When you walk into the Oceanogràfic de València in (guess where) Valencia, you’ll spot large glowing tanks of water. They’re underground, presumably to help keep them cool in the hot Spanish climate and unfortunately, most people just walked straight past them. Now, I’m not a huge fan of jellyfish, but they’re a beautiful animal to…

Some of the thatched beach umbrellas on Playa de Ajabo in Tenerife, just after the sun has set. There’s a restaurant behind where I was taking the photo, with bright neon lights shining on the beach, that was annoying to remove.

This woman was screaming into a microphone on Grand Parade, Cork, for the last few years. This is a photo from 2022, but I remember seeing her in late 2024 too. I could never make out what she was saying as the sound was distorted so much by the volume on her speaker. I hardly…

Jaysus, I nearly dropped me phone when I spotted this scene in the Musée d’Orsay like. There’s your man on the left, pure glued to his iPhone, probably updating his Insta or whatever, and the other fella hanging on to some pamphlet or other. And there in the middle, this massive marble yoke, probably worth…

Ever wonder how they clean the high up windows of the Cork Opera House? Wonder no more. It’s with a really long pole that reaches to the top!

I spotted this scene while walking up the hill next to the harbour in the old town of Puerto del Carmen. The peeling paint of the window frame attracted my attention, but then the modern signs stood out in contrast to the white painted wall. Just one of those things I like about looking around.

A man sitting on the steps of a theatre in Kraków is framed by the handles of the doors behind him.

A cat sits on the slipway in the old town of Puerto del Carmen in Lanzarote, surveying the damage to a boat. Or maybe he’s just enjoying the last rays of the sun on a warm January evening.

There was a huge turnout for the pro-Palestine rally in Grand Parade yesterday afternoon. There’s huge support for Palestine in Ireland. Speakers welcomed the cease fire, but I don’t think anyone thinks it’ll hold. Recently, I found photos of a similar rally through the streets of Cork in 2009. It’s the same issues. Nothing has…

A container ship dwarfs the pier where Spike Island tours have their office at Cobh.

The speed of light is definitely more than 20mph in London.
