Light trails under the High Street Bridge

Red and white light trails of passing cars under the High Street Bridge in Cork.

Cars go up and down the South Link Road underneath the High Street Bridge in Cork.

The bridge was built in 1984, to replace another bridge that crossed the Bandon railway line that stood there since 1850!

Seeing Double

The lights of a Ferris Wheel appear doubled as the camera moved during exposure. Lots of other lights move too.

Two for the price of one! The Ferris Wheel on Grand Parade has grown a twin!

Thanks, Henry, for the inspiration. Here is his double photo.

Thanks Henry for all the help, and the crystal ball!

The Road to Femés

The Road to Femés

Every time I go to Lanzarote I like to photograph the road coming from Playa Blanca to Femés. It leads to a very steep hill that some cars have problems with. Our hired car included, as it was very underpowered!

If you look carefully you’ll see the ghostly image of a car near the pole in the foreground of this image. They stopped for a good few seconds before successfully getting to the top of the hill.
