Waves crash at Allihies
Allihies Beach on a cold February afternoon. Waves crash on the beach. It was bitterly cold and windy that day but well worth the trip.
The Gentleman Clown
Yes, yes, we’re clowning around! Here’s the tall gent from the Circo Copa demonstration in Fitzgerald’s Park a while back. I wonder if he’ll ever see this. The put on a great show that day! Thanks for all the nice comments on yesterday’s post about Michelle. They’re very much appreciated.
Saying Goodbye to Michelle
Michelle was my wife Jacinta’s family cat for the last 14 years. When I say “family cat”, I of course mean, Gerry’s cat, because Gerry took special care of all the cats in the family until she got sick and the burden of care mostly fell on my father-in-law Frank’s shoulders. He will tell you…
hey BABe
Stenciled graffiti near Fitzgerald Park in Cork City. The walls of this alleyway were covered in in street art. Is it vandalism or not? If not, would you like your house spray painted with slogans and designs. I guess there’s a place for everything.
Traffic must go left
Traffic must go left. This is one of those shots that has sat in TODO folder for ages and ages because I liked it, but it was sorely in need of some work. I probably cheated by making it black and white. Shot down at Cork Docklands about 13 months ago.
Rushing through countryside

Blarney Castle and River Martin
The River Martin flows near Blarney Castle in Co. Cork on a cold December morning in 2005. The Castle grounds were quiet that day with hardly a soul about! Spencer Tunick would have been hardly known in the area at the time.
Spencer Tunick photoshoot in Blarney Co. Cork, Ireland
As luck would have it, one of the more famous or perhaps notorious photographers of our time, Spencer Tunick, is shooting in Blarney, where I live, tomorrow morning. Update on Jun 8th, 2009 – I’ve justed posted a small gallery of Spencer Tunick photos as his website is down. It’s no great secret now, even…
Circo Copia Performance
Two members of Circo Copia performed for adults and kids alike at Fitzgerald’s Park yesterday during the Lord Mayor’s Picnic. Have you ever seen someone balance an umbrella on his forehead and play the mandolin at the same time? I have! This crazy bunch of performers had the crowd well entertained! They’re playing in the…

Check out the first gallery for more photos of the day. A few of these will eventually make their way into full posts but that may take a while! I…
