Railway Tunnel
Filed in Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, PhotosA tunnel under the railway line between Cork and Mallow that eventually ends up in “the big smoke”, Dublin (Only ever heard Dublin people refer to Dublin by that name..)

No. 20, Bantry
Filed in Architecture, Bantry, Black and White, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Cork, Houses, Ireland, Photos, UrbanNo. 20, Bantry I walked around Bantry 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.

Filed in Candid, Canon 20D, Dingle, Ireland, Kerry, Landscape, People, Photos, Sigma 10-20, Sky, WaterSunshine on the Conor Pass This will probably be the final photo from that September 2006 visit to the Conor Pass. It’s taken earlier than some of the others but I’m a sucker for leading lines so it had to go in! I love the reflection in the water on the valley floor, and the [...]

I can hardly see myself
Filed in Canon 20D, Dingle, Fog, Ireland, Kerry, Photos, Sigma 10-20, VehiclesI can hardly see myself As I said previously, thick fog was rolling across the Conor Pass. It was frightening how fast it moved and the light and scene changed utterly. Here’s it’s obscuring the road down the Pass, making the too-narrow road even more treacherous. I think by the time we left, even this [...]
