The Truman Show was filmed in the town of Seaside in Florida way back in 1998. Feeling old now? This is the house where they filmed interior shots of Truman’s home. You’ll recognise scenes from the film if you visit the town, but trees and bushes are a bit more overgrown now. Anyway, Automattic went [...]

Frosty morning in Blarney
Filed in Black and White, Blarney, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanAnother frosty morning in Blarney, County Cork. I’m glad I work from home. The roads are deadly now. Snow fell in Dublin yesterday and the city practically came to a stand still. It hasn’t snowed in Blarney yet but the roads have been bad. We had a Christmas Day adventure when the car didn’t make [...]

Derelict and red brick
Filed in Architecture, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanA long unused, derelict and run down red brick building on the Old Youghal Road. This was shot last September, first time I’d been up around this area in a few years. Nothing much had changed in all those years.

Storm clouds over Spanish Point

Reflections on Kinsale
Filed in Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, Kinsale, Landscape, Photography, Photos, Sea, Sigma 18-200, Urban, WaterIf you walk along the quay in Kinsale, Co Cork and glance across the harbour you’ll see the houses above. I’ve always wondered who lives over there and what do they think of the busy tourist town across the water.

Public Seating
Filed in Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 40D, Houses, Photography, Photos, United Kingdom, UrbanPlastic seats outside a house, near yesterday’s home I think. We went for a walk this evening by the reservoir in Inniscarra and I got some nice shots of my family and of the setting sun over the water. Unfortunately when I got home a number of shots were corrupted. I’m not sure why or [...]

My Home from Home
Filed in Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 40D, Houses, Photography, Photos, Street, United Kingdom, UrbanWhat do you do when you get home from holiday? Put a clamp on the wheels of your caravan! I could make a joke about cleaning the wheels of their home, but that’s an obvious one and I’m in a hurry tonight. Got a surprise birthday party to go to soon! Shot somewhere near Slough [...]

Tigh Mor ar Oilean Chleire
Filed in Architecture, Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, PhotosWhen you walk up one of the hills from the North Harbour in Cape Clear Island you’ll walk past this house at the top of the incline. It’s been there forever, and 15 years ago, the back of the house was a small shop selling sweets and other goodies. It’s a B&B now I think, [...]
