Bay Bridge at Night
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.

House on Lower Glanmire Road, Cork
A derelict house on the Lower Glanmire Road in Cork as it existed in 2004, almost ten years ago. Now there’s a bridge across the road nearby obscuring this view and the house is boarded up.
Horse Trough in Parnell Place
It’s been many years since horses have drunk from this trough in Parnell Place, Cork but it’s great this old street furniture is still here. There’s a similar one on Alfred Street, in front of Mc Loughlin’s.
