St Patrick’s Day Fireworks
Fireworks lit up the sky over Cobh last Sunday night, St. Patrick’s Day. We shot it from across the water from the park on Haulbowline.
At the Jeweller
She’s picking out something she likes.
The Port of Cork
The PORT OF CORK sign welcomes any boat coming into the city, but it’s probably on borrowed time if development continues in this area on Custom House Quay. I made this from 3 separate images because I forgot I had my wide-angle lens in my camera bag. I was out with friends from Blarney Photography…
City Hall in Green
Cork City Hall is lit up in green to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day today. We went out on Thursday night to photograph it and I decided to get something different by shooting an out of focus image
The Atlantic Pond in Reflection
I love walking by the Marina and sometimes walking around the Atlantic Pond. Most of the water was deliciously calm this afternoon when I visited.
Starry Night Sky
After photographing the National Space Centre on a dark January evening I turned around and spotted this silhouette. Luckily, there wasn’t much of a wind blowing, but we were lucky. A chill wind blew in a few minutes later.
The Idle Hour on Albert Quay
Well, the Idle Hour, Navigation Square, 1 Albert Quay and the other pubs along Victoria Road. This was taken one morning early, just after the sun rose. I’ve taken this photo a few times over the years and I love the reflection in the River Lee, at high tide, like the buildings are floating at…
An entertaining dog
There are lots of little dogs around Cork City these days, and they wear cute little coats against the rain and cold.
A little doggy in her coat
I don’t remember what this dog’s name was, but she was so cute I asked her human dad if I could photograph her. No petting was allowed as she is the typical small dog and isn’t fond of strangers rubbing her. Not surprising really. Would you like giants rubbing your head?
Yes, it is very long
The trailer of a lorry in Piper’s, Crosshaven. Not much activity happening there, but I liked this image.
All lit up in pink
The Parnell Place Bus Station in Cork is lit up from below by pink lighting. It’s a long exposure shot and a vehicle drove past during the shot. I wanted to get this shot and make sure that the red brick chimney to the far left was visible as it’s the most prominent part of…
I’ll have a pint
If you want a drink, there’s plenty of choice in Irish pubs. The taps above include Carslberg, Rockshore, Smithwicks, Guinness, Birramoretti, Coors, Heineken, and Murphys.
