  • Cork Pride Party at the Port 2023

    A large crowd gathered to enjoy the after-parade party at Cork Pride 2023. A stage can be seen in the background.

    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 ecstatic crowd!

    The atmosphere there was electric, with plenty of happy faces as people enjoyed the music and the good weather.

  • The cat at the window

    A cat on a window sill looks up at me.

    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. 🙂

  • The Ruins of Kilcrea Friary

    Kilcrea Friary in Co Cork as the sun set behind it. Despite the unusually wet summer, this particular evening was dry and warm and just about perfect for a sunset.

    Just some of the vehicles parked on Inch Beach the other day. Adventurous folk!

  • Narrator: vehicles weren’t removed

    An electronic sign at a beach says, "HIGH TIDE 5:15pm Tues1Aug"
    An electronic sign at a beach saying, "Remove Vehicles in GOOD TIME"

    It’s good to see a warning for motorists who park on Inch Beach in Co. Kerry. High tide was at 5:15pm yesterday, and motorists were urged to remove their vehicles “in GOOD TIME”.

    We parked in the car park and left at 5:42pm, but there were still a few hardy souls on the beach with their cars. Including one German registered Land Rover Defender that was parked right next to the “No cars beyond this point”. I guess they wanted to use their spotless, clean vehicle in “extreme terrain” like a “sandy beach” just once before going back to the urban jungle.

    Luckily, high tide isn’t high enough to submerge vehicles.

  • Looking for a room

    A mural on the side of a building shows a person with an Amazon box over their head. An eye looks sideways out of the box, looking at the window on the left of the photo.

    A mural on the side of a building on North Main Street is called “What is home” and features a person wearing an Amazon box, as that’s the only accommodation they can find.

    In this photo the figure is looking sideways to the visible window on the front of the building, as if asking, “why can’t I find somewhere to live?”

  • Shandon Bells from Cornmarket Street

    Trees, buildings and street lighting while in the background is the steeple of St. Anne's Church or Shandon Bells.

    Look up from Cornmarket Street and you’ll see the steeple of St. Anne’s Church, or Shandon Bells!

  • Looking for fish

    A man looks up at a large mural on a wall. Only part of it is visible but it's a person fishing on a river, with woods and buildings on the far bank.

    I’ve posted photos of the Kyle Street mural before, but here’s another one. A man looked up at what I was photographing as he walked past, and I couldn’t resist taking a photo!

  • Mauve, green, and red

    3 doors, mauve, green and red on a street.

    3 doors, all different colours. I love it! Modern housing is so boring.

  • Never a phone when you want one…

    A long exposure photo at night. Light trails from passing vehicles in the background while in front are 3 phone boxes and traffic lights showing red and amber lights.

    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

    A man gets on a very tall unicycle with the help of a ladder and a passer by, watched by a crowd all around him.

    April 18th, 2006 when the St. Patrick’s Festival was still a new thing and street entertainers entertained the population.

    He was good on that unicycle. Didn’t fall at all.

    Today was Robert’s funeral, so here’s a street photo he would like. It’s got layers, it’s got people, it’s got a changing city, from the old to the new.

    Robert, you will be missed.
