I‘m always on the look out for a new look, a new way of defining myself. :-/ Today, working from home, I look like this:

What? Not attractive? I think I look hot!!! Ahem…

Okay, here I am being cute instead:

Best. Lunchbreak. Ever.

I began in Stephen’s Green Dome, watching the snow fall.

I went down to take some artsy fartsy photographs of the snow-covered Green.

I turned a corner to be see the most evil thing ever – a gang of Dublin teens.

In truth, I’ve never seen so many complete strangers enjoy themselves so much…and so spontaneously.

Ultimately it was so much fun and it was very heartening. Some of the ‘fighters’ had even developed their own unique throwing technique.

Some were happy to just stand back and watch it all go by.

No one seemed to mind me taking photos of them and some even posed.

What were the chances of me escaping without being hit? Ahem, I hadn’t a snowball’s chance in hell. More snow tomorrow please.

(And I know I’m getting a little obsessed with the snow pictures, but who cares – I can’t remember the last time we had this much snow)

Well, yesterday evening, the DARTs to Greystones were cancelled and traffic was crazy, so we decided to go to the cinema instead. On my short walk down to the IFI, I took these few photos. Dublin can be so beautiful.

And it’s amazing the things you never notice until you have a camera in your hand.

1 hour and 20 minutes later, I am just around the corner from work.
