There’s rough ground next to the Opera House in Reykjavik, Iceland and what looks like reclaimation efforts nearby. This excavator, shovel and anchor are just left there next to parked cars. The snow covers the dark volcanic earth.

Derelict Reykjavik Highrises
Filed in Architecture, Iceland, Photography, Photos, Reykjavik, Sky, Urban, VehiclesWhat I’ve seen of Reykjavik so far has been really nice. Buildings are colourful, the streets are for the most part well maintained and the city centre has cobbled streets so it’s pleasant to walk around. While on our photowalk today we passed these buildings on the sea front. I thought they were just another [...]
One Eye Oscar!
Filed in Animals, Black and White, Blarney, Canon 40D, Dogs, Ireland, Nature, Photography, Photos, UrbanShih Tzu dogs need a lot of grooming and Oscar is no exception. This is him in the snow on Christmas Day last year. Good thing he had all that fur as it was freezing!
Snowing in Blarney
Filed in Blarney, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanIt snowed in Blarney today. First snow of the season fell 2 days ago but was barely a few flakes that fell overnight. Today’s snow covered the area in a blank of white, but thankfully didn’t last too long! Roads are still affected and unfortunately there’s a steep hill coming into my estate.
The Snow Dog
Filed in Blarney, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanOscar our Shih Tzu is as comfortable in snow as he is in any other extreme weather. He’d rather be indoors in the warmth! It snowed heavily and steadily today in Blarney. We took Adam out in it after wrapping him up warm and he played with the kids down the road, throwing snow around, [...]
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 [...]
Yellow daffodils at the end of my road, captured while the snow settled in the grass.
A lonely daffodil bent down by the cold and snow a week ago in Blarney. Taken very close to the Daffodils in the Snow shot I posted that morning. Love the tiny water droplets on the stem of the flower. It was a toss up between this image and the one I posted previously for [...]
Daffodils struggle against the cold and snow in Blarney this morning. Many parts of the country were covered in a white blanket. Snow is still falling. My son loves it of course. We spent 10 minutes in the back garden throwing snow around and I got some great photos! If you’re in Dublin on St. [...]
