David's Images of the Day Photoblog
North Bull Lighthouse at the Entrance to Dublin Harbor at the End of Bull Wall (most of which is now underwater). Image taken with a Leica V-Lux 6 camera (ISO 100, 17.7 mm, f/2.8, 1/320 sec).
We were only in Dublin for two days. The town was crowded with additional tourists and US Naval sailors because Navy was playing Notre Dame. I finally found a working cash machine, but it only had 50 euro bills which were hard to use for small purchases. In the morning I joined a Field Trip for a hike in Howth. Later in the afternoon, I took a series of images as the students and staff went through security before boarding the ship. Security was looking for alcohol and other contraband (including food).
International Restroom directions and reflections Selfie in Granite. Image take with a Nikon 1 V1 camera and 10 mm f/2.8 lens (ISO 200, 10 mm, f/4, 1/125 sec).
