2010

Following two weeks of sub zero temperatures, ice & snow flurries in January 2010, the penultimate night of Saturday 9th January brought a heavy downpour of snow, just as evening was turning to morning. EV 77 is seen on the Clontarf Road, in a spectacular & rare snow covered landscape. Within 24 hours, a thaw had set in & that was the end of the snow & such shots.
