De Barra’s masks
De Barra’s Pub in Clonakilty is a lovely atmospheric pub we visited a few weeks ago. Tucked into a corner, we ate our soup and relaxed as the cold rain and wind blew outside!
There’s lots of stuff hanging on the walls, and this is only a small flavour of the rich decoration.

Hazel O’Connor live in An Cruiscin Lan, Cork
Hazel O’Connor performed in An Cruiscin Lan last night. She has a great voice, and her songs are very emotionally charged and from the heart.
I loved how she told a short story about each song. It really brought it home how her mind works.

Eating or Politics?
Sometimes it’s the little things in life that concern us more than the big picture.
I’m sure I heard about Sean Garland on the news but for the life of me, I can’t remember when. There’s a lot more information on him on seangarland.org and Wikipedia.

Man in the hat
While in Wilton Shopping Center after having my eye looked at I spotted the man in the hat talking to an elderly woman. I only had my Panasonic FZ5 with me but it’s got a good zoom and a great image stabilizer!
He broke out into a big grin moments after I took this shot!

Waves Crashing
It’s very difficult to stop waves. You’ll need a fast shutter speed. If you don’t have a fast lens then stopping down a notch or third, or increasing the ISO will help too.
This image was originally quite bland with washed out waves and dark rocks but a little dodging and burning with a soft layer worked wonders!
This was taken in Dunworley, Co. Cork yesterday.

Chocolate through the glass
Shot this one by holding a magnifying glass up above a bar of Fry’s Chocolate. I will be enjoying said bar of chocolate at lunch. Yum.

Bird on Ground
What kind of bird is this? Around a dozen congregate around our bird feeders, dive to the ground and bath in the bowl of water below, and even fight over how gets to have a bath or a feed sometimes!
