Cobh Peoples Regatta, 2005

It’s been a busy weekend. I went down to Cobh tonight to see the firewords and capture the mood of the people in photos.. Everyone was in great form and the fireworks were a great end to the Regatta.

This is part 1 of a 2 part series of shots. Part 2 comes tomorrow and will have pictures from inside the Jeanie Johnston (Thanks Donogh and Ronan!) and shots of the band that played the night away…
Ryan was there too, and he has some stunning shots of the fireworks and the fairground!

Update! This blog was mentioned on Red FM a few minutes ago! I emailed them but didn’t honestly expect to hear anything back! Great!

Holy Shmoly yourself Donncha, now we’re talkin’ photography. Those images are just amazing, really!! You’ve got a gift too. That’s what needs to be seen.
You don’t need retouching on those, I wouldn’t touch ‘em with a 40 foot mast. Beautiful, georgous and what else can I say. Keep ‘em coming!
