An Fear Marbh at Sunset
On a lovely summer’s evening on the Dingle Peninsula I photographed An Fear Marbh, yet again. It’s a picturesque part of the country so you can hardly blame me for taking photos! 🙂
Today I learned that, in English, it’s called Inishtooskert, which is an Anglicised version of the Irish name, “Inis Tuaisceart”, or “Northern Island”.

Conversation and laughter
A moment of laughter caught on camera in Malaga, Spain a few weeks ago.
I wonder what they were talking about?

Light trails and Christmas lights
There’s a four lane highway through Malaga but in December and January they have great decorations over the street.
The perfect time to take some long exposure shots of passing traffic!

Loading the containers
Loading a container ship in Malaga Harbour. The sun has already set but there’s a lovely glow in the sky!
Trying something new this time. You’ll probably have the visit the site to get the full effect. I’ll be uploading these images to Instagram shortly.
As before, these images were cut up with the convert command:

Malaga after the sun set
If the sky is right, Málaga harbour has some stunning sunsets. The colours of the sky are reflected in the waters of the harbour. The industrial and urban buildings on the far shore make for pleasing silhouettes defined by the setting sun.

Lights in the rain
Rain pours out of the sky and runs along the pavement in this street in Dublin last year. It wasn’t a bad night if you had an umbrella.

Shelter from the rain
They’re heading to a Halloween party on a rainy October evening in Dublin. The guy looking in the window probably wishes he could get out of the rain, but the others around him show they’re not immune to the wet and are covering their heads.
Me? I was glad I brought an umbrella with me from Cork. I didn’t rub it in by bringing my Corcaigh umbrella…
