Where the Lizandro Meets the Sea

A surfer, fresh out of the water, with her body board while a couple nearby walk and photograph the beach. What you might notice from the waves and the way the dress of the woman on the far left is whipped about is the wind. No wonder surfers love this part of the world! This beach is inside the Ericeira World Surfing Reserve so you'll find surfers here when the waves rise and come thundering on to the sand.

Henry Street, Slowed Down

A quarter of a second is all it takes to turn a busy footpath into a river of ghosts. I planted myself on Henry Street, dropped the shutter speed right down, and let the lunchtime crowd smear themselves across the frame while the New Yorker models behind them stayed pin-sharp and perfectly bored. It's the opposite of the shot I put up a few days ago, where I caught a Deliveroo cyclist mid-pedal.

Silhouettes on Henry Street

I was waiting on Henry Street and spotted the deep shadows cast by the buildings, so it occurred to me that silhouettes would become a good subject for a photo. Luckily, a Deliveroo cyclist came along then and I captured him motionless as he rode past.

Last of the News Stands

I was surprised to see a news stand on O'Connell Street. It was just outside Eason's too, where they sell newspapers and magazines as well. What caught my eye first was the news stand, but then the man extending his arm with his phone to pay for his purchase. A new form of payment for an old form of news. Dublin is great for street photography. So many opportunities for moments.

The Log That Caught the Sunset

A single weather-beaten log, marooned on the foreshore. It was nudged back and forth by the waves coming in and out but in the moment this photo was taken, the sky was reflected in wet sand and the log was beached. Safe from the incoming waters.

Soft Water, Hard Rock

This is a small section of O'Sullivan's Cascade in Kerry. The lovely sound of the water falling through the rocks is soothing. The picturesque scene in front of me does the opposite as I worry about composition and, "Did I get a good photo of that?"

Showdown at Cyprus Avenue again

Last night was our second time seeing Showdown – The ELO Experience play at Cyprus Avenue, and I think they might even have been even better than the previous time!
