Big Generator: Cobh’s Night Electric
Big Generator rocked Cobh last August during the Cobh People’s Regatta. They played in the band stand in the park and even later in the evening after the fireworks there was a large crowd dancing and enjoying the music! Look out for them as they play around the country.
Benion makes a save
It was October 2007, and I was in Cobh to photograph the game between Cobh Ramblers and Dundalk FC. The visitors were beaten 1-0 but Chris Bennion stopped this attempt on goal. I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve photographed a football game, but this was the first one, a long…

The bridge to a sunset

Laurel & Hardy Visit Cobh

They put on a fine show, doing several sketches and singing a few favourites and doing a dance. Lucky Dog Theatre Productions were…
The road to Cork
Looking up at the old Methodist church on the Cork side of Cobh I liked how the sign looked.
Doorways through a tunnel
I looked through a gate and saw a tunnel. Doors at the end were lit up in a courtyard. Barely noticed on the main street in Cobh.
