Heuston Station with Tri-Colour Lighting: North Side View.

(Hint: if you aren’t on Brian’s site, click on Tracking the Light to get the full view!).

The other day I offered a view of Dublin’s Heuston Station lit for St. Patrick’s Day.

A day or so later, I rode by on the top of a double decker bus, and it occurred to me that I’d missed the image.

By showing the station face-on, I inadvertently minimized the effect of the lit Irish Tricolour.

What do you think?

Dublin Heuston Station Green for St. Patrick’s Day

It’s become an annual tradition to bathe Dublin’s iconic buildings with green light on the run up to St. Patrick’s Day. I exposed this view of Heuston Station on March 12, 2015 using my Lumix LX-7.

For me one of the most effective times to make night photographs is when there’s still a hint of daylight remaining.
