Mullinhassig Wood & Waterfalls, Aghavrin.

Here are some pictures that I took a few weeks ago when I went for a walk in the Mullinhassig Woods. It’s a really small wood but Poulanhassig Waterfall is like a jewel in the heart of it.A mermaid in the form of a salmon is said to reside in the waterfall pool, who, if approached quickly in late evening, can be seen combing her hair on a stone  to the left of the waterfall. If a stranger is sensed, she dives to the bottom of the pool. Near the brink of the waterfall is a boulder, said to be the mermaid’s ‘table’. Another version has the mermaid enticing unwary anglers to the bottom of the pool, where they spend the rest of their existence releasing fish from the hooks of fellow anglers. As you may have guessed I didn’t get enticed to live out the rest of my days in the rock pool.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures.

Misty Morning.

I was up early this morning and was lucky to look out the window and see the really thick fog on the ground. So I decided to try and get some pictures of it. Instead of getting pictures from inside the fog I went up to the cemetery in Curraghkippane so that I look down on the fog from above. It was pretty awesome up there, the view of the city was completely obscured which was pretty awesome.

After I left Curraghkippane I wanted to try and get a pictures of the fog on the river so I took a spin down to the car park by the grotto on the Lee Road. Once I got there there was a load of spider webs on the on the nettles by the river and they were after catching the moisture in the air which was pretty awesome.

As always I hope you enjoyed the pictures, feel free to share them and comment to let me know what you think.

Bye For Now,

Ciaran.

 

P.S. If anybody ever wants to get a print of any of my pictures send me a message and I can arrange it.

Galtee Mór. A sweaty day in the hills.

For years when I heard people talk about the the Galtee Mór I thought they were on about some kind of giant rasher, it turns out its a mountain. When I found this out I decided to go walk up it. I took my camera too because as you may have guessed I like taking pictures of things.

 

It was a great day for walking it was pretty much all blue skies and with the odd smattering of clouds, perfect weather for a sweaty walk in the hills. I hope you enjoyed the pictures let me know what you think in the comments below, thats all for now.

Peace and Love,

Ciaran.

The Fireworks display for Queima Das Fitas in Coimbra.

Last week in Coimbra it was the student festival of Queima Das Fitas, its week long festival with lots of parties and drinking(kinda similar to RAG week in Irish Colleges). At the end of the week there was fire works display. I managed to get some pictures of the fireworks that I was happy with, they are the best but they aren’t the worst pictures I’ve taken, I hope you enjoy them.

 

If I was doing it again I would set up my camera closer to the left bank of the river to get a better view of the city but I guess there is nothing that I can do about it now.

So let me know what you think of my pictures and feel free to share them with friends and co-workers.

Peace and Love,

Ciaran.
