Red Red Fruit
Red fruit from a tree in the grounds of Blarney Castle. I have no idea what tree they come from as the name plate on the trunk is far below the wall where I photographed them.
I’ll update the post when I find out!
I found out that they’re called “Cornus kousa” thanks to Adam Whitburn who works in the gardens.
It’s Cornus kousa. Some people call it the Szechuan strawberry although it certainly doesn’t taste like one!

BIFFO
Who? Is it Brian Cowen, or Biff?
I’ve had this photo on my computer for 5 years, waiting for it’s time to shine.

Red Red Rose
Red roses in my father-in-law’s garden, I think. This was shot way back in August but I’m fairly sure of the location.

Tullagh Cemetery at Sunset
Tullagh Cemetery in Baltimore, Co Cork, Ireland is just a field away from the excellent Casey’s Hotel where we spent the last week. I went down there one evening to shoot a couple of half capsized trawlers in the bay when I turned around and saw some of the headstones silhouetted against the setting sun.
I went searching online and found that 3 Commonwealth burials of the 1914-1918 war were in this graveyard.

Red and White Flowers
Colourful red and white flowers in the doorway of Supervalu in Blarney. I half thought about posting Damien’s picture from yesterday’s get together, especially after what lexia said but that’d be too cruel!

The writing’s on the wall for Heineken
Heineken logo silhouette on the ground outside a cafe in Kinsale on a very bright sunny day some time back.
If you’re wondering, the image above mirrored, otherwise the logo would be backwards!

Crimson Red Flowers
Glowing red flowers captured my attention at Fitzgerald’s Park a year ago, but I was never happy with my work on this photo until recently. Now I love it. Hope you like it too!

Express & Logistics
A DHL van near Paul Street, Cork provided me with a nice excuse to try out the urban acid plugin again! This has been sitting on my computer for almost 2 years but I only recently worked on it. Glad I did too. Love that red streak coming out of the shadows!

Red Lantern
A lantern with red glass sides sits on the window sill of the restaurant in the Quay Coop, Sullivan’s Quay in Cork. In the background is Halifax Bank which I have photographed previously.
Processed shots from the photowalk in Doneraile will take a while to do. Still catching up after the day out yesterday!

Great ball of flame
Sunrise over Blarney a few days ago. There was a thin layer of cloud on the horizon that nicely blocked out much of the light of the sun allowing me to capture this early morning sun.
It’s amazing to think that the light we see takes 8 minutes to travel the immense distance between the Sun and Earth. What’s even more remarkable is the thousands of years a photon can spend zinging back and forth inside the Sun before emerging as heat and light.
