Elvis the Taxi Driver
Derry “Elvis” Coughlan is a local taxi driver in Cork. Here he was on St. Patrick's Street in 2021. He was walking towards an older man with bags of shopping who would probably need a lift home. I don't think I've seen Derry around since then. Not someone who appears to have an online presence either.
A chance match in Catalonia
I spotted her first, then the bush, then the coincidence. Walking through Palafrugell one July afternoon, I saw this lady carrying her shopping bag back from the market. I kept the frame cropped tight: no face, just arm, fabric, and the tanned, weathered hand holding a shopping bag off to the side. This is probably a journey she has made many times before.

They put on a fabulous performance that […]https://inphotos.org/2026/04/14/moya-brennan-at-cork-opera-house/
Sant Martí from the Side Street
Several years ago I'd been wandering around the narrow streets of Palafrugell's old town when I came across the Sant Martí de Palafrugell and I loved to see it in the early morning light. The sky was perfectly clear which isn't great but the surrounding streets were quiet and it seemed appropriate. Everything was still. The unfinished tower of the church caught my eye, making me think of the cathedral in Málaga. The original church on this site dates from around 1019, but the present […]https://inphotos.org/2026/04/12/sant-marti-from-the-side-street/
