Just an Old Car
One of the old cars on Cape Clear Island.
Light Streaks of City Traffic
A long exposure shot of traffic as it heads into Cork City from the direction of Blackpool. This was very difficult to take and the original shows quite a bit of shake even though I had the camera balanced on a pedestrian traffic light button thingy. Love the streaks though.
Carpark or Ferry
Which way? To the carpark and drive home, or the ferry to Oilean Chleire? Shot in Baltimore last summer.
Carriganass Castle
Carriganass Castle in Co Cork lies a few miles from Bantry. It was a dull wet day when I visited so I didn’t stay too long!
Turning Circle of the QE2
The Queen Elizabeth 2 took several minutes to turn in the harbour outside Cobh in Co Cork. Plenty of spectators watching from boats as the sun started to sink behind the horizon.
Bantry Garda Station
The Garda Station in Bantry Co Cork is quite a distinctive building, especially alongside the more traditional shops and houses of the town.
Calor
Calor gas bottles sit on the quay in Baltimore Co Cork, waiting to be collected. I presume they’re empty or someone would have made off with them.. PS. One of my photos was used in Day 9 on photochallenge.org.
Biosphere 2 Blue
Biosphere 2 in Arizona on a cold day in January last year.
Last of the Construction Workers
Recession, recession, re… The R Word. Construction workers on the site of the new shopping center in Cork City on Patrick’s Street. I walked past this entrance a few times and the guy in the blue jumper was standing in the same place, watching me each time. Scary.
Style Living Eating
The construction site that is Dunnes Stores on Patrick’s Street. I wonder if the staff in Dorothy Perkins are bothered by the noise? PS. My brother Donal is Mr May in the Top Oil 2009 Calendar!
Innards of the Building
The old Dunnes Stores building on Patrick’s Street in Cork is keeping it’s old style and attractive front facade. Phew. I still think it’s odd how a building site juts out behind it though. PS. The nominations form for the Irish Blog Awards is now open. If you feel it deserves it, I’d be very…
Smiles all around
The smiling attractive face of a model appeared on the hoarding surrounding the building site that is Dunnes Stores in Cork several months ago. It hasn’t had much of an effect on all however.
