Now it is horribly marred by the protective screen placed over following its vandalization by some odious crank.

The world in reflection
On a cold December night in 2018, I was taking photographs of reflected light in the puddles of the Docklands in Cork along with others from Blarney Photography Club.
Henry would have been on the light stick, and I’m sure I’ve posted other photos from the night, over the years as the lights are striking.
