We’re getting close now, to the darkest day of the year. I’ll be happy to be on the other side and heading towards daylight. In the meantime, it’s handy to be able to capture a few nice sunrises at the leisurely time of 8:45am.

Point to Point
I got the new(ish) 103X bus in this morning. It comes into town through the port tunnel, so I hopped out at the Point Depot and walked up to work via the East Link. Nice day for a stroll – a long enough walk that I could almost call it exercise, and I took a…
Right place, right time
Today’s started well. It may not keep it up, but it was pretty fab out there this morning and I was lucky enough to have time for a walk on Sandymount beach. According to my phone, it’s 13 degrees at the moment, and it definitely feels more summery than wintery. Carpe diem.
Great South Wall
I’m not getting many opportunities at the moment to get out and take photos, but I have managed to pop down a couple of times to the South Wall, cos it’s near work and on my way. There a small, but nice little beach along the road to the wall, and it’s a nice walk…
Trespassing in twilight
Lately I’ve been stealing time before work to take the dogs up to the fields for a run around. Them, not me. It’s about all I can manage, being awake and walking. Running would be asking too much. The grass is long enough to lose a dog and takes a bit of effort to lift…
The Liffey balance
Still. The liffey had a certain charm to it, in a topsy-turvy way.
Golden
Meath was looking pretty stunning this morning. I would have stayed there snapping for longer, but a curious herd of cows came to check us out and Pippa freaked and ran home.
Autumn has landed
We get a lot of fog and heavy mist out in Meath. Sometimes you can’t see 10 feet in front of you. And it can seem like the whole country is in the soup, but then you drive out of it on the approach to the M50 and it’s all clear. Here’s a few shots…
King of the castle
Caught this guy on the way across the Sean O’Casey Bridge this morning. He’s got the sun shining outta his …
View from the top deck
Taken from the misty front window of the Bus Éireann 103 this morning.
Following the light
Got off the bus this morning on O’Connell street at about 8.20am. Walked down Abbey street and through a lane way to get to the quays. From there, I could see a gorgeous golden glow in the sky, down towards the sea. It faded fast as I was heading down, and was gone by the time…
In the cold light of day
The temperature’s been up and down over the past few days. Today, it’s about 6 degrees outside at the moment, but it’s a bright sunny day, and it seems warmer. A few days ago, on the 29th, it was -2 at about 11am and there was a nice coat of heavy frost covering everything. Here…
Out in the cold
It was cold, but kinda nice looking this morning, so I got off the bus on O’Connell street, instead of staying till the end of the line at Stephen’s Green. I walked along the quays, crossing on the Sean O’Casey bridge. I couldn’t feel my fingers after taking photos for a few minutes. These are…
Hello? Is there anybody out there?
Stopped to take a few shots on the way to work today. I had to be careful not to wander too far into the fields. The fog was that heavy, you could easily get comfortably numb. Luckily, the trees stood their ground and marked the way back.
