Summer, Ireland, 2011


Since I've posted tons of other Dublin images on my website over the years I tried not to repeat myself too much here, but when it comes to the Forty Foot in Sandycove I just can't help myself!

at the Powerscourt Waterfall

My friend's daughter snapped this photo of me lounging on the lawn by the Powerscourt Waterfall in Wicklow. To me it looks look like an image that would appear on an album cover from the late sixties so if I ever decide to record a bunch of cover versions of sixties tunes this will definitely be the cover photo!

The girl in the lower right hand corner of the frame (who happens to be the same one who snapped the above photo of me) gives you an idea of the scale of the Powerscourt Waterfall (Ireland's highest).

Below are some snaps of the Dublin Pride Parade, which I watched from O'Connell Bridge.

Watching Laura Marling play Vicar Street. She was terrific and I swear I've never seen a more devoted crowd.

Finally, some assorted images of Dublin:

Botticelli Ice Cream Bar, Temple Bar, Dublin

Botticelli's in Temple Bar has the best gelato I've ever tasted. Pistachio, yum!
