Giant Bubbles in London

A man created huge bubbles in London with two poles and string with little loops, and one huge loop. Adults and kids watch and try to burst them.

Away back in 2016, when the Rebel Street Photography group when to London for the day we passed by this man creating huge bubbles. Adults and kids alike were entertained!

Surreal Flowers in Dublin

A woman clutches a bouguet of flowers next to a large display of flowers for sale on Grafton Street in Dublin.

A woman stands next to a display of flowers for sale in Dublin last October.

I played with the colours here a little. A bit of fun on an image that was too noisy, and too dark.

The Eye Sees All

Graffiti on a wall. An eye in a triangle with a starry background overlaid on the face of a screaming bearded man.

This graffiti caught my eye when I walked past. It was on the corner of Barrack Street and Fort Street in Cork. The eye sees you and the man screams at you.

It’s long gone now, this photo was made in 2019!

The Ice Cream Line

Parents and I presume children (unseen), line up next to an ice cream van outside a park with railings.

In the future we won’t talk at all

People ordering food in McDonalds using their kiosks. Four people are at the machines, mostly dressed for the night in dark clothes and coats while one young woman is dressed as if it wasn't cold and wet outside.

We just tap tap tap on the screens to order. The man watching me take the photo never said a word either.

It was Halloween, did you notice the horns on her head?

Prepping for a 70th birthday

Two people walking up the steps of a narrow street. They have two balloons in the shape of a 7 and a 0, and a large fake bottle of champagne.

Place your bets at the races

Before the races start at the Point to Point, the bookies are quiet. Signs and umbrellas and a few people.

I’ve only been to a few point to point or other horse races, but you can rely on there being bookies present to take your money.

A Jack Russell lying in the shade at the recent Dawstown Point-to-Point horse racing. It was warm, and the sun was bright, so he made a beeline for the shade afforded by his human dad standing nearby.

The Horse in the box

A horse in a horsebox looks out at me from across the road.

On the day before the Dingle Races I saw a horse looking out of a horse box. His owner had gone into the nearby petrol station and came back a few minutes later.
