Bóthar an Uisce
Bóthar an Uisce, or River Lane, in Dingle is on a junction with Dykegate Street where my favourite café in the town sits. Thyme Out Café & Delicatessen (Google Maps) is in a lovely old building serving vegetarian and vegan food. Brenda makes an amazing breakfast burrito, and her delux baguette is delicious! Yes, of…
The Sweet Pea Cat
I’m 99% certain I took a photo of this cat a few years ago and published it here but I cannot find it. The original photo was shot as we walked past at night and the cat was asleep in the window, just above the painting on the wall so it’s memorable. If I find…
Fog rolls into the Conor Pass
It was a beautiful evening in Dingle. Light clouds in the distance promised a fantastic sunset. I decided to head to Stradbally Beach to the north of the town but time was running out. Up and down the Conor Pass and as I drove along the road I saw clouds rolls in off the sea…
Around And Around We Go
The Spin City Funfair visits Dingle during the summer months and features the “Star Flyer” where participants are raised about 40m into the air before twirling them around and and around. No way will you get me on something like that! I’ll happily take photos of it though.
Tied up at Dingle Harbour
Moments after the sun set over the Dingle Peninsula I went for a walk and captured this HDR panorama of Dingle Harbour from the pier there. The sky was mostly clear but there was a well placed cloud sitting just above the hills to catch the light of the already disappeared sun.
Castlegregory Beach
Sand that goes on for miles and miles so it’s easy to find a spot for your towel. Lovely beach and the water is warm!
Night Falls on Dingle
The long Summer evenings eventually turn dark, but clear skies remain bright for hours after sunset. Texaco Dingle, where petrol is €1.559/lt.
Right next to Wine Strand
If you go down to Wine Strand on the Dingle Peninsula but go straight ahead instead of turning right you’ll come across another beach. Lovely to walk on but I heard that it can be dangerous to swim there because of the local currents.
Coumeenole Beach
Can’t go to Dingle without going to Coumeenole Beach. Haven’t ever swam there but it’s a lovely spot.
Take a Break
When you need to rest you’ll take it anywhere. Dingle, Co Kerry two weeks ago.
Setting Sun over Dingle
The setting sun lit up clouds over the local hills of the Dingle Peninsula earlier this month.
Light Escapes from Lockers
Light escaping from lockers in the secondary school in Blarney. February 2020, just before Ireland locked down.
