Inside a spooky shop

A woman passes, looking in at the Bubble Tea shop I'm looking out of. Plastic bats are flying around, suspended on thing string, to celebrate Halloween.

Argh, the bats! The bats! Well, they’re very realistic, aren’t they? Spotted in a Bubble Tea shop in Dublin last year around this time of year.

A Lifebuoy Saves Lives

The waters of Malaga harbour are quiet, but there are many people walking around as the sun sets over the city. A lifebuoy could be the difference between life and death.

I spotted this mural being painted in Malaga a few weeks ago. A few people gathered around to watch. The mural is a striking painting of a woman in a blue dress, sitting in front of a landscape and a sunset.

The painting is called, “Brisa Estival” or “Summer Breeze” by the artist, Lalone, according to this report.

Brisa estival es el título de esta segunda obra creada por el artista Lalone, un especialista en murales urbanos, y que se integra dentro del proyecto Atardeceres Larios. El artista propone una interpretación contemporánea de la obra Días de verano realizada por el pintor Vicente Palmaroli en el año 1885 y que se expone en el Thyssen malagueño.

(Brisa summer is the title of this second work created by the artist Lalone, a specialist in urban murals, and which is integrated within the Larios Sunsets project. The artist proposes a contemporary interpretation of the work Days of Summer by the painter Vicente Palmaroli in 1885 and which is exhibited in the Malaga Thyssen.)

The translation above was done by Firefox, but Google Translate translated the name of the mural differently. You can find the painting, “Summer Days” by Vincente Palmaroli here.

It’s a fabulous mural. If you visit Malaga, it’s well worth seeing.

Flooding in Fitzgerald Park

Fitzgerald Park in Cork City is a bit flooded after the recent rain. The children’s play area is totally flooded, as it’s lower than the surrounding ground, and the pond is overflowing onto the surrounding path.

They were waiting for the River Lee to overflow about an hour later!

Fab in the Sun

A man reading the Sun newspaper on the street. He wears a baseball cap, and is probably doing the crossword as he has a pencil in his hand. The word "Fab" is seen on an inside page of the paper.

Not so much real sun, but Sun, the newspaper. A man reads it on St. Patrick’s Street, Cork. He’s probably doing the crossword.

Photos at the Vatican

A woman takes the photo of another woman who leans against a small pillar near a fountain in St. Peter's Square, in the Vatican.

After the crowds have gone on a cold November day in 2017, I visited St. Peter’s Square in the Vatican for some photos, and came across two women taking advantage of the quiet for some photos.

The sun had already set, and it wasn’t 5pm yet, but it was nice to be in such a normally crowded area with hardly anyone about.

How often do we stand still on the street, surrounded by the urban environment, looking at a phone?

Eircom have notions

The double phone box on Proby’s Quay is looking the worse for wear these days. This is what it looked like on a bright July day in 2021. It hasn’t improved since.

Notions.
