Window on the Bay

Here is another old photo, this time from Newfoundland last year. The Ferryland Lighthouse has been converted into a visitor center and cafe. It serves lovely home made food and lemonade in picnic baskets that visitors can take down to the cliffs to watch whales swim by.

Flower Market

Also in Moore St there are stalls selling flowers. The flowers never look as nice as the fruit and vegetables on the other stalls. They seem older and less colorful beside the bright red, greens and yellows of the fruit and veg. Better selections can be found up on Grafton Street.

Fruit Market

The Moore St fruit market. The original photo is full of color but I’m in a black and white mode at the moment and I converted it and liked the result. On Saturday we walked through the market and when we got home I decided to take out this old photo. The fruit and veg looked much better than the awful packaged stuff we normally buy in the supermarket. We promised ourselves that some day soon we’ll go shopping in the fruit markets in town.

Coffee Bean

Coffee beans in a coffee stall in the Temple Bar food market. I think the stall is called Ariosa and they make one of the nicest cups of coffee in Dublin city center. The market is on every Saturday and well worth a visit.

Court Sunset

Sunset and the Four Courts. Going through some old photos I had put into a collection for further work I found a photo of the Four Courts that at the time I liked. Looking at it tonight I thought it wasn’t so nice but I still wanted a photo of the Four Courts so I went through the shots I rejected and found this one which I liked more.

Snow House

Yes, yet another snow photo. The last time I was taking photos there was snow on the ground so those are the photos I’m processing 🙂 Also I do realize that everyone in Ireland has about 2000 snow photos after the first few weeks of 2010 but I still think they are interesting, we so rarely get snow in Ireland. This is the nice old house in the corner of St Stephens Green. I’m not sure who lives there and I’m not sure I really want to know. The house is a nice old building backed by new not so nice buildings so I think it deserves mention on it’s own regardless of it’s occupants.
