Fireworks on Spike Island
Fireworks lit up the sky above Spike Island this evening! Posting this from the island.
Red 6
No 6 in Kinsale recently. I loved the red colour and the contrasting white/cream door and windows.
The Old Bank House of Kinsale
The Old Bank House, or Old Bank Townhouse is a 5 star hotel, right at the busiest junction in Kinsale. I’ve walked past there loads of times, drove past there more times, but I never noticed the 5 star designation. The Google Maps reviews for this establishment are very positive, although it comes as no…
The Homes of Kinsale
If you’ve been to Kinsale you’ll be familiar with the centre of town but behind those businesses are the homes of local residents, stretching up towards the top of the hill. It’s a lovely town, full of history and of course great food, so well worth a visit. 🙂
A Swallow Murmuration
Swallows flew back and forth in a group, known as a murmuration. This was a small one but impressive still!
Tracks in the field
The tracks left behind by a tractor in a field of corn in Ballycroneen, Co Cork.
The Crow and the Swallow
A crow stands on top of a pole as a swallow flies past him. Those swallows are really hard to photograph, so I zoomed in on the top of the pole and just watched the pole, without looking through the camera. When I saw a swallow fly close, I hit the shutter button hoping burst…
Horse is a picky eater
Down by Garrettstown Beach in Co Cork I spotted a horse in a field. He was by himself and I went over to say hi, and take his photo. He’s obviously had enough of people taking his photo, or maybe he ate something unpleasant, to judge by the look on his face. 🙂
Construction Cranes on Horgan’s Quay
Back in 2019, and Horgan’s Quay was in the middle of development. Cranes were overhead, and the whole place was a building site.
Shadows and Sun
We were walking out towards Hussey’s Folly outside Dingle when I looked across Dingle Harbour and saw the sunlight travel across the opposite headland as clouds moved away. I love seeing light and shadow on a landscape so I grabbed a few quick shots.
The Boats of Glandore Harbour
Glandore harbour in the summer of 2019. Mist rolled off the sea on this day but had mostly faded away by the time I got there. However, you can see it in the distance, clinging to the land in the distance.
A Wine Strand Sunset
The road to the end of the headland by Wine Strand in Co. Kerry curves off into the distance. Parked vehicles are parked there as people enjoy the evening.
