Everyday Legend
I am Legend.
Potted Flowers
Flowers in a garden centre, probably the one out in Inniscarra. In the new year I’m sorely tempted to change the posting frequency on this blog from daily to every third day. Blogging should bring pleasure and be a means of expressing oneself while stimulating your audience and improving oneself. I have so little time…
Bars Bars Bars
Supporting bars criss cross the arm of a crane on Cork’s Docklands in 2005. Probably the same crane I posted a few days ago.
Endangered Species
Not so long ago these metal edifices defined the skyline in Cork and other Irish cities. They’re all gone in Cork now, but there’s still one left in Killarney, County Kerry. I hear tourists are taking photos of them now..
F211 – Fregatte Köln
The Fregatte Köln docked in Cork Harbour in 2005. Glorious day for a photowalk!
Priestman
Priestman are, or at least were, a brand of crane and excavator manufactured up until possibly the late 1990s. They have a long history according to this page. I found the logo above on a crane on the docks in Cork Harbour back in 2005. It’s probably still there! The Priestman story began when William…
Lots of Heineken
Heineken. ’nuff said!
Sean O Connor’s Dental Laboratory
I never noticed this sign for a dental laboratory on Castle Street before. Maybe it’s the large gaping hole in the streetscape next to it that caught my eye? It must be a really old sign, that phone number had a “4” prefix added to it many years ago.
Derelict and red brick
A long unused, derelict and run down red brick building on the Old Youghal Road. This was shot last September, first time I’d been up around this area in a few years. Nothing much had changed in all those years.
Unlock the Church
The side gate to SS Peter and Paul’s Church in Cork City remains open during the day.
CELTIC FIShER
The Celtic Fisher, out of Tralee, was docked in Dingle Harbour in early November.
St Mary’s Cathedral, Killarney
St Mary’s Cathedral, Killarney in the background. We walked around the town a few weeks back but I didn’t have time to get down to the Cathedral this time. Still impressive, even from this distance. I wonder if “Tim O’Brien & Sons Furniture Carpets” is online anywhere?
