  1. Urban Geometry at Night

    The brutalist architecture of Bishop Lucey Park seems to suit black and white night shots. This was only my first time trying to photograph it in such a way but I'll try again.

  3. This is me standing on the old walls of Cork where I took this photo in Bishop Lucey Park yesterday afternoon. The sun had already started to head to the horizon and it wasn’t even 3pm, but it did light up the mural on the wall and placed the ground in front of me in shadow.

  4. A Sunlit Afternoon on the Wall

    For many in Ireland, November is firmly in the winter months of the year. It seems to be a traditional Irish/Celtic thing because Met Éireann uses meteorological seasons which classify September, October and November as autumn.

  5. Bishop Lucey’s Pigeon

    If there's one thing that was a constant in the old Bishop Lucey Park in Cork it was the pigeons. They swarmed over the old city wall where humans were denied because of a fence around it. Sometimes the wall was thick with them, waiting for a child to come along and scream and laugh at them as they flew into the air in panic.

  11. I don't hate the new Bishop Lucey Park.

    I’m not a big fan of brown, and there’s a lot of brown in the new park. I do really like what they did with the old wall. That’s the slightly rough-looking grass bit in the second picture of my gallery. The old park had this cut off from the public behind railings, with stagnant water collecting at the bottom. Now, it’s an area where people can sit and walk around.

That’s the slightly rough-looking grass bit in the second picture of my gallery. The old park had this cut off from the public behind railings, with stagnant water collecting at the bottom. Now, it’s an area where people can sit on steps and walk around.

    I love that the old entrance is still there and that they removed the railing running around the outside.

    It’s disappointing to see that gravel was used so much. I imagine it has something to do with maintenance, but it would have been nice to see more grass. However, as it is now, there’s huge scope for holding open-air events there that aren’t beholden to the weather and wet grass.

    It will look nice in the warmer months when leaves return to the trees. It was a missed opportunity to use more colour. What would a dash of colour do to the mood of the park?

    I don’t hate it.

    Look for it on Facebook and you’ll find nothing but complaints unfortunately: Echo Live 1, Cork City Parks Sport and Recreation, Cork City Council, Echo Live 2.

  17. The Curious Crow of Bishop Lucey Park

    A curious crow watches me, possibly waiting for me to drop some food for him. Bishop Lucey Park several years ago in 2021.

  19. A mirror of a mural

    What caught my eye when I saw this in front of me in Bishop Lucey Park, was the man leaning against the railing seemed to mirror the pose of the figure in the large mural on the wall.

    The park itself is closed off now. This is a picture of a bygone era. Can’t wait to see the new layout of the park!

  21. Pigeons take flight

    I heard him say, "sorry", when his dog barked and scared all the pigeons, but he did me a favour. The pigeons in Bishop Lucey Park weren't doing much!

  23. Bishop Lucey Park in Cork is now a building site, but on this July day in 2023 it was just a quiet day in the city, with some cyclists, obviously.

  24. In contrast to the photo yesterday of the same bench in 2015 when a mural appeared on the wall, this photo from July 2019 features a blank wall.

    An elderly man, with his walker sits on the same bench. I hope he made it through the COVID pandemic.

  25. Surrounded by the sights of Cork

    I wonder if this man checking his phone noticed the mural behind him in Bishop Lucey Park. In this fragment of the mural you can see the old Roches Stores building, Mangan’s Clock and Shandon Bells.

    You won’t see that mural there now. This is a snapshot of it from 2015.
