Thank you for the information about Mariela 2011/4/25 Douglas Barry <imra en iol.ie> > A casual portrait of Aongus Collins - Irish political cartoonist and member > of Bray Camera Club - taken in the pub with my littlish Canon G9. With the > economy tanking/bumping along the bottom here, he's not short of subjects > to > graphify. > > http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DouglasBray/portraits/Aongus.jpg.html > > As you'll note I live in Bray, Co. Wicklow - home of many fine pubs > including the Harbour Bar which was recently ranked the World's Best Pub by > Lonely Planet. However, the pub in which this shot was taken is Duffs on > Main St., Bray. Ah yes, Duffs! Duffs is a truly excellent emporium and > contains a vast amount of cycling memorabilia, images, and ephemera > including bicycles used by Stephen Roche and Sean Kelly. I think I can > honestly say there is nothing decorative in it that isn't cycling related. > The street outside the pub itself was a hot spot sprint finish when the > Tour > de France visited Ireland some years ago. It's a wonderfully peaceful place > to relax in and doesn't have a television to annoy you.
