Celtic Tiger?

    Some pussycat with choppers like those! Great shot and some expression on Pussy's face! Of all the big cats I just love Tigers, they fascinate me!
  • Débora said:
    very intense expression indeed!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This tiger would have been caged in the red brick Roberts house, so your location is extremely accurate!
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Swordscookie And now the tigers in Dublin Zoo have a great time! Not stuck in cages at all, but now with carefully designed habitats... Watched the Zoo programme on RTÉ that was filmed during the snowpocalypse last year, and it was incredible to watch these beautiful creatures bounding around in the snow, having an absolute ball. Such gorgeous markings!

    Débora Imagine being a small (or large) mammal facing that expression with nothing between you and those incisors!

    Definitely the corner of O'Connell Street and Bachelor's Walk, with Westmoreland Street in the distance, over the bridge. Peterson's Pipes are still around.

    Civility.
  • Gerry Ward said:
    ... and the base of the clock is still there on Hickey's Pharmacy!
  • Swordscookie said:
    I agree that this is in O'Connell Street just past the junction with Bachelors Walk! These crowd scenes are excellent for looking at dress, uniforms, conditions and the changes that have taken place in the meantime. The majority of the police on display here are DMP(G) with the bobby helmets with the exception of the Inspector/Officer on the left with either a sabre or walking stick. The senior ranks of the Garda retained these sticks as part of the uniform right up to the Conroy Commission in the late '60's. Kapp and Petersons were the shop on the corner and a source of great pipes and fine tobacco in the days when smoking was healthy and beneficial to all an sundry!

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/55597723@N02] And for us, a sobering thought.
  • Swordscookie said:
    I remember that! Not the opening of the Phoenix Park but the race that Sonia ran in that year. She was flying and put many fine male athletes far behind her. Great shot and a terrific way to remind us of the bounty that the Park has proven to be for people down through the centuries!

    Great shot of one of my favourite athletes!
