Boland’s Mill

Another Saturday, another photowalk, this time around Dublin’s Docklands with about 30 photographers for the Scott Kelby photowalk. Redmum, McAWilliams, Darren were there and I also got to meet Jennifer Farley, whose blog I’ve been reading for a while now, for the first time.

We got a bit of shooting time in before the heavens opened and it was more a leisurely stroll and a chat for me (as per usual on these things). I did get a couple of photos though. I’m up to my ears in processing for clients but I couldn’t resist doing just one from the day. This is one of the Boland’s Mill buildings in Ringsend. I’m ashamed to admit, I didn’t know the history until google told me that the rebels took refuge here during the 1916 Rising.

    I love this building. I kind of like that it hasn’t been reclaimed and refurbished. It has such character as it is.

    Hi Claire

    Terrific picture and nice to get a bit of history too. It was nice to meet you before heading back out into the torrential rain. Really enjoyed the photowalk and hope to do another one soon.
