No. 20, Bantry

Friday, March 28th, 2008 by Donncha

I walked around Town a bit snapping the local streets and this house appealed to me. I think I saw it in b/w and the lovely texture of the walls.

It could also have been the hill and I wanted a small break from pushing the buggy around too of course.

A winds into the north of . Yesterday’s photo of the Bantry hills was taken just up the from here!

I joined Red Bubble yesterday and sold a photo already, although I think it was Pete who bought it as I emailed him last night about it. Nice selection of presentation methods too. Cool.

I can hardly see myself

Thursday, February 28th, 2008 by Donncha

As I said previously, thick was rolling across the . It was frightening how fast it moved and the light and scene changed utterly.

Here’s it’s obscuring the down the Pass, making the too-narrow even more treacherous. I think by the time we left, even this stretch of and the car park was covered in a thick white .

Don’t forget! If you’re around on March 9th, head to the Lough for 3pm. I’m planning a photowalk around The Lough and all are welcome!

Slow down in 2008

Friday, January 4th, 2008 by Donncha

I’m going to slow down this year. I’ve been trying to keep up with everyone else, moving without thinking, on auto pilot sometimes.

I blog too fast. There! I’ve said it. I tried to post here, to Holy Shmoly!, to The Funny Video Blog every day but there’s only so much one man can do.

Instead, this blog will of course be updated every day, Holy Shmoly will be updated at most 3 times a week, and I’ll try to post one funny video a week.

Then I’ll have time to play with my son, watch him discover the world and enjoy the great times.

Ryan - thank you for the recommendation and a happy new year to you too!

Irish Adult Store

Thursday, December 6th, 2007 by Donncha

There are I think 3 adult stores in . Two are down by Parnell Place, or at least they were, and the other is pictured above!

One of the adult stores in is down a small, narrow little called . The is so small that it doesn’t even appear on Google Maps. It does show on Yahoo Maps but you’d be forgiven if you never noticed it before.

This was shot from the Grand Parade multi-storey car park which backs onto the . I was really happy to get the flashing neon sign while it was illuminated!

The Sony repair centre is just across the from the store, the only reason I’ve ever gone down there, when I tried to get my Sony 717 repaired.

No, before you ask, I’ve never darkened the doorway of any of those shops!
