Beautiful morning today at Islandbridge. #Rowing

Happy New Year from last night’s Howth Harbour fireworks display. #2025 🎉🥂🎉🎊🍾

Calling all stargazers✨ Irish aurora forecasters have predicted that the Northern Lights will likely be visible across large parts of Ireland on New Year's Eve.

Pale winter light filtering through cloud earlier today onto Sutton Strand for Christmas Eve. Peaceful today.

Hope rises with the morning light!

Memories of Christmas in Nancy , Place Stanislas, last year .

Not the best solstice sunrise ever at #Newgrange but the shortest day is upon us so we can look to the light. Happy Solstice @sullydaysleeper.bsky.social @katebielinski.bsky.social @bkates.bsky.social @eilishpower.bsky.social @averillarke.bsky.social @drmaryrogan.bsky.social

Lots of cloud but good to be here….30 minutes to go to #WinterSolstice sunrise at #BrunaBoinne #Newgrange

Last years solstice clouds at Newgrange - this was a wonder to behold . #WinterSolstice

Apologies to my friends & loved ones but I will not be speaking to anyone over Christmas as I’ve just got the new @robgmacfarlane.bsky.social proof 🤩

@aoifetdoyle.bsky.social Aoife ....you might enjoy this and other links about Notre Dame bsky.app/profile/news...

So lucky to be on front of the open fire….dog walked ….cat beside me …. Mellow….

Whose heart could not but be lifted at the sight and sound from #Paris of beautiful #NotreDame restored. A fitting tribute to have the world's Leaders gather in her honour. Praying some of the bon homie will translate into good sense, compassion & desire for world Peace 🕊🙏💞

First Mont D’Or of the season ! 😋 Tastes of #France 🇫🇷

On Bluesky liking isn't the same as on X ....reposting is where it's at. #AfghanWomenandgirls need you to share their stories because restrictions make them invisible & terrorised! #ShineALight Wake up, stand up & speak up. 🙏

The plight of #Afghanwomenandgirls is horrendous since the #Taliban were allowed to take power again. Their basic rights & freedoms in everyday life are restricted as well as the widely known stoppage of #Education. It is a situation which shames those who recognise & negotiate with the #Taliban #US
