Jaysus, I nearly dropped me phone when I spotted this scene in the Musée d’Orsay like. There’s your man on the left, pure glued to his iPhone, probably updating his Insta or whatever, and the other fella hanging on to some pamphlet or other. And there in the middle, this massive marble yoke, probably worth…

Ever wonder how they clean the high up windows of the Cork Opera House? Wonder no more. It’s with a really long pole that reaches to the top!

I spotted this scene while walking up the hill next to the harbour in the old town of Puerto del Carmen. The peeling paint of the window frame attracted my attention, but then the modern signs stood out in contrast to the white painted wall. Just one of those things I like about looking around.

A cat sits on the slipway in the old town of Puerto del Carmen in Lanzarote, surveying the damage to a boat. Or maybe he’s just enjoying the last rays of the sun on a warm January evening.

The setting sun cast a lovely colour on the cliffs of Los Gigantes in Tenerife while I was packing the car. We had just eaten in a nice restaurant and were going to drive down to the harbour on the other side of town when I saw the cliffs lit up this way. Quick as…

It was October 2019 and JD Sports had yet to open their shop on Patrick’s Street in Cork. The back of the building, on Drawbridge Street, featured JD Sports hoarding, but now it’s derelict, with “TO LET” signs in the windows, and the SAVOY entrance is boarded up. A sign of the times. The city…

We were on our way to lunch when I spotted this gentleman sitting on a crate, chatting to a person in a newspaper kiosk.

I’m not a huge fan of anchovies, but the way these fish were displayed caught my eye. The silvery fish created an almost hypnotic pattern across the vendor’s counter, their tiny bodies catching the harsh market lights in a way that demanded to be photographed.

Sometimes you have to stop and let humanity go past when there are too many people around.
