Traffic flies by the Sextant
Traffic speeds past the Sextant on Albert Quay in late October 2019. The building is gone now and missed by many Cork people. It was a familiar sight to me as it was on my route home growing up.

The Tritons’ Fountain in Valetta
The fabulous Tritons’ Fountain in Valetta, Malta. The fountain was built between 1952 and 1959. I’m glad I saw it after it was restored in 2018. It seems to have had an interesting life if the Wikipedia page is to be believed.

The Lovely Keem Beach
Keem Beach on Achill Island, Co Mayo. July 2019. So long ago. Also see it on Instagram where you can swipe to see the whole lot. I used the convert command in Imagemagick to split the file into 3 equally sized parts: convert input.jpg -crop 3×1@ out-%02d.jpg

Light Trails on Anglesea Street
On the last outing to Cork City by Blarney Photography Club in 2019. I was lucky that two busses passed within seconds of each other and I had the shutter open to capture them!
