Cobh Lights Up for St. Patrick’s Night

Photo of a spectacular fireworks display over Cobh harbour at night, with bursts of green, red, blue, and white light cascading above the town's illuminated waterfront. The fireworks and town lights reflect vividly in the still water of Cork Harbour. The spire of St Colman's Cathedral is visible among the lit buildings on the hillside.

Cobh put on a cracker of a display tonight with fireworks over the harbour. We headed across to the Haulbowline Island Recreational Park to photograph the show and we weren’t disappointed.

However, the barge launching the fireworks drifted further along the water than anyone expected, which meant a scramble to reframe shots and swing tripods mid-display. I’d love to know how it looked from the Cobh side. Usually the barge loops back and forth in a fairly tight arc, but this time it had other ideas and kept wandering off down the harbour!
