Two days of unbroken Cork sunshine had to end somewhere, and they ended like this. I was in the posh Dunnes in Bishopstown and when I came out the sunny sky became a brooding wall of cloud piling up overhead just as a jet lifted off.

From the ground it looked tiny, but that’s distance playing tricks; it’s almost certainly a 737, already well into its climb and dwarfed by a sky that had spent 48 hours stewing in the heat and finally decided it had had enough. I watched it pick along the edge of the dark stuff before slipping into the brighter side. Got the shot, the rain started before we got to the car with the shopping.

The heatwave was officially over, thankfully.
