Christy Brown was born on 5th June 1932 in Crumlin, Dublin. He had 22 siblings of whom 9 died in infancy. He was an Irish writer and painter who had cerebral palsy and was able to write or type only with the toes of one foot. His most recognised work is an autobiography, My Left Foot (1954). It was later made into a 1989 film of the same name, starring Daniel Day-Lewis as Brown.

D*ckheads have and will park in Santry, Swords etc and fu*k off on their holidays making life a misery for residents of these areas. Clamping needs to be brought to suburbs around the airport. They park on green areas and block paths and driveways without a care in the world. There is high demand for access to the airport so where is the public transport? https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/there-is-unprecedented-pressure-late-bookers-face-300-fortnight-parking-charge-at-dublin-airport/a238049836.html #dublin

@irishcycle Amazing!
As an international student in #Dublin, I was commuting #Blackrock <-> #TrinityCollege daily some 23 years ago... the atmosphere was different!
Great to see the (positive) changes, #CycleLane, #tramway, etc., although of course not all his good in modernity (back then there was a "#NoToHighRises" fresco next to TCD, gone I guess!)
Then I guess the wind continues to blow from the North in the morning and from the South in the afternoon (reverse if you live in the North) !
Great show by #Hot8BrassBand at #TheAcademy #Dublin.

"Bull Alley" Your evening #painting today comes from a warm day when I was #cycling in southwest #Dublin and after a couple of sketches I cycled into the city centre and sat in St Patrick's Park so I could enjoy the cathedral beside it and the flowers and even the people. After buying tea I got my perfect bench so I could paint the Iveagh Trust buildings opposite, a scene I'd wanted to paint for many years. #Art #Ireland #MastoDaoine #MastoArt #Artist #Watercolour #UrbanSketching

James Connolly (Séamas Ó Conghaile) and Seán MacDiarmada, both signatories to the 1916 Proclamation, were executed on 12th May 1916.
Connolly had been so badly injured from the fighting that he was unable to stand before the firing squad; he was carried to a prison courtyard on a stretcher. Instead of being marched to the same spot where the others had been executed, Connolly was tied to a chair and then shot.

On Easter Monday, 24th April 1916, the Easter Uprising (Éirí Amach na Cásca) began. The Irish Volunteers and Citizen Army seized the General Post Office (GPO) and several key buildings in Dublin and demanded Irish sovereignty. Pádraig Pearse read out the Proclamation of Independence at 12:04pm from the steps of the building after his men had seized the GPO. 1/2

Being late was something he hated. He had an important tour to join, and he couldn’t afford to miss it.

He hoped they would make him happy.

Dublin is full of interesting moments to capture with a camera, and one of my recent favourites was photographing a couple waiting for the bus. They weren’t posing or even aware of my presence, but the scene was too good to pass up. :)

Seán O'Casey (Seán Ó Cathasaigh) was born at 85 Upper Dorset Street, Dublin on 30th March 1880. He was an Irish dramatist and memoirist. A committed socialist, he was the first Irish playwright of note to write about the Dublin working classes.

Shadows of Everyday Life
It’s a common sight in today’s world – a woman walking down the street, engrossed in her phone, completely unaware of her surroundings. But on this particular day, I noticed something that caught my eye. As she walked, her silhouette cast a clear shadow on the pavement, and the Nike swoosh on her runners was prominently visible.
Workers on the Tracks
On an overcast day near the train I was on, four men wearing hi-vis vests were busy repairing something on the ground. They worked in the shadow of a large container that stood on brick lined pillars, with a wall behind providing further support. While one man worked diligently, the other three were huddled together, engrossed in a phone.
In the peaceful harbour of Howth, Co Dublin, a small blue boat bobbed gently in the water. The sky was overcast and grey, a sign that rain might be on the way, but that didn’t deter people from coming out to walk along the pier and take in the sights and sounds of the bustling harbour.
