The Occupy Wall Street protests have spread world wide and Ireland is no exception. We have Occupy Dame Street where a group of protestors have set up tents on the square in front of the Irish Central Bank. Last Saturday they staged a protest march through the city so I went along to take some photos. Protest photos are more fun because I can take photos of people on the street without them getting too annoyed. After all they are out there putting themselves on show so they usually welcome the camera. More photos after the break

This week saw the third annual Diageo Arthurs Day. I think the first one was a good idea but making it an annual event is a bit of a leap. Now into it’s third year I almost missed it completely if it wasn’t for the coverage in the newspapers the next day.
Dublin Zombie Walk
Dublin had its annual zombie apocalypse yesterday with thousands of zombies escaping St Stephens Green and making it as far as Temple Bar before being contained.
