Glasnevin graveyard, walking from the newer toward the older graves. It\’s a calming spot (yes, I know it\’s a graveyard). Feels odd to be looking at colour photos again. I need to dev some slide film or something.

Vaults

Vaults
The vaults at Glasnevin Cemetery in Dublin. Not the kind of place to be walking around at night if you\’re of the paranoid, \’things really do go bump in the night\’ crowd. Or during the day if you\’ve got someone with you who was planning to sneak up on you when you were composing a photo.

Departing This Life

Departing This Life
Shuffling off your mortal coil. Moving from this life into somewhere (hopefully) more pleasant. I am an Ex-Parrot! Peace and quiet for ever-more, if you disregard the thousands of tourists, at Glendalough in Wicklow.

Grave Rambling

Grave Rambling
Another of my frequent trips to rural graveyards. This one, just outside Midleton on the road to Castlemartyr in east Cork is tucked away at the side of the road next to an infamous biker pub. It’s a small graveyard with a mix of old and new plots. Photogenic old stones leaning over and loads of decorative iron crosses dotted about the stone wall lined cemetery. Is my ever growing tendency to photograph graves a bit too much on the morbid side? Maybe.. I’ll know I need an intervention when I’m spotted skulking around a gravestone in the pouring rain.
