Castlerosse Park Resort Cottage
Situated at the edge of the woods behind the Castlerosse Park Resort golf course is this small cottage. We walked by it a few weeks ago when we were in the area to photograph the rutting. There was a car parked directly outside, so it’s occupied, but it’s so solitary and in a secluded area,…
Painting a Malaga Mural
I spotted this mural being painted in Malaga a few weeks ago. A few people gathered around to watch. The mural is a striking painting of a woman in a blue dress, sitting in front of a landscape and a sunset. The painting is called, “Brisa Estival” or “Summer Breeze” by the artist, Lalone, according…
Construction at Sunset
From the top of the hotel I was staying at, I saw this lovely sunset happen and had to capture some images of it before the colour disappeared. Cranes dot the landscape, a sign of continued expansion in the Spanish tourist industry!
The sunset glow
The setting sun makes the sky glow a lovely yellow before the day ends in darkness.
Mushrooms on an old tree
Mushrooms cling to an old tree trunk in Killarney National Park.
Light speeds on the road
A bus and other traffic speed along the road at night.

Fitzgerald Park in Cork City is a bit flooded after the recent rain. The children’s play area is totally flooded, as it’s lower than the surrounding ground, and the pond is overflowing onto the surrounding path. They were waiting for the River Lee to overflow about an hour later!
Vertical tiling on an old house
I spotted this house in Kinsale and it reminded me of a house on Grand Parade in Cork that has the same vertical tiling or tile hanging on its walls. I also saw the same tiling on a house opposite that one in Grand Parade in a painting called Skellig Night on South Mall 1845…
The Red House
A red house in Kinsale. Observant readers will recall I posted another photo of this house a few months ago.
Pink Roses
Pink roses stood out against the dark bushes and overgrowth over a wall in Kinsale last summer.
Fab in the Sun
Not so much real sun, but Sun, the newspaper. A man reads it on St. Patrick’s Street, Cork. He’s probably doing the crossword.
Photos at the Vatican
After the crowds have gone on a cold November day in 2017, I visited St. Peter’s Square in the Vatican for some photos, and came across two women taking advantage of the quiet for some photos. The sun had already set, and it wasn’t 5pm yet, but it was nice to be in such a…
