    Great details in the dress and I wonder how many did not come back.

    Vab2009 I know! That's always the bitter sweet thing about photos of soldiers...

    Nice perspective.
  • known order said:
    Great photo. It gives a really good idea of how people dressed at the time, children, women and men, the detail is so good. It's hard to imagine this is less than 100 yrs ago.

  • Tammy said:
    is it me or does the river seem high? Also, can anyone verify if the street lanterns on the bridge are the same or have they been replaced with replica's?

    Tammy According to this interesting Dublin street lighting site, the gasoliers were "restored" around 1998-2003 - www.archiseek.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=3968
  • ccferrie said:
    this was before the bridge was widened so the lamps on this side may have been changed.

    beachcomber australia Re your note, Walter Osborne's 1889 painting shows a bookseller near the same spot (just a little further to the left where the hand-cart is). See comments here -

The Future is Now

  • Carlos Alberto Zapata said:
    Maravillosa captura, paisaje, composición, encuadre. FELICITACIONES !!!
  • Bob Dros said:
    This autogiro, however, appears to be a Pitcairn, designed and built in the U.S.A.
  • Alejandra Garcia said:
    This picture is incredible. I wonder if the person who took this photo was inside another helicopter to get this shot.
