We visited a market in Skibbereen a few years ago, where I saw this gentleman selling these woodworking items.

All Stripes and Horns
A Bongo Antelope at Bioparc Valencia was relaxing under the shade when he looked behind at the humans visiting. The baboons in an enclosure nearby were getting most of the attention, though.

Everyday Life at the Market
A vendor in a market in Malaga places Strawberries out on display. It’s difficult to believe this was 2018. It seems like a lifetime away.

When you’re betting on the economy

The Blues Brothers in Action
The Cannonball Run brought a burst of excitement to the streets of Blarney back in 2018 despite the rain that day. It appears I only posted one photo from that day before. I must dig out more!

Next Stop: Shopping in Cork
Three women wait at the traffic lights on Grand Parade. They’ve all been shopping in NEXT.
It’s odd what Lightroom sometimes does to a photo when you correct for lens distortion. 🙂

Look down on Dunquin Pier
I remember the day I took this photo, in August 2020. When I arrived, a group of young women were taking selfies at this spot and from my perspective, they looked like they were standing on the edge of a cliff. It’s still dangerous, but it was a calm evening and there was plenty of space if you’re an invincible teenager, unafraid of your mortality.
At the time, only pubs that served were alllowed to open due to Covid restrictions, but B&Bs and hotels were open. Breakfast in our B&B in Dingle was strictly monitored, with guests having to book their times so the dining room didn’t become too crowded.
