“Dublin is a city where there’s familiarity without friendship, loneliness without solitude” Brendan Behan I have always loved the rugged beauty of Dublin. There is a lot of charm in the old part of the city and a lot of warmth in the old brick buildings. Dublin has a lot of character and for a big […]
This winter was as any other winter in Ireland damp, cold and rainy. We were lucky to have our cozy apartment and our jobs and everything that kept life as comfortable as possible for the season. However the Irish government had decided to wreck our heads and make us feel bad about a life that […]
We are in the middle of the second lockdown for this winter, which is in stark contrast to the warm and cheerful atmosphere before the holidays. With the light dying early I didn’t manage to take many pictures of the city before Christmas, but as always it was a really pretty. As we are stuck […]
I love the warm and purple tones of Kodak Gold especially at sunset light. Lucky for me lockdown presented plenty of opportunities to walk around the city and the great weather and late sunsets made for some great walks in search of good light. I developed these more than a month ago, but I was […]
Dublin is divided in North and South Dublin by the river Liffey. The south side is full of equal parts of vintage charm and hipster vibe. Even though some might find it too posh for their taste, I certainly love its aesthetic. I love taking walks around the neighbourhoods on the south side, as they […]
A city that outdistances man’s walking powers is a trap for man. Arnold Joseph Toynbee I am lucky to be living in a city, which is very walkable. Dublin is a big city, but it does not feel like a concrete jungle. A huge part of it has remained unchanged for centuries, so it doesn’t […]
These are some images taken from inside and near my apartment. Living in the city centre, has been quite a privilege, because pretty much all the places that I like to go to were within my 2 km radius. I know that this is a difficult time for many people, but there is an aspect […]
Witness and stand back from Nature, that is the first step to the soul’s freedom. Sri Aurobindo These days we are all craving for open spaces. Looking at large expanses of sea water would certainly be a great therapy for most of us sitting at home every day. Looking back on pictures taken this year, […]
The second day of our stay on Inishmore was incredibly stormy. The rain had started the previous evening and the strong gusts of wind could be heard howling through the night. We had luckily booked a B&B right next to two of the three functioning pubs, so we visited one of them for lunch and […]
It has been a strange winter, with a lot of reflection and some challenges. I had a lot on my mind and for some reason I completely forgot to update the blog. After the holidays and up to the end of February I only shot and developed one film. I have a huge backlog of […]
Ireland is like no other place under heaven. George Bernard Shaw Ireland has a certain warmth and vibrancy, which one would not expect from a country where the sky is almost always grey. I have always admired the brave mix of colours which can be found from people’s gardens, to front doors, to pub interiors. […]
The sun is setting in a burnt orange sky; the cliffs are black silhouettes; the sea, liquid silver. Laura Treacy Bentley, The Silver Tattoo My summer in Ireland was great as I got to experience a lot of new places with typical countryside charm. Kilmore Quay in county Wexford didn’t go far from the postcards in […]
