Across the Nano Nagle Bridge
This footbridge was built in the 80s and is an indispensable connection between Grand Parade and Sullivan’s Quay in Cork. Seeing the trees in this photo reminded me that there aren’t many trees in the City Centre any more. 🙁

A few photos from the 2023 Cork Pride “party at the port” on Kennedy Quay. There was a huge crowd there, with people coming and going all the time. A band played the hits, followed by a few words from the Lord Mayor of Cork, and then the drag queens came out to entertain the…

The McCurtain Street Building Site
Today was Robert’s funeral, so here’s a street photo he would like. It’s got layers, it’s got people, it’s got a changing city, from the old to the new. Robert, you will be missed.
