County Hall and the Chimney
Cork County Hall, as seen from a nearby hill in Sunday’s Well. Argh! I hate coming up with blog post titles.
Old House on Oilean Chleire
Just up the hill from the North Harbour on OIlean Chleire off the County Cork coast.
Gangsters
Gangster’s Barbers, somewhere in London. I couldn’t tell you where. Matt was driving.

Wind turbines dot the landscape here and there. Shot in West Cork last year.
Around by St. Luke’s
A white van rounds the corner at St. Luke’s Church at St Luke’s Cross in Cork. Taken on the photowalk a few weeks back.
