Waiting in Colour
Off to the side of Monastiraki Square, near the train station entrance is a Flormar store, and I when I saw what you see above I had to get a photo. If you go there now, you might see that man. He was attending to a local stall and stepped away for a moment.
The crowds of Monastiraki Square
Monastiraki Square in Athens is a busy area for tourists, right next to many of the ancient sites of the city. It’s a bustling area, full of interesting characters, both local and foreign, and a great place to visit for a street photographer!

A Four-Legged Historian
Bishop Lucey Park in Cork is surrounded by hoarding with text describing the history of the area. But you don’t want to read about that, do you? That cute little doggy is all any of us wants to see. 🙂
A Ghost in the Roundy
A little fun with long exposure photography creates a ghost coming out of The Roundy.
The Silesian Insurgents’ Monument
The Silesian Insurgents’ Monument in Katowice, Poland stands next to a roundabout and a large building called KTW and The Spodek. KTW was only completed in 2022, and if you look at the city in Google Maps you’ll see a construction site there. The monument was erected in 1967.
