Horses out on bail. It was more by chance that I happened to walk by Smithfield horse fair today and only afterwards did I read about the new regulation: In January this year by-laws were passed to limit the controversial horse market to twice a year, one in March (today) and one in September, with tightened regulations for trading licences, under age participants and animal welfare. Without knowing it, I might have taken some pictures of historical value. At the same time the amount of security must hav...

8220;It’s all over now! 8221; they sing and timing couldn’t have been better really. Two weeks ago I left the Netherlands and with them an era of my life.

Month: August, 2013. August 22, 2013. Dublin – A Summer’s Tale. It’s almost as if this exceptionally warm and long-lasting summer has finally freed Dublin from its state of shock, caused by the sudden recession back in 2009. Not only rating agencies attest economical uplift this year, also the social and cultural life of the capital experiences a revival – or could I say. Since over a year dozens of volunteers have been frantically working to realize Granby Park. Source: Granby Park website). Granby Park...

Dublin’s Ghost Estates | nomadic stories
https://kanairo.wordpress.com/2013/11/18/dublins-ghost-estates
Dublin’s Ghost Estates. I know it has been a while, so I will try a fresh start with something quite interesting, yet slightly upsetting. I am going to introduce you to two of Dublin’s ghost estates, shocking reminders of the “celtic tiger” era, the Irish economic craze that abruptly ended in 2009. I captured these morbidly picturesque views this summer on a cycle between Dublin and Portmarnock, just about ten kilometres North of the capital’s city centre. Affected areas are believed to be concentrated i...
