The Truman House
A sign outside a home in Seaside, Florida, tells the curious passer-by, “The Truman House”. It was used as the home where Truman Burbank lived in the film, The Truman Show. The house itself sits at 31 Natchez Street in Seaside. I didn’t see anyone about, but then again I walked past at around 8am…
A Metal Flag with Heart
The Stars & Stripes made from corrugated metal outside someone’s house in Seaside Florida. I guess it was a child’s project, especially with the heart attached to it. It was so rusted then, I doubt it’s still there now, 13 years later!
Sunset at Seaside
It was the end of another sweltering day at Seaside, Florida. The sun was setting in a blaze of glory. The sky was on fire with dramatic rays of orange and pink, and the clouds were playing their part perfectly. I spotted a swimmer going into the water, and she made for a nice silhouette…

Susan Ann Sulley of The Human League
Way back in 2012, The Human League played in Cork. Here’s a photo of singer, Susan Ann Sulley that night. Phil Oakey is to her right but I decided she should have the attention in this photo!
Relaxing in Bishop Lucey Park
Many people have sat on this bench in Bishop Lucey Park. I’ve got photos of some of them. I’ll post them here in a few years time. Picture taken in August 2009.
Strands of beauty treatments

An Impossible View
Many of the buildings in this photo are now gone, replaced with imposing glass frontage, or in the case of The Sextant there’s nothing there but a car park.
