Kennedy Quay Panorama
Kennedy Quay in Cork in February 2024 before the R&H Hall building was demolished. Look to the right, and you’ll see Albert Quay and the new buildings there. This whole area will look quite different in only a few years.
Reflections of houses in the Lee
The colourful buildings of Pope’s Quay reflected in the waters of the River Lee. Thanks Henry for noticing!
Young man walking
Others are enjoying the setting sun, while this man walking past looked directly at me just as I clicked the shutter.
The Idle Hour on Albert Quay
Well, the Idle Hour, Navigation Square, 1 Albert Quay and the other pubs along Victoria Road. This was taken one morning early, just after the sun rose. I’ve taken this photo a few times over the years and I love the reflection in the River Lee, at high tide, like the buildings are floating at…
Rowing past the ships
On a quiet October morning in 2016, I travelled into town as I saw there was fog forecast, and I wasn’t disappointed. While I was photographing the boats lined up along Kennedy Quay, a single rower came up the river. He quickly glided past my position along the river, but I grabbed a few photos,…
The Kennedy Quay Skyline
Kennedy Quay this morning as the sun rose, with R&H Hall in the centre of the image, as this skyline will disappear in the next few months. Note: the sky has been replaced. It was a very dull, overcast day. Hopefully, this is more pleasing to the eye. The old R&H Hall building has not…
The Ballincollig Regional Park Weir
The weir in Ballincollig Regional Park collapsed in 2014, but this photo was taken many years before that, in 2003. Repairs to the weird have been delayed over and over again, unfortunately.
Rowing on the River Lee
A rowing boat on the River Lee on a warm August evening 2022. The lovely warm glow of the sun shines on the grass nearby, but the river bank opposite is in shadow.
Across the Nano Nagle Bridge
This footbridge was built in the 80s and is an indispensable connection between Grand Parade and Sullivan’s Quay in Cork. Seeing the trees in this photo reminded me that there aren’t many trees in the City Centre any more. 🙁
The Cathedral on the River
Saint Fin Barre’s Cathedral in Cork sits just above the River Lee, towering over nearby buildings. I took this photo from South Gate Bridge on a lovely evening recently.
Boats on the Water
Three boats tied up on the water between Drakes Pool and Crosshaven in Co Cork.
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.
