Under a Turkish Sky
We visited the Çamlıca Tepesi yl (Çamlıca Hill) in Istanbul last week. It’s a hill on the eastern side of the city. There is a huge Turkish flag flying from a massively tall flagpole, and you can see out over the Asian side of the city from the nearby park. The city just seems to…

A Splash of Colour
This is the sort of contrasts you’ll see in Cork City during the Jazz weekend. Loads of people dressed to go out for the night, surrounded by shoppers and families dressed for a late October day. The music on the street was great! Aperture ƒ/2.8 Camera ILCE-7RM5 Focal length 24mm ISO 160 Shutter speed 1/500s

The water under our feet
Some people were surprised to find there was a large covered over tunnel below Grand Parade when the Cork Main Drainage Scheme dug up the road near Daunt Square in 2005. The street used to be part of the river, so I guess the water had to go somewhere, but it also highlights just how…

A mirror of a mural
What caught my eye when I saw this in front of me in Bishop Lucey Park, was the man leaning against the railing seemed to mirror the pose of the figure in the large mural on the wall. The park itself is closed off now. This is a picture of a bygone era. Can’t wait…
