The Bike at the Library

Posted on 03 July 2007

Cork City Library on the Grand Parade used to have railings in front for locking up your bike. Those railings disappeared a few months ago but people still leave their bikes there.

The library itself will soon be the subject of a major facelift as a developer expands it into a new block of retail units and apartments as well as library.

Great shot. The hint of desaturated red on the bike is a nice touch. And I really like how the circular wheels of the bike contrast all of the straight edges of the building.
