Irish Rail in the Snow in Dublin—Today, 28 February 2018.

1 Comment

Snow is a real rarity in Dublin. After a little more than an inch, a ‘red warning’ was issued.

Irish Rail kept its passenger trains on the move, although some were running a little behind schedule.

I braved the arctic conditions and hoofed it up to my usual spot. If all goes well, I may head out again later on.

    I hate cold snowy weather, but the fact remains that the snow enhances the depth of your colors and naturally softens your shadows. These are beautiful shots which do just that.
