A cry for help

A woman walks past an Eircom phone box vandalised by graffiti and displaying pro-Gaza stickers.

These Eircom phone boxes are soon going to be a thing of the past as they are being removed, but this one had two large stickers against the war in Gaza that caught my eye.

Another tourist in Malaga

A tourist looks up at something unseen out of frame in Malaga, Spain.

Malaga has a huge tourist industry and is great for street photography. I think I’ve posted at least five images over the years from this very street, and have a couple more to go, too!

Waiting on Henry Street

Two men lean against a pole. One checks his phone, while the other one looks off in the distance.

There are many ways of waiting on a busy shopping street.

Friends hanging around

A group of young people sitting on a window sill down a side street. A woman and two men. They each have phones and the man on the right is speaking to someone outside the frame.

Friends sitting on a window sill, in front of a shop, in Valencia one afternoon in October 2023.

The remains of the shop

A woman walks past the front entrance of the old Roches Stores, or later Debenhams, but now a derelict building in the heart of the city. The building is surrounded by hoarding.

All that remains of Debenhams is the faded imprint of the sign on the front of its previous location on St. Patrick’s Street, Cork.

A tourist stares

A woman stares at the tram I'm travelling on, unaware that I'm taking her photo. She is dressed warmly as it is November, and even in Lisbon it gets chilly.

The tram trundles past and people stare at it, unaware I have captured the moment. Lisbon, November 2023.

After photographing the National Space Centre on a dark January evening I turned around and spotted this silhouette. Luckily, there wasn’t much of a wind blowing, but we were lucky. A chill wind blew in a few minutes later.

An entertaining dog

A small, white dog looks at the camera. He's wearing a colourful coat while people walk past behind him.

There are lots of little dogs around Cork City these days, and they wear cute little coats against the rain and cold.

A little doggy in her coat

A small white dog with a coat on looking at the camera. Her owner has him on a pink lead. Her owners' foot and leg are also visible, and they're standing in front of a jeweller's shop.

I don’t remember what this dog’s name was, but she was so cute I asked her human dad if I could photograph her. No petting was allowed as she is the typical small dog and isn’t fond of strangers rubbing her. Not surprising really. Would you like giants rubbing your head?

The interesting shop

Five women look in a shop call MI FLAMENCA through two separate windows at the tourist knick knacks for sale. They're maybe unaware of each other as they are separated by a corner. A postbox sits at the corner, waiting for postcards home.

Down a side street in Valencia I spotted five ladies looking in the windows of a tourist shop selling T-shirts, fridge magnets, kitchen towels, bags and all sorts of other knick-knacks.

Smile for the camera

A woman photographs a man in a hat, in front of the tram I'm on. She has her phone up to her face. 2 younger women are nearby, while a couple walk in from the right and a woman looks at her phone in the background near them.

She took a photo of me while I was on a tram passing by on this street in Lisbon, Portugal. I took a photo of what, I think, is a much more interesting scene.
