Dublin Cycling tweetz:

This one on the corner of Guild Street gives me nightmares when it’s wet. The combination of the bend, parked cars, door zone, wet steel, upcoming junction and drivers trying to overtake on the bend to make the lights makes it a worrisome spot.

This one at the Coombe is also slightly off camber and treacherous when turning left with busses bearing down on you.

City Of – Irish Summer

I guess the wilder days became a story we forgot
The tennis court: a meeting place for those both flesh and not
And they passed into mystery, as far as we’re concerned
Their oath became their history that we then never learned

The Tennis Court – City Of

An unseasonal if musically timeless new EP from Dublin’s ‘City Of’ .

Four original songs embracing inventiveness, proggy elements and impressive musical chops from Stu Daly – bass; Sam Fitzpatrick – keys; Simon King – drums, percussion; Áine Murphy – saxophone; Ciarán Parnell – guitar; Reuben Teskey – vocals and guitar

Irish Summer

Solargraph, County Wicklow

Six months in the making.

On last week’s Broadsheet on the Telly, Luke Brennan showed off his impressive solargraphy, a pinhole  photographic method for recording the paths of the sun.

All you need is a bit of cardboard and a lot of patience.

Luke writes:

For those interested I wrote up a post on the Solargraphy, which I think is the first time it
has been done in Ireland, the post is at link below. Enjoy…
