A man and a blank mural
In contrast to the photo yesterday of the same bench in 2015 when a mural appeared on the wall, this photo from July 2019 features a blank wall. An elderly man, with his walker sits on the same bench. I hope he made it through the COVID pandemic. Aperture ƒ/4 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 16mm…

Surrounded by the sights of Cork
I wonder if this man checking his phone noticed the mural behind him in Bishop Lucey Park. In this fragment of the mural you can see the old Roches Stores building, Mangan’s Clock and Shandon Bells. You won’t see that mural there now. This is a snapshot of it from 2015. Aperture ƒ/6.3 Camera Canon…

A Masked Break
At the height (one of them, anyway) of the COVID19 pandemic in July 2020, someone takes a break on the street. He still wears his mask, despite being outside and nowhere near anyone. Numbers of COVID19 infections are rising again, unfortunately. Schools are back after the summer. It’s so depressing. Aperture ƒ/2.4 Camera SM-G965F Focal…
