Thanks, Gerry, for having taken this photo! Very, very beautiful! The sailing ship as well as the houses and the reflection in the water. I am just going to read your link! Those kinds of sailing ships are a non ending love of mine. A golden star!!!

Dear greetings, May

I'm glad you liked it May. The city was quite this morning with very little traffic. A great chance for a few photos despite the dull light!

Thank you sooooooooooo much for posting the history re the Jeanie Johnston Gerry! I'm so glad to read that one ship brought our ancestors to the Americas safely!!

A lovely photo of a beautiful ship Gerry. I'm so glad you posted the link to the ship as well. I enjoyed hearing the story! I couldn't help but think of the Kennedys who came over during the famine. while the reputation of that family is not untarnished, I remember well the noble standards and ideals that some of their sons stood for and I couldn't help but feel that Ireland has given us some of their best!

Thanks Bruce for the very kind comment. This photo becomes more appealing to me when I get all the feedback. Dublin if a real mix of the modern and the old architecture. I considered the modern offices to be an essential part of the picture as they represent the new beginning.
