Urban Canals.158

Sticking with our theme of rainbows to welcome 2024, I’ll share a few last photos of the Salmon Weir bridge & the River Corrib, which drains from Lough Corrib (largest lake fully inside the RoI, if I recall well) down to the ocean at Galway City.

KL’s central Merdeka Square, not looking very gardeny since they’d fenced it off and seemed to be relaying the sod…

County Views.127

And now we’re back to County Galway’s lovely Connemara National Park for the rainbows and glimpses of sunshine with which we welcome 2024. May the year bring us all kindness and light in abundance.

Coasting.87

Here we are, already on the last day of 2023. So I’ve decided to throw a few more Irish rainbows and views of one of the most stunningly beautiful places I visited over the course of this year. To end the year on a high note, I’m sharing here any remaining photos of the Sliabh Liag cliffs in County Donegal. My guidebook tells me these are much higher than the more famous Cliffs of Moher, down in County Clare south of Galway. I’ve left many similar photos in the gallery below, so that you get a sense how colors and contrast on the cliffs and sea change as the clouds scuttle past in the – at times frighteningly strong – winds.

City Lights Video Bonus

A bonus video from a harbor walk that (my cousin) Sam & I did en route to a concert during his visit in October, for those with bandwidth to view it – posting it separately in hopes it’ll work better this way.

Islands.47

Soon, I’ll actually start more carefully sorting and curating my Ireland photos. Any day now, I promise. For now, we’re grouping the relatively-appealing shots I took in a given location into larger posts. Here, a historic and religioussite of importance on Inishmore (Aran Islands) called The Seven Churches / Na Seacht dTeampaill.

From The Air.37

We’ll call these both Massachusetts, since I no longer recall what we might have been flying over when I took these last-remaining photos from the flight between A’dam and Boston late on the 18th of August.
