I really liked this photo! Child is always child, in all times!
Probably looking at something dead floating by.
Ah, them were the days when the Liffey stank in summer with an all-pervasive aroma of rotten eggs.
Great pic. Love it..

Well, l remember Pearse, Connolly Griffith & the well know individuals involved in the 1916 Rising being mentioned in History and why Dev was not in front of a firing squad etc., but Collins was not at the Centre of things at all in what we were thought!
The only Time I remember Collins being mentioned was he was shot by ‘unknowns’ and there was a Road named after him 0n the Northside of Dublin..I kid you not!
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/anthony1928] Happy Easter to you too 🙂
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/tj666] Charming is a good word for it, thank you.
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/photoken04] [http://www.flickr.com/photos/swordscookie] I sometimes wonder if who taught you and where in the country, influenced what and who you were taught about in history – in the days before there was such a set history curriculum.
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/swordscookie] Is it Ormond Printing Works you mean? And any idea on when in 1964 the two-way system changed to one-way. Between that and the shorts and sandals we should be able to date this much more accurately than "1964"…
HaHa. Very charming shot.
Nice image and capture. Have a happy Easter.

Ah right. I was just wondering about the ‘sensitivites’ of the time had a part to play in the ‘Pagentry’ but I would have thought Dev might have been ‘Pro active’ with a ‘Demonstration of History, but then maybe not because of his own Historical backround with the Legacy & arguments over the Collins assassination/situation.
I must admit, we were thought about Dev in school in the 60’s & 70’s but I don’t recall Collins being ever mentioned oddly enough!
Tks for the info!
Can anyone else here help Ken [http://www.flickr.com/photos/photoken04] with this query: "I was curious to know if there was a Parade pre 1966 in Dublin or any of the Cities at Easter?" because I don’t know about pre-1966.
buen trabajo
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/photoken04/] I couldn’t swear to it Ken but I don’t think that there was a parade other than the Old IRA one with all the veterans. No military is what I mean.
A snapshot in time and a lesson in the effects of change. These lads are probably from nearby Greek St. Flats, Chancery House Flats or Ormond Square where Johnny Giles comes from. They are wearing sandals without socks and in what appears to be a warms day one chap has a jacket on. An interesting feature is the fact that the traffic on the quays appear to still be two-way, later that year the one-way system was brought in and the north quays ran in the direction of O’Connell St. Not much has changed on the skyline on the far side of the Liffey. Sunshine Chambers is on the right of Parliament St. And the Clarence Hotel and a famous printing works I cannot remember the name of are just past Grattan Bridge.
so amazing
Making mischief no doubt. Wonderful period shot. Have a great Easter weekend.
I was curious to know if there was a Parade pre 1966 in Dublin or any of the Cities at Easter?
Tks Carol.
Happy Easter to you too, Ken! Very welcome on the shots, and what are you looking for on the 1916 material?
Nice one Carol. Is their anything for the 1916 Commemoration in ’64?
Happy Easter and tks for putting up the interesting shots!
