On trips like our recent one to the British Isles, I operate in at least two distinctly different photographic modes: landscape photographer (s my recent Scotland work) and street photographer. During our visit to Dublin I was almost exclusively in the latter mode. Dublin is a rich location for street photography. There are crowds of people, and the city has a vibrant, alive feeling. There are also lots of fascinating old and sometimes nicely weathered building.
We walked everywhere in Dublin, and of course we visited the lively Temple Bar district. (We stayed perhaps 10 minutes or so away.) It is an interesting and complicated area. There is a lot of really touristy stuff there, including some chain restaurants. But there are also interesting, small, funky places, like this used clothing store, that retain real unique character.
