A smiley face forever lost to the world as it’s part of the works under the flyover in Douglas near Douglas Shopping Centre.

The urban landscape as seen from the top of Shandon Bells in Cork.

Clancy’s Bar and Restaurant in Youghal has apparently been closed for quite some time. I never knew the place but my wife was surprised and disappointed to see the For Sale signs outside. I didn’t even notice the people walking along the road until I looked at the photo on my monitor!

Timoleague Abbey, in the town of the same name in Co Cork is an impressive building from the road. I must have driven (or been driven by my parents) past there hundreds of times over the years from childhood on but I don’t think I explored the Abbey ruins until about 3 or 4 years…

Two houses painted contrasting colours in the town of Kinsale in Co Cork.

The Village Laundry in Glengarriff, Co Cork, pictured almost a year ago. Love that deep purple on the walls!

The doorway of an abandoned cafe on Oliver Plunkett Street. This one is next to The Old Oak and I’m sure I remember it open once, but it always seems to be closed down. Shot during the pre-iba09 photowalk a few weeks ago.

SMP Great Britain. Manufacturers of playground equipment. This one is in the playground at Fitzgerald’s Park, Cork. I don’t think it’s this SMP though.

The River Lee runs through Cork City along two channels with an island in the middle. That island is where the City Center is and provides for plenty of opportunities shooting the river 🙂 Shot during the pre-iba09 photowalk ages ago.

NOA NOA, on Oliver Plunkett Street, Cork as a plane flies overhead.

This one’s for Richard. He told me there was a sign on Maylor Street I should shoot so here it is. 🙂

McDonald’s on Daunt Square. The golden arches are recognised world wide.
