Street lighting shines like stars as Glow continues next to the River Lee in Cork.

The famous red double decker busses of London passed by as I took this photo of a building and advertising display back in 2008.

This year the ferris wheel is back on The Grand Parade, Cork for Christmas again!

A member of An Garda Síochána directed traffic in Blarney last night when Santa visited and the lights were turned on in the village. This is a long exposure zoomed shot, of about one second duration with the flash firing at the end of the exposure. To replicate: Make sure you set your flash to…

Red fruit from a tree in the grounds of Blarney Castle. I have no idea what tree they come from as the name plate on the trunk is far below the wall where I photographed them. I’ll update the post when I find out! I found out that they’re called “Cornus kousa” thanks to Adam…
