«All trials are trials for one’s life and all sentences are sentences of death.»
Oscar Wilde (written in prison)

This fifth photo of my «GAELIC DAYS» serial in homage to the Irish and Gaelic culture was taken in Dublin at night, and it is dedicated to Oscar Wilde, born in 16 of October of 1854 in Dublin, Ireland.

Oscar Wilde was educated in the Trinity College, Dublin, and later in Oxford.
In 1879 he goes to London and established itself as leader of a "esthetical movement ".
In 1881 a collection of its poems is published.
In 1882 without money accepted a trip of one year, between USA and Canada. This trip relieved it fame and richness.
In 1884 is married with Constance Lloyd; Oscar and Constance had 2 children.
With the publication of "Picture of Dorian Gray" , its literary career shoots up.
One night, Robert Ross, a young Canadian guest, seduced Oscar and forced it to collate with its homosexual feelings that pursued him since the time he was student.
Years later Oscar was imprisoned with accusations of homosexual behaviour and sentenced in 2 years of arrest with forced works.
The calamitous conditions of the arrest had caused a serial of illnesses that took him to the doors of the death.
It was declared its bankruptcy.
Oscar Wilde died as a man ruined in 30 of November of 1900.
Nothing better that a shining night in Dublin to remember him.

Hi Jose,
Congratulations with this very atmospheric photo. Great night shot it is. I like the composition and I also like the contrast / patterns in the water; smooth and troubled.
The cranes are a bit pity, but the repeating of them (there are 4 cranes at least) is nice.
Didn't know that Dublin looks like this. TFS.
greetings,
Joop!

This i'll find a little piece of art..

Hello Jose,

The silky-crisp texture adds to the atmosphere!
Outstanding colours and 1 sec exposure works well, and I notice the interesting contrast between the classical architecture and the cranes..!

The cranes spoil the shot, but nothing to be done about that, José... they're about everywhere! I'm pretty fond of night photography, and this one is very nice. The light is well controlled, and what I like best are the reflections: calm and well-defined in the parts behind the bridge, all blurry in front of the bridge. Beautiful!

Bonjour José,

Joli cliché nocturne bien éclairé par les lumières de la ville, jolis reflets miroitants du pont, les grues me gênent un peu, mais elle n'altèrent pas le paysage vu de nuit!!!
Amicalement
Odile :)

I love this contrast between this romantic vision of the river and the city light and on the other hand these horrible cranes urban blight that disfigure the landscape.

I just regret that the image is a little fuzzy, you could, maybe, use a filter for sharpness.

However, the colors are very beautiful with reflections on the water.

Ncie job,
Thx

Hello Jose,
a beautiful reflection of colourful ight. The quiet town with lots of serenity and melancholic atmosphere. Well controlled light and shadow management. The clouds too is very interesting.
Well composed with plenty of thought.Thanks for furnishing with the interesting notes. I wastch the play "The Impotance of Being Earnest" by Oscar Wilde somtimes ago. Very exciting and interesting.
