The still of a calm say in Dublin, Ireland's capital city and its famous River Liffey reflecting all above.

In the left of this image is the Jeannie Johnston, a replica famine ship and through the back of the scene is the now iconic portion of Dublin's modern skyline - the Samuel Beckett Bridge projecting into the sky.

Join me on a photography tour in Dublin to photograph the city, its modern and old scenes.

Early morning, after the bright pink awesomeness of the first sunlight, more subtle scenes appear in the brightening sky.

They say the weather is one of the most talked about topics of conversation here in Ireland, the past few weeks would probably prove that.

The end of winter saw snow storms, spring was cold with some blisteringly hot days and now we have stormy conditions as we enter May, many column inches and headlines have been dedicated to the topic of the unusual weather.

I'm not boasting but Ireland is surely one of the best countries to live in. It's scenic, there is no doubt, it's compact and easy to get around.

There is nowhere better to be at sunset than the west of Ireland, the mountains and valleys soak up the low rays of sunshine coming from the Atlantic.
