St. Peter’s Church, Bandon
This is a Church of Ireland church in Bandon, Co Cork that’s off the usual route for commuters passing through the town. I’ve only ever been up that direction once or twice despite having passed through the town hundreds of times! It’s a beautiful looking building but I’ve never been inside and there are few…
Demolition of the Miag Grain Silo
Someone posted a grainy mobile phone picture of demolition work going on in the Docklands, Cork on Facebook a few days ago so I had to go down and record the event for myself. The building being demolished is the second part of the Miag/Art Deco Silos as seen in this post. Construction on the…
Blarney Castle in the Evening
Blarney Castle as seen this evening. The garden’s looking amazing and it’s nice to see the new statues and art over the last few days. Shot with my Galaxy S4, so apologies for the Jpeg artefacts. It’s a HDR image and it’s really pushing the sensor!

The Bay Bridge in San Francisco as it was in 2007. I can’t believe that was seven years ago. Wow.
Ground Level by Bishop Lucey Park
The Grand Parade in Cork was quite different 11 years ago. Outside Bishop Lucey Park was an uneven path, the centre of the street was a narrow section between two busy strips of tarmac. And of course the Capitol Cinema was still open. I’m glad the monstrosity pictured here was never built there, even if…
