I always the this bridge as “The Viaduct”, but it’s actually named the Chetwynd Viaduct. Here’s the view from a my flight home a few weeks as it came in to land at Cork Airport.

Cobh in Black and White
Filed in Black and White, Cork, Everything, Ireland, People, Photography, Street, UrbanA dump of the b/w images I shot in Cobh over the weekend. It was a strictly “stroll around and do nothing” day (so sorry Conor for not calling in!) as Adam was being minded by my sister. As I said a few days ago, I shot everything in black and white and I’m pleased [...]

Soiree
Filed in Black and White, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, Urban–noun an evening party or social gathering, esp. one held for a particular purpose: a musical soiree. (source) The first time I heard anyone use the word “soiree” was when my wife’s friend spoke about organising a party at her home. My wife uses it too. Must be posh, I married well!

Dominoes or Four Star Pizza?
Filed in Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Photography, Photos, Sigma 10-20, Street, Urban, Washington StreetSo, who’s for pizza? I’m quite partial to Dominoes Pizzas but to be honest I haven’t had a pizza from either establishment in quite a while. Odd that both premises are on Washington Street and almost directly across from each other. Makes “shopping around” easier, not that you’d be bothered. Pizza is horribly priced wherever [...]
