On the Edge, Giant's Causeway, Northern Ireland

One more from the archives.  I always think of the person in this picture as the quintessential traveller – backpack, cap, standing on the edge after going as far as he can go.  There are worst things to be!

Murals, Derry

Mural, Derry

Like Belfast, Derry is famous for its murals depicting the events of the Troubles. This is one of a series of murals known as the People’s Gallery, painted by the Bogside Artists. Unlike many of the murals in Belfast, the artists have stated that these murals are intended to be non-sectarian – “a human document… not a political propaganda exercise…. They tell a story, pure and simple.”

The Giant’s Causeway is impressive from a distance, but it isn’t until you get up close that you can see all the intricate details, and how perfectly the hexagonal basalt columns fit together.
