On Friday I found myself in the beautiful surroundings of Doneraile Park in Cork. The weather was fresh (but cold), daffodils were beginning to bloom and Spring was in the air. I was preparing for a wedding so I was exploring the park to find the best locations to take photographs. After about an hour I took a break in the newly opened Tea Rooms and enjoyed a refreshing (and warm!) coffee. Not only is it a lovely, relaxing place to take a break but the staff are friendly and generous too.
Afterwards I was making my way back to the car park when I met Pat taking his pet owl Solomon for a walk. (Or should that be taking it for a fly?!) I had a great chat with Pat about falconry and his love of Solomon (and birds in general) was obvious. It’s great to talk to people about something they are passionate about. Enthusiasm is contagious.
Impressive, huh?
thanks for that,!!! very nicely written article, best of luck with the photography business,cheers Pat Mc.
belated happy new year Kevin, you are a great photographer, I particularly like the “Girl on fire” one, hope to meet you again in the park, I now also have Rebekka and Abigail, stunning owls, with, hopefully a white-faced Scops to come this year if the parents breed successfully, keep in touch, cheers, pat mc.
