I love the glimpses of the city you get on a bus that’s hurtling around Dublin. And trying with a camera to capture those glimpses I especially like.
This photo is of a paste-up by Canvaz and comes with its own words, so I’ve nothing further to add.

A photo of where the rail tunnel from Heuston to Connolly goes under the Phoenix Park. As you can see I was waiting for cyclists to fill that space.
This is down by Islandbridge, on what was once upon a time the main road from Dublin to Galway.

A photo of the weir on the Liffey at Lucan in west Dublin. The entrance to my studio is just along to the left, so to take this involved a short walk down through the woods and over the bridge.

A photo of a Dublin tradition for you. It’s the start of the Liffey Swim taken last weekend.
From the start here at Rory O’More bridge, to as far as O’Connell Bridge, I walked along the quays following the Liffey Swim as I listened to shouts of “You’re gonna get dysentry”. The rest of the [...]
Here’s a night time photo of Dublin’s newest bridge over the Liffey, the Samuel Beckett Bridge taken during a stroll in the docklands.
This is my first photo I’m not letting you enlarge - simply because being a handheld night-time shot it just isn’t good enough quality.

Em, I take pictures of streets in Dublin. Sometimes they’re ruined by tourists looking like tourists. Sometimes they’re ruined by just people. Which is probably why so many of my paintings tend to have no people - as you’ll see shortly when I post a whole load of new paintings.

Do you ever think when you’re on a bus going down Dublin’s quays that the quays on the other side of the Liffey are like a background in an epic cartoon chase?
Well anyway, I took this photo of some houses on Lower Ormond Quay from upstairs on a bus, an ordinary Dublin Bus rather than [...]
Another Dublin city centre photo for you. This is the Literary Parade in St. Patrick’s Park by the cathedral.
I took this picture from Bull Alley Street. If Nicholas Street and Patrick Street weren’t so crude in how they manage traffic I might go in the park more often. If you go in you can [...]
A photo of some windows by the Viking Boat sculpture in Dublin, where Essex Quay meets Wood Quay - though technically the windows are on Lower Exchange Street next door to the former church of Ss. Michael and John, itself the former Theatre Royal of Smock Alley.

As a background I prefer the plain canvas of a dark raincloud than that of a pure blue sky. These might well be football boots and not runners, but the rook is a rook. And I’m not responsible for putting either up there.
