The Cathedral on the River

Cork Pride Party at the Port 2023
A few photos from the 2023 Cork Pride “party at the port” on Kennedy Quay. There was a huge crowd there, with people coming and going all the time. A band played the hits, followed by a few words from the Lord Mayor of Cork, and then the drag queens came out to entertain the…
The cat at the window
I was wandering around town when I spotted a cat jump up on a window sill, sit down and then stare at me. Probably wondering if I had treats for them. 🙂

Mauve, green, and red
3 doors, all different colours. I love it! Modern housing is so boring.
Never a phone when you want one…
I guess if you’re in London you probably won’t have much trouble finding a public phone. A group of them stood here, wherever it is. Empty and alone.Meanwhile, traffic passes in the background, casting eerie light trails through the photo.
A Unicycle on Patrick’s Street
