Three pubs in Dublin
Warning! This post might make you thirsty.
I do love me some Irish pub. Of course I make the requisite visits inside when I can <ahem>, but most of the time I am shooting these from the exterior. But that's ok, as I find there is a lot of character among Irish pubs.
One of my favorites to shoot is the Oliver St. John Gogarty, which you see below. It's a short walk from The Temple Bar, which is the most famous (and most photographed, at least by me!) Irish pub in a town that's bursting with them. I love all those flags, and have shared many a photo of this place here in the past (and likely will do again).
Isn't this a fun looking Irish pub?
This next one is the Bison Bar, which from the outside is pretty easy to miss. So easy, in fact, that I have missed it many times though it is next door to my normal hotel there. But on my last visit we ended up there after some shooting (and while waiting for the light to change). I'm really glad we did! I thought this interior was really interesting.
I loved this wooden interior, and that light reflecting across the floor.
And lastly this is The Dame Tavern, which I have never been in (but there's always hope!). We were wandering around doing the photography thing and when I saw this scene with all the kegs stacked outside, I just really liked it...so here it is.
See? There's another pub just over there! LOL
Dublin is really a wonderful town which I immensely enjoy wandering in. I find there is a lot to aim the camera at, and there's always a pub to rehydrate and rest in. Good times!
