even a children’s toy area for the kids to play in! Nice sunset too! 
A lone kite surfer flies through the water at Garrettstown Beach in County Cork a few weeks ago.
Last weekend with the good weather the beach was packed, but we were there when it was cold, rain drizzled, and a cold wind whipped up the fine sand everywhere. Place was deserted.
I like this photo. Made the trip worthwhile!
Clouds hang over Cork University Maternity Hospital.
8 September 2009 - Chemtrails and Clouds and Evening Sky
I’ve already covered the chemtrails conspiracy but they’re such a frequent and visible part of the sky that I have to shoot them sometimes.
This was taken in Blarney, the trail is from a high flying plane going west to the USA.
Arrangements for the photowalk on the 26th are surging ahead. Pat got in touch to say we can shoot from the roof of the Montenotte Hotel where we meet. The speedboat is organised (max 4 passengers but I won’t be going, stomach is still feeling fragile!) and then a complementary lunch for all photowalkers in the Boardwalk Bar & Grill around noon. See the photowalk post if you’re interested in staying in the hotel on the previous night.
Should be the best photowalk yet!
It’s odd sometimes when you’re traveling through the towns of Ireland and you come across the remnants of the Celtic Tiger, usually newly built and empty office buildings.
This is one such building, near the waterfront in the town of Kilrush in County Clare. It faces on to a broad street but all the other buildings are more traditional ones. This glass fronted edifice looked very empty on the day we walked past.
27 July 2009 - Crosshaven on the water
The town of Crosshaven in County Cork as seen from across the water.
Lots of photos uploaded to the photowalk homepage. I have to judge a winner in the next few days..
5 July 2009 - Little Fluffy Clouds
Clouds drift over the River Lee across from Blackrock Village about a week ago.
I’m trying out the preview of Bibble 5 Pro at the moment. Great DAM features, although it is starting to slow down after importing about 90,000 images and it’s reading from an external USB 2.0 drive.
