A portion of Dun Laoghaire East Pier, looking towards Howth.
The almost totally ruined Dough Castle (1306) by Lahinch Golf course lurks under an impressively threatening sky.
On a very bright but cold day walking up Bray Head in the twilight of a winter's afternoon, we paused to take a look across Dublin Bay. For a moment, under the failing light, the plan of the bay was laid out clear: the promontory of Dalkey; Dalkey island and the ruined buildings & martello tower; Muglin's lighthouse; Howth and the Bailey lighthouse; and Ireland's Eye, dimly visible at the back. All with a sea I had no right to expect would be that blue. In the far left corner, the Bray Head cross looks over it all.
