Here he is again in the same spot with two "mass servers", "killing time at the prison" [??!!] - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000535065

Could this mean Collins Barracks, as in Michael Collins? It was Victoria Barracks until handed over in 1922, later renamed Collins Barracks.

According to the description on an exhibition of the Hogan-Wilson collection, he was responsible for compiling the collection, so is the Wilson of Hogan-Wilson. (The photographer was WD Hogan).

If it is Collins barracks, and he is at the prison, the District Military Prison was at the north end of the Barracks 25" Map Link

I think it is more likely to be Killing Time as in waiting about.

HOGW 138 is Wilson again, in front of the same window with another officer. Looks like the same time of day, cigarette in hand, thumb in his belt. I think it is the same day - that one is dated Oct 1922.

I'm inclined to agree with Niall McAuley that the title of this photo in the catalogue is more to do with waiting around. I know little about warfare, civil war or otherwise, but it strikes me it has ever been 95% hanging around / 5% frantic activity and terror. The titles that Denis J. Wilson gave to the photos in this Hogan-Wilson collection are not dispassionate cataloguer style at all, at all. This is from the press release that accompanied the NLI's 2010 exhibition, Witness to War...
Rev. Wilson composed titles for the photographs, and this text is in bold on the exhibition captions. Any amendments are noted in square brackets, but for the most part his text has not been changed. Rev. Wilson’s bias in favour of the Irish nationalists in the War of Independence, and subsequently for the Free State of the Civil War, can be clearly seen in his choice of captions ... Hogan may also have been biased, or he may have been acting from commercial interests as the newspapers were carefully censored by the Free State government during the Civil War...
