When Recycling Gets Serious

This small garden caught my eye. It would be a nice space if not for the obligatory bins that every household must have. The left wall is a lovely deep blue, matching the colours of the flowers there.

The Watchtower and Seaside Blooms

The lifeguard tower at the end of the main section of the beach at Youghal. The beach does continue on, but the sand was green with algae and it was obvious it’s not used by humans much.

I love the matching colours in this photo. I spent a good few minutes kneeling in damp sand and dirt trying to get this photo.

Coastal Adventure in West Cork

Just a few months shy of ten years ago, we’d visited Sherkin Island and as we were leaving I spotted a man on a RIB talking to two others on their dingy. It was a lovely warm August day, just before school was about to start again.

In the background is the famous Baltimore Beacon, built in 1849 as a navigation guide.

Flying Hooves at Dawstown Point to Point

A few of the photos I took today at the Dawstown Point to Point. We’ve been very lucky in the last few years that the weather has been good when these races were held!

Woodworking Wonders from County Cork

We visited a market in Skibbereen a few years ago, where I saw this gentleman selling these woodworking items.
