On Saturday and Sunday 26-27 September, 2015, Dublin Port hosted a gathering of antique vehicles, mostly of the road-oriented variety.<\/p>\n

I made these photographs, which include a display of railway memorabilia by Donncha Cronin and Ken Fox.<\/p>\n

There was a grand array of buses on display, including a few like those that I\u2019d traveled on years ago when I first visited Dublin.\u00a0I thought the Soviet-era armour\u00a0was pretty cool.<\/p>\n

All of these images were exposed with my Lumix LX7.<\/p>\n
