Sitting in the park
Bishop Lucey Park, Cork. May 2018.
The sun has set
The sun set on Lanzarote, pre-Covid time.
On the River Lee
Looking down towards Nano Nagle Bridge from Parliament Bridge. October 2002. Note the tanks of the brewery in the background and the overgrown trees of the Peace Park to the right. Both gone now!
Three Spires of Cork City
Holy Trinity Church, St. Nicholas Church, and St. Fin Barre’s Cathedral in one photo from October 2005. Also included if you look carefully are the College of Commerce, the now demolished tax office on Sullivan’s Quay and off in the distance the County Hall.
Traffic flies by the Sextant
Traffic speeds past the Sextant on Albert Quay in late October 2019. The building is gone now and missed by many Cork people. It was a familiar sight to me as it was on my route home growing up.
The Kyle Street Mural
There’s a fabulous mural on the corner of Kyle Street and Cornmarket Street in Cork.
By the roast chestnut seller
Roast chestnuts for sale in Porto, November 2019.
The river under the trees
The River Martin flows through the grounds of Blarney Castle under stone and wood bridges and of course under the canopy of overhanging trees. Blarney Castle today in glorious sunshine.
A Selfie in Madrid
I loved staying in Madrid. There’s a great buzz there and the streets were packed with people. Great for street photography. Not so great in this pandemic world.
A Pink Cadillac in Blarney
Happy St. Patrick’s Day! The owner of this pink Cadillac took part in the Blarney parade in 2016! No parade this year. The village was very quiet this evening when I went for a walk there.
The cat looks down
A cat looked down on the street as we wandered around Valetta in Malta in 2019. I bet they’d have loved a good ear scratching!
On The Phone
In a shopping centre in Bristol, United Kingdom. June 2017.
