Down, down, down the stairs
Looking down the stairs in the public car park in Ennis, County Clare a few weeks ago. That was one hell of a tight car park to navigate. There was hardly any room to make corners or go up and down ramps.
Elevator only goes to the top two floors too and a sign on the ground floor warns parents or people with buggies and kids to park up there.

Diverging Lines near Allihies

Hillside Chains
Rusted chains lie on the ground near the walkway to the Mizen Head Lighthouse.
Just saw Star Trek. In my head it was the best thing since sliced bread but it was still a great film. Loved the little nods to the original series. Definitely worth going to see!

Thatched Roof in Bunratty
A thatched roof on one of the cottages in Bunratty Folk Park, County Clare.
There’s one ugly open mine right next door but it’s well hidden. I had no idea it was there until I checked Google Maps a minute ago!

David Rowell & Co
Do you know where Daly’s Bridge in Cork is? Sure you do. If you’ve lived in Cork you’ve probably walked across it even!
After one such excursion I snapped this photo to remind me to look up the printed name above. Turns out David Rowell & Co were a company, “that fabricated wrought iron and wire rope, built suspension footbridges, and structural steel frame buildings”. They traded from 1850 to 1970.
Among their accomplishments is Daly’s Bridge in Cork, or as it’s known locally, “the Shaky Bridge” near Fitzgerald’s Park.
So now you where Daly’s Bridge is!

Dunnes Stores in Ruins
The skeleton of the Dunnes Stores building on Patrick’s Street lies in ruins as building work continued to refurbish it.
Taken in September 2007, Brian took a shot of the building a few days ago in much better state!
Places are still available for the Cork City Photowalk on July 18th! Please leave comments on yesterday’s photowalk post if you have any questions!

Nature invades our spaces
Nature starts to reclaim the works of man as soon as he turns his back. It’s inevitable as this photo of the steps up to a house in Sunday’s Well shows.
My own garden is the picture of neat and tidy lawn without a single blade of grass out of place. I wish!
