St Patrick’s Day Fireworks
Fireworks lit up the sky over Cobh last Sunday night, St. Patrick’s Day. We shot it from across the water from the park on Haulbowline.
Picking up the pieces on St. Patrick’s Day
Workers collecting the fencing after the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Cork in 2004. Notice the lack of clear lines on the road surface of the South Mall, and the boarded up construction site in the background. The buildings might look much the same, but the roads are clearly marked out now.
