19 November 2009 - Abandoned Dingle Trawler
Right on the pier in Dingle are two trawlers that are slowly falling to pieces. The one pictured above is severely burned, windows burned out and broken. Moss grows on the deck amid the rubbish.
I can’t believe it’s still there. It was there last year when we visited, and may even have been there the time before that!
18 November 2009 - Bike Park
The bike park on Patrick’s Street, Cork.
17 November 2009 - Director’s Cut
First of all Virgin Megastore was sold off to Zavvi and shortly afterwards they had a liquidation sale and went under. Now Director’s Cut are in there and it’s a depressing store. There’s no piped music to liven the dead atmosphere, oh dear!
16 November 2009 - Pub of the year for sale
The Woodford on Patrick’s Street Cork closed some time ago. Shame really as it was a nice pub.
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.
14 November 2009 - Fencing out the Atlantic
A fence on the road on Slea Head in County Kerry. The waters of the Atlantic lie just beyond.
12 November 2009 - Old Wood and Yellow
The gorgeous Autumn colours contrast with the dark and rough texture of the old wood of a fence.
Shot in Quebec of course.
7 November 2009 - Moderne Lighting
Light trails along Patrick’s Street in Cork.
27 October 2009 - Bird’s eye view of Montmorency Falls
Montmorency Falls in Quebec, as seen from the top of the nearby hill. Lots of steps to walk up!
PS. In unrelated news, I received the following email from Siobhán Duggan:
Hi Donncha,
while doing some research on the lough recently I came across your blog regarding a Lough Photography day you organised last year. You may be aware of the diminishing population of wildlife in the Lough over the past few months. I am part of a voluntary organisation called JCI Cork (junior chamber international) and as a group we have decided to fundraise for the Lough by holding a table quiz in the Hawthorn Bar near the Lough. I have attached a flyer that you might please send to some of your colleagues that may be interested in supporting the Lough by taking a table on the night (Friday November 6th). Business in the area have been very supportive by giving prizes for the raffle and for the winners on the night so it should be a great night as well as raising money for a much loved amenity,Kind Regards,
Siobhán
Email them at cork @jci-ireland.org (remove the space before the @) if you’re interested in going. A table of 4 costs 40 Euro. I don’t think I’ll be going (baby sitters, etc to organise) but it should be a good night!
23 October 2009 - Cross in the Roof
Another (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.
