Lovely shot Marie. Great looking building and setting. Too bad all of the cars are in the lot. I think it would be perfect with an empty parking lot.

Very nice ... reminds me of the New England, USA, textile mills such as Bates, see http://ci.lewiston.me.us/development/batesmill.htm to see the resemblence.

Nice one, Marie! It reminds me of the administration building of the college I went to in 1958!

Nice symmetry!

Nice old building, love the reflection on the water.

Marie, great detail! How did you achieve that? Our local college is in a bit more of rural setting.

You Irish like to put your colleges near rivers. I believe the U at Galway lays right on the river as well.

Nice photo!

Thanks Dwight

the Bates building is a little 'stiffer' or stern looking but very nice
and I can see what you mean

the college shown in the photo here was built around the 1800's
not sure of the exact date but it started small (er)

in 1756 when local people fenced off about three acres of commons land on the banks of the river and built a little house made of grass sods and thatch for the local priest

thanks Pat
your picture of the college is very nice
looks quite quiet there
nice green patch around it

the details in my picture maybe came out alright because of a grey dullish sky
the reflection was lovely in the river

some swans floated underneath where I was standing on a bridge ( which led into playing fields)
and I got nice shots of them from on high

I saw a heron down further and went to where it was perched
it was looking all around very proudly as though it owned the river

I tried to 'shoot' it but it sensed me there and took off
