Hi gang, I hope everyone is having a wonderful today 🍁

Today I wanted to share a collection of images which I took while on a walk in the St. Stephen's Park in the Dublin city center. Its one of my favorite places to go to when I have some spare time. I was waiting on a client for a shoot as he wanted to get some professional business photos taken however I was too early which is why I decided to capture some scenery photos instead.

St. Stephen’s Green Park is a historical park and garden, located in the center of Dublin city. It is the place to go to when wanting a break from the grayness of the city center and enjoy the nature. During the summer the park is most beautiful as there are many colorful flowers, birds and trees however it is just as beautiful during the rest of the year as well. With a small breeze, calm atmosphere and a small crowd, it can be even more enjoyable.

I captured some simple photos of the park however I noticed a man feeding birds which caught my attention. The interesting thing is that this man is always in this park feeding birds and I ended up having a conversation with him. He told me that he used to come every day however now he comes only certain days during the week, he also works with homelessness organizations. Each bird has a name and he remembers them by their feathers and size.

I asked him if its ok to take some photos while he feeds the birds...

He calmly fed them and suddenly called me over, gave me some seeds and that's when it happened...birds started to jump on my arms, shoulders and head. I was freaked out at first as I'm always afraid of catching a disease of some sort however eventually I got over it. I fed them and took some photos and then walked around the shopping center right outside the park. After that I met up with my client and in general had an interesting day!
