Snow covered streets. The city is paralyzed when it snows:

The Sean O'Casey bridge. Lots of really unique bridges in the city:

One more. I really liked this bridge. Very Space Odyssey looking:

    Wow. Temple Bar Blizzard...incredible. You must make very large prints of that, and you should sell them

    All of my photos including the Temple Bar Blizzard are available for purchase at www.chickendrop.com. I just received a canvas of that one and it's awesome. The texture of the canvas makes it seem like a oil painting.

    Thanks! The trinity college shots were tricky. It was raining/snowing the whole time I was shooting and as soon as there was a break in the weather the courtyard flooded with students. Patience, patience.

    Temple bar Blizzard is a fantastic photo and should be hanging on a wall in a very large size print....like 80 x 120 inches at least....and should be on christmas cards thru Leanin Tree or Hallmark cards.......
