Reflection on the Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower reflected in the pond at the Jardins du Trocadéro in Paris.
I remember reading that police would stop you taking photos of the Eiffel Tower at night with a camera on a tripod but I never experienced that. Do they do that any more?

Boolaboom at the GPO
Boolaboom, a “super-sized brass and percussion big-band” played on Oliver Plunkett Street, in front of the GPO and they were great!

The Service at An Brog
We saw The Service play in An Bróg last night and they were as good as they’ve always been.
Best moment was, ‘For anyone under, uh, 50, THIS IS SKA!’
I’ll admit I didn’t know Madness were a ska band. My wife introduced me to the wider world of that genre of music!

Traffic and housing
The centre of Cork City will become a traffic free zone this Saturday for a few hours. The area visible in the photo above will still have cars in it, but it’ll be interesting to see what effect this will have on the day.
Visible in the background, of course, is “What is home?” by Dublin-based artist Asbestos.
This photo makes me feel uneasy.

Justice
The word JUSTICE painted on the side of the hoarding surrounding the derelict site on Sullivan’s Quay in Cork seems appropriate.
So many homeless in the city, and this huge area is still a heap of rubble in the middle of the city. Not that whatever gets built there will help the homeless. It was supposed to be the site of a glass covered hotel AFAIR.

A Street Performance for the kids
At the end of August, North Main Street closed to traffic as a carnival was held there. A huge crowd of adults and children descended on the street and the place was buzzing. 🙂
I wonder if this could be the same man I photographed on a unicycle in 2006?
