The photos thread

When browsing through my photos and videos for a view of Howth Head, I realised I have some stunning sunset captures in winter, looking the opposite way, obviously, down Dollymount Strand and dunes, back towards the city.

I suppose I have found it hard to go through most of them up until now as most of them involve the late Cooper.

Here’s a selection of Winter moods.

It's what Turner understood so well.
In many ways I prefer winter photos to summer ones. Where is Howth Head, exactly?
Your dog likes fossicking around, doesn't he?

Did love.
Poor dog died a few days before his 2nd Birthday which would have been 30th of June.

Howth Head frames the North end of Dublin Bay.
I have a ton of photos/videos taken from Bull Island/Dollymount Strand which is essentially a sandbar running along the northside of the bay from the North Bull wall of the port entrance back towards Howth.

There’s a wooden bridge and a newer causeway in the middle of the island joining it to the mainland at Clontarf and St. Anne’s Park, from which I have another ton of photos/videos.

I agree with you. I think the winter light is much more interesting and varied.

Ah now, of course! Should have picked it up. Howth Castle and Environs, or Here Comes Everybody (Finnegan's Wake).
Sorry about your dog. They can be very good companions, can't they? By the way, was his name inspired by Interstellar, by any chance?

Nah. He was called Champ by the lady I got him from. But myself, the missus and my young lad looked at him and thought, he doesn’t look like a Champ.
He’s mad, but a beautiful colour. Red or Copper….. let’s call him Cooper. He looks like a Cooper.

Simple as that.
