Mushrooms cling to an old tree trunk in Killarney National Park.

A bus and other traffic speed along the road at night.

Fitzgerald Park in Cork City is a bit flooded after the recent rain. The children’s play area is totally flooded, as it’s lower than the surrounding ground, and the pond is overflowing onto the surrounding path. They were waiting for the River Lee to overflow about an hour later!

A red house in Kinsale. Observant readers will recall I posted another photo of this house a few months ago.

Pink roses stood out against the dark bushes and overgrowth over a wall in Kinsale last summer.

Not so much real sun, but Sun, the newspaper. A man reads it on St. Patrick’s Street, Cork. He’s probably doing the crossword.

The double phone box on Proby’s Quay is looking the worse for wear these days. This is what it looked like on a bright July day in 2021. It hasn’t improved since. Notions.
