Dublin after dark
17th January 2014
Not long back from two busy days in Dublin. Three of our four children live in Dublin so it was great to catch up with them all. We had a lovely meal together last night , it was lovely though we did miss our daughter Aisling who is in Singapore ( a bit far to come for a dinner)
I did not get much chance to use the camera, but I was in the town centre about an hour after sunset and took this photograph of the GPO and the Spire. I deliberately wanted a slow shutter speed to blur the people and the bus. I had no tripod so had to lean against a monument to keep the camera steady for the half a second exposure, but I seemed to be waiting ages for the bus to arrive !
