[Leica] Bloomsday 2022 in Blackrock, Co. Dublin

[Douglas Barry]

Scenes from today's James Joyce's Bloomsday festival in Blackrock which 
had street theatre on the Main St. with both extracts and music from the 
book.

I had been going to head over to the Forty Foot at Sandycove for the 
traditional morning swim photographs, especially as it's 100 years since 
the publication of Ulysses, and meet up with friends for dinner, but 
haven't been well and parked that idea. There's a dreadful lurgy 
levelling many people over here. It fairly flattened everyone in the 
house, and I'm just recovering after a couple of courses of antibiotics. 
So a quiet Joycean centenary for me as I just took a quick set of shots, 
and left.

Nine photos in all, and all taken with my Sony A7II with FE Sonnar 
55/1.8. I brought too short a lens as there was a big crowd so I was 
further away from the actors than I would have liked.
Can be seen larger.
