A photography collection about Dublin City, from the buildings, the architecture, to the people and the many little sights and quirky subjects that make up the heart and the soul of Dublin.

It has been a pretty dark start to the year in Dublin so far. Most days have been fairly cloudy, so when there was a break in the gloom, we decided to go for a nice walk along the pier in Dún Laoghaire, and of course it was a nice opportunity for some of my first photos of the new year.
Intending to get the most from the beautiful weather that we have been having recently, we set out to the north of the city, to Clontarf one evening to witness the sunset over the bay and the iconic Poolbeg Towers. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I ended up with a spectacular show, courtesy of the right timing and the beautiful evening.
Last weekend, in the midst of the June heatwave, I got to spend a little time in Dalkey. As it was such a lovely day, I wanted to capture the sea and so I went to Colliemore Harbour, which I was told would be a good viewing spot. It was indeed, and from there, I had a great vantage point out to Dalkey Island, as well as the surrounding sea and Dublin Bay.
A few weeks ago, on a beautiful spring morning, My Wife and I headed out to the picturesque village of Malahide, north of Dublin City. The aim of our visit was not to see the village though. Instead we wanted to do the coast walk from Malahide to Portmarnock.
