Lattice 2, Ireland 2012

The lattice in Post 1 was from Powerscourt Town House, off Grafton Street. We had coffee there and enjoyed sitting outside inside. Doesn’t make sense? A 1774 town house has been restored and converted to house more than 60 boutiques, and the original open courtyard has been covered in glass and steel – home of the café.

This second lattice is the least conventional of the ones I have photographed in that it is not a repeated sequence. This is so clearly handforged and just beautiful in its own right. I’ll let you know tomorrow where I found it.

Lattice 1, Ireland 2012

How do you photograph a city? You can’t really. I tend to find a theme through which I can illustrate at least part of my experience of being in a place. I found several even during our five day trip to Dublin and Galway, and here’s the first – lattice. I’ve got five different ones for you  and two dublicates. I wish I’d had time to find more but with a husband and two younger kids along there was a lot of point and shoot happening.

I’ve noticed that I have the honor of several Irish checking up on this Ireland thread. Wanna play a little game? Where was this photo taken? I’ll tell you tomorrow. No prices I’m afraid, but you earn the right to brag about your superior knowledge of Dublin if you get them all right 🙂
