The Blue Tuk Tuk

A blue tuk tuk driving along in front of the blue Court of Appeal of Lisbon in Portugal. I wonder how comfortable they are on those cobbles?

Michael Collins and the Big Wheel

I was out and about with friends from Blarney Photography Club on Thursday night, and we got some great shots of the big wheel on Grand Parade. This year the big wheel is joined by a statue of the Big Fellah, Michael Collins. Check out Henry’s photo here.

This Ferris Wheel or Big Wheel is a portal to a new world. Look carefully, and you can see Cork at the end of the portal. Check out Henry and Nuala’s photos from last night: Henry, Nuala 1, and Nuala 2.

Look into my eyes

Sometimes I’m making photos on the street, or in this case, photographing from a moving tram, and someone will make eye contact. They’ll stand out from the crowd because they are different and made a connection.

Cobbles, Light and Shadow

I visited the Igreja Paroquial da Graça (Church of Our Lady of Grace) in Lisbon early one morning. There’s a beautiful view of the city, but if you look behind and around you’ll find these lovely cobbles. In the early morning, the houses opposite cast a shadow on the street and on the wall of…
