There are a lot of pictures of Cork from this spot. But I mean LOOK AT IT! So lovely. 😍

Shandon Above the Shopfronts

Cork’s Pope Quay packs more character into two hundred metres than most cities manage in a mile. I was standing on the south bank with the River Lee between us, drawn initially by the sweep of that pedestrian footbridge. It’s a cl...

Shandon Above the Shopfronts

Had a nice lunchtime walk to the Marina promenade and back a couple weeks ago. The sun was out and the Korean food was tasty 😋 #cork #riverlee #ireland

More moss and tiny flowers on Irish stone walls, this time next to the River Lee.

Bachelor’s Quay at Twilight

Blue hour is that magical window between sunset and full darkness when the sky becomes this gorgeous gradient from deep blue to warm orange. That’s what I saw on a cold December evening looking across the River Lee at Bachelor’s Quay.

Millennium Bridge After Dark

The Millennium Bridge in Cork doesn’t wobble like the Shakey Bridge but it probably sees a lot more foot traffic as it links Pope’s Quay and Kyrl’s Quay and Cornmarket Street.

The bridge was built in 2004. I have some photos of that which I may dig up and link from here later.

Sullivan’s Quay After Dark

I’ve photographed Sullivan’s Quay plenty of times but this was a little experiment shooting in highlight-priority mode. I brightened it up later but I like the way it came out and love the yellow reflected light on the River Lee.

Here’s Sullivan’s Quay at sunset many years ago from much the same view point!

lol well this blew up. Thank you! Goodness. Processing. #boat #fediboat #Boatstodon #BoatLife #Boativerse #boating #houseboat #offGrid #offGridLiving #London #RiverLee #LeeNavigation

So I live on a #boat now and everything gets organised through one Meta product or another - seemingly mostly Facebook and WhatsApp.

I have grudgingly joined some WhatsApp groups, but I refuse to book face.

So I’m trying some hashtags. Is #fediboat is a thing or maybe #Boatstodon? #BoatLife? #Boativerse? Obviously #boating. I can’t tell if any of these are used as I’m on a tiny server! #houseboat

Or maybe local- #London #RiverLee #LeeNavigation

Anyone out there?

When the Lee Became a Mirror

The Banks of the Lee were quite different by the Peace Park in 2004. Trees and shrubs obscured the river from the small park. It looks so different now.

Inniscarra’s Historic Stone Bridge

This is the narrow bridge that crosses the River Lee near the Ballincollig Royal Gunpowder Mills.

I found out today while doing a little research that the bridge was built in 1805, replacing an older 6 arch bridge. It’s very narrow, but a survey showed that 7,000 cars cross it every day!

A Storm Brewing

Cows waiting to be milked in a field near the Coachford Greenway. It’s a lovely walk along the River Lee, opposite Farran Woods.

I had an umbrella, and it was a good thing too, as it started raining about ten minutes later.

Cork Before The Elysian

Remember Cork before The Elysian was built? It’s almost 20 years old now, so there are many people around who never saw Cork City Hall like this, without the tower block behind it.

Cork City Hall, completed in 1936, was built to replace the previous City Hall that was destroyed during the Burning of Cork by British forces in 1920. The building’s limestone facade and copper dome make it one of Cork’s most recognisable landmarks. This 2005 photograph predates the construction of The Elysian apartment tower, which began in 2006 and became Ireland’s tallest residential building when completed in 2008. The development of The Elysian and surrounding high-rise buildings fundamentally altered the skyline visible from this vantage point, making this image a valuable historical record of Cork’s urban landscape before its dramatic transformation during the Celtic Tiger era.

Golden Reflections on the River Lee

An evening walk along the River Lee near the Inniscarra Hydro Station a few years ago and we were rewarded with a lovely sunset shining on the banks of the river.

The Shakey Bridge is Gone!

In 2019, Cork’s riverside scene took on a rare and almost surreal quality as the beloved Shakey Bridge, or Daly’s Bridge, vanished for the first time since 1927. Locals strolling along the Lee were greeted not by the familiar wobbly walkway, but by its ornate white tower standing alone, flanked by colourful houses and lush gardens. The river, ever calm, mirrored the absence and the anticipation, while the city buzzed with stories of the bridge’s famous shake and the engineers’ promise to bring it back just as lively as ever.

The bridge is back now, and we visited recently. It still has its famous shake!

It’s the only suspension bridge in Cork City and the only surviving pedestrian suspension bridge of its kind and age in Ireland.

In 2003, the Dutch submarine, Dolfijn, or Dulfun, visited Cork for a few days. I happened to be around town and spotted it from Kennedy Quay where I’d been photographing the ships, buildings and machinery.

When it left Cork, it headed to Mallorca. September in Cork is nice, but I wouldn’t mind a few days there in October!
