R&H Hall as it was

R&H Hall stands on Kennedy Quay before any demolition work took place. The flat area of the quay is visible in front.

At the start of February, this imposing building still stood on Kennedy Quay but now most of it is a pile of rubble.

The public toilets at Warren Beach, Co Cork, might seem like an unusual photo, but they were the only source of light nearby. Apart from a few minutes later when I ran up and down the beach with the flashlight on my phone for some fun long exposure shots.

A fork in the forest

A path forks left and right around the ruins of a building in a forest.

The path forks around one of the ruins of the gunpowder mill in Ballincollig Regional Park, Cork. Everything is overgrown, but access is easy. Inside that building, it looks like this.

Young man walking

A woman holding her dog on the lead. He's sitting on the ground of a pedestrian bridge. The river visible in the background. A man walks past, looking directly at me.

Others are enjoying the setting sun, while this man walking past looked directly at me just as I clicked the shutter.

St Patrick’s Day Fireworks

Fireworks light up the night sky over Cobh. The light reflects on the water.

At the Jeweller

A woman and her two kids, with a man nearby, presumably her partner, look in the window of a jeweller's as someone inside picks out something.

She’s picking out something she likes.

The Port of Cork

The sign saying "PORT OF CORK" displayed on the middle island of the city, visible to any boats coming up the river from the harbour. The supports of the sign are reflected in a puddle, as are the lights and nearby building. The Cork skyline is visible in the background of this sunset photo.

The PORT OF CORK sign welcomes any boat coming into the city, but it’s probably on borrowed time if development continues in this area on Custom House Quay.

I made this from 3 separate images because I forgot I had my wide-angle lens in my camera bag. I was out with friends from Blarney Photography Club photographing the city. Here’s a post with more photos!

City Hall in Green

Cork City Hall at night, and it's lit up in green to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. The river reflects the colour of the building.

The colours of Cork City Hall and surrounding lights are captured in an out of focus image.
The colours are reflected in the River Lee.

Cork City Hall is lit up in green to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day today. We went out on Thursday night to photograph it and I decided to get something different by shooting an out of focus image

The Atlantic Pond in Reflection

Trees are reflected in the water of the Atlantic Pond in Cork. The water is very still, and a clear blue sky is unblemished by clouds.

I love walking by the Marina and sometimes walking around the Atlantic Pond. Most of the water was deliciously calm this afternoon when I visited.

Starry Night Sky

Stars pop and light pollution shows in the sky while the foreground trees and bushes are silhouetted. Poles carrying wires too.

After photographing the National Space Centre on a dark January evening I turned around and spotted this silhouette. Luckily, there wasn’t much of a wind blowing, but we were lucky. A chill wind blew in a few minutes later.
