The Lady And Her Dog

This large wall in Bishop Lucey Park has featured a huge mural on it for several years now. This is the wall as it was in June 2021, but the mural has been changed since then.

Cobh Cathedral at Night

After the fireworks a few weeks ago and I wanted one last photo, this time of Cobh Cathderal. A hand held HDR taken while my camera rested precariously on top of a wall!

The Jellyfish at Blarney Castle

Over the next few days in Blarney Castle there’s a new pop-up garden to visit inside the walls of the building. In it, you’ll find an aquarium that is home to a group of moon jellyfish surrounded by specially selected plants and beautiful art work. The Irish Examiner has published an article on it this…

The Tide is Out

Low tide on the River Lee recently, but with the talk of drought in Europe this summer, it’s hard not to jump to the conclusion that the water level is extra low. I drove by the river yesterday evening during high tide. The water was only 30cm or less below the level of the street,…

The Last Supermoon of 2022

The Moon is almost 90% of it’s closest approach to Earth right now, which is why it’s called a Supermoon but it’s not much bigger than it usually is. Thankfully the air is clear and the skies are mostly devoid of clouds so I got a nice photo of the Moon last night. 🙂
