  • Missing the Sights

    A person with their head down looking at a phone. They're wrapped up warmly against the (IMO) mild October weather in Lisbon. Another man next to them looks off in another direction. They're standing on a pavement made of tiny square tiles in a decorative pattern.

    Mobile phones are handy, but you miss the world if you’re looking at them. My wife will laugh when she sees me say this.

  • Let it snow in Arizona

    Many years ago, on a cold January day in Arizona we came across a small yard where metal works were being sold. One of those was an unusual metal robot with a red and white hat on it’s head, saying “LET IT SNOW”.

    It didn’t snow, but it was cold at night!

  • Hussey’s Folly and the green fields

    On a lovely evening in August 2020, we were visiting Dingle in Co. Kerry. A walk out to Hussey’s Folly is always on the cards, I think this evening was the last time we saw Fungie too. He was swimming in the bay, just off shore, surrounded by boats, as he always was.

  • The Dragon Awakens

    The Dragon of Shandon ready to go on the parade, with a woman holding an umbrella looking at it. A single solitary street light provides illumination, apart from the soft light from nearby windows.

    The Dragon of Shandon was all ready to travel through Cork City. It was waiting just down the street from Shandon Bells. Raaaarrrrr!

  • Patient Pooch Steals Attention

    A patient dog waits for his owner to find money for a St. Bridget's Cross while two passing women admire the dog.

    With a walking stick under his arm, a man pays a young woman for a St. Bridget’s Cross on February 1st, 2023. As he completes the transaction, his loyal dog sits patiently on the ground, gazing away in anticipation of walks to come. Two women pass by and catch sight of the striking canine, drawn to the dog’s friendly aura and bold bandana.

  • A selfie with the Eiffel Tower

    A young woman poses for a selfie in front of the Eiffel Tower as it is all lit up. Other people are sitting down nearby. The Eiffel Tower is reflected in the waters of the Fontaine du Jardin du Trocadéro.

    A woman poses for a selfie in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. There’s rain in the air and others are sheltering under umbrellas. I have my camera out on a tripod to take photos, of course!

  • Shandon Bells and Houses

    The spire of St. Anne's Church (Shandon Bells) rises above the surrounding houses and street next to it at sunset with cloudy skies overhead.

    Shandon Bells, seen from a slightly different perspective than the one at Bell’s Field we’re used to. It’s surrounded by houses and roads, and even by the nearby brewery, of which you can see a small portion of in this photo.

  • The Marina will be improved

    A cyclist reads a sign next to a road. The sign is blurred due to a narrow depth of field, but is about the Marina Promenade Improvement Works.

    A cyclist on the Marina in Cork reads a sign showing some of the improvements to be expected as work progresses on improving that road and the surrounding.
