This is a photograph from the SSE AIRTRICITY Dublin Marathon which was held in Dublin, Ireland on Bank Holiday Monday 26th October 2015 at 09:00.The Dublin Marathon has been held annually since 1980. The marathon course starts at Fitzwilliam Square in the city center and finishes at Merrion Square. For the past number of years there have been some changes to the configuration of the route at the start and finish due to traffic and transportation infrastructure work around the city center. However the majority of the race proceeds in an anti-clockwise direction around the city passing through the Phoenix Park, Chapelizod, Inchicore, South Circular Road, Walkinstown, Terenure, Clonskeagh, UCD, Stillorgan Dual Carriage Way, Ballsbridge and finishing up Northumberland Road and Mount Street. As always the organisation is first class and this seen just under 13,000 people complete the marathon course.
The weather conditions were not very good for marathon running with runners facing race and windy conditions around much of the course.
Overall the poor weather conditions did not make for very good photographic conditions particularly around the start and finish area where it was a little darker around the tall buildings and streets.
The full set of photographs from the start and the finish are available at our Flickr set for Dublin Marathon 2015 https://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157658064057124

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs

This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.

CP SD40-2F 9012 leads a grain train through the fog at Moosomin Sk. I skipped school till the was train to photograph in the fog so it was worth it.
This 'hole' in the wall of the front lounge peeps through to the family & dining areas, leading to the doorway of the gamesroom, through to the outdoors via the windows.

A GWR HST accelerates through the ornate Bath Sydney Gardens on 1st July 2016.
A well known photographic location over the years, the track had already been lowered in this area in preparation for the forthcoming electrification in 2017. However due to the changeable nature of available funding, plugs have been pulled and Sydney Gardens will remain untainted by OLE clutter.
The service is 1A20 1400 Bristol Temple Meads to London Paddington.
Taken while moving and through glass, this is a shot of the facade of the St. Francis Xavier Church in Phoenix, Arizona. This is one of the sights to see while riding the new Light Rail in the Valley. I've posted another image of this architectural detail on flickr, about three years ago, here. Pigeons apparently find this architectural facade a welcoming place.
It is very interesting to take a shot and then look up on the Internet what can be learned about a place. In this case, I found that the Jesuit part of the Roman Catholic Church has an interesting history not only in the Southwest of the US, but also around the world. The next image will show a better view of this architectural detail. Here are some links I read with great interest. And of course, there are some real corkers in what I learned...
This is a website called "Ship of Fools" that has "Mystery Shopper" reports of those who attend services at a church, in this case, this particular church:
www.ship-of-fools.com/mystery/2008/1555.html
This is a wikipedia article on St. Francis Xavier - what a busy guy and what a history into the past, even to Asia, Indonesia, India, China, Japan, Italy, Portugal and also the Inquisition:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Xavier
I've got to tell you, in this day and age, I cannot imagine being a member of a church dedicated to this particular religious person considering the history. I surely hope the long tradition of Jesuit theology and missionary work is tempered by far better examples of faith at work in a positive way.

Apologies to anyone who favorited this or four others I had to restrict/"close-to-views" and upload again today (I hate to lose the commentary on each, as well, though I have decided to save them in restricted form for future reference). I was getting a view for each of these five once about every ten minutes, though, and it must have been a bot or some such ("unknown source" is how it's listed in the stats...). I know something's wrong when even a mundane image is viewed more than one that is Explored... What a pain...
One more of the southbound ethanol train from Friday before last (5-4-2012), the end of which is still passing the grain elevator complex north of here at Sadlersville, Tennessee as they round the curve before crossing Bagby Road in Robertson County. I tried some slightly different processing here but probably should have toned the sky down a wee bit more in hindsight... This will likely be the last of these from this location and shoot (did I hear a sigh or two of relief? {chuckle}) ;-)

I was at Dyer waiting for a late running Q642 to get through town when I heard him call a "clear" at the Dyer diamonds, the crossing of the CN ex EJ&E mains. I started to get set up when a CN work train came rolling through at track speed, running right in front of the northbound CSX freight. Q642 went in the big hole and managed to stop in time as the yellow CN train kept rolling east. So, Q642's conductor had to walk the train to make sure the hazmat cars were all OK. Unfortunately, the train had Route 30 blocked for over half an hour at 600pm, not good. Back on the move, SD70MAC 4827 finally comes into the interlocking.
