City Spire

The Dublin Spire is the worlds tallest sculpture. It towers above the rest of the city including the 16 story Liberty Hall from which I took this photo. Some love the Spire, some hate it. I fall into the former camp. The Spire narrow and insignificant as it is on the Dublin skyline does finally give that skyline an icon that can be recognized as uniquely Dublin. I was lucky to get this shot, once a year Liberty Hall opens it’s roof top to the public and each group only gets a couple of minutes on the top to admire the view and take photos. I had to go to the back of the queue a few times to get some good shots but it was worth it in the end.
