Kennedy Quay Panorama
Kennedy Quay in Cork in February 2024 before the R&H Hall building was demolished. Look to the right, and you’ll see Albert Quay and the new buildings there. This whole area will look quite different in only a few years. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 32mm ISO 100 Shutter speed 1/25s
