Tricolour Boy
A young boy sits on his dad’s shoulders to get a bird’s eye view of the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Cork this year.

Patrick’s Day Spectator
A spectator watching the St Patrick’s Day Parade in Cork yesterday climbed up on the National Monument on the Grand Parade to get a better view. Lucky him.
As I said yesterday, it was easier and more enjoyable photographing the parade spectators than the parade!

Daffodil, snow and water droplets
A lonely daffodil bent down by the cold and snow a week ago in Blarney. Taken very close to the Daffodils in the Snow shot I posted that morning.
Love the tiny water droplets on the stem of the flower. It was a toss up between this image and the one I posted previously for that morning but I really like this shot too so it was tough choosing.

Whitegate Oil Refinery
Whitegate Oil Refinery in Cork Harbour, as seen from Crosshaven on the other side.
What you’re seeing here is Corkbeg Island in the foreground and this chimney stack in the background. Took me a while to figure that out! Zoom out of either map and draw a straight line through both going south west to pin point where I was standing when I took the photo 🙂
