Teampol na mBocht, Altar
A Church of Ireland church near Schull, in Co. Cork, is set in scenic landscape beside Toormore Bay. We drove past, and I saw it was surrounded by a sea of wildflowers, mostly oxeye daisies, and also dandelions. On our return from Crookhaven I vowed to stop and spend half an hour there taking photos.
Sunset at Carrigadrohid
The castle at Carrigadrohid stands on a rock in the middle of the River Lee, adjoining a bridge, giving the local village it’s name, after the Irish, Carraig an Droichid, meaning ‘rock of the bridge’. (Wikipedia) I’d never been before, but I went with Blarney Photography Club to photograph this scenic location last night. Luckily,…
The Blackrock Terrace
The skeleton of Páirc Úi Chaoimh before it was rebuilt reveals the Blackrock end of the stadium.
The seaweed bicycle
I spotted a bike for hire that must have been dumped in the river for quite some time before being returned to the lock area. It was underwater so long that seaweed grew on it and tiny seashells grew on the pedal! I presume it’ll be picked up, and hopefully cleaned up or recycled.
A cat on the roof
Hey! There’s a cat on the roof! Just one of the statues displayed at the Art+Soul exhibition in the Castlemartyr Resort was one of a cat standing on a large key. I thought it might be nice to see if the cat can stand on the roof of the hotel. 🙂
The Castlemartyr Resort Waterfall
When you visit the Castlemartyr Resort in Co. Cork, you cannot miss the waterfall in the river next to the entrance road. It’s a beautiful spot and well worth visiting!
At the Olympics
The Panathenaic Stadium was not very crowded when we visited, but I immediately noticed a small group of young people taking photos of each other and added them to a photo of my own. 🙂
Precious Things
Sometimes you’re just minding the precious things in life, like a handbag for someone special.
Stuck in their own moment
A moped rider, a shopper with a bag and two people looking in a shop window all in their own worlds together on the street.
Excited for a walk
A woman walks her dog on a street in Amsterdam. The little doggy is so excited. 🙂
Dressed for a party
When I walked past this little dog and snapped a photo of him with my phone, I didn’t realise I was photographing a celebrity dog. Thanks to Google Images, I found out the dog is Ali the Rasta Dog on Instagram. I’m not a fan of dressing dogs up in clothes, unless it’s cold out,…
The Ginger Guardian needs a rest
Being a guardian of the alley is tiring work and when they can, the guardians take a break. The lovely ginger cat I photographed in yesterday’s post jumped into this flower bed/shrubbery to rest and didn’t object when I took his photo.
