The notable feature here is the large Ionic portico 80 feet wide with its 6 fluted columns. Nearby is the Nelson Pillar, 124 feet in height. From the top of the pillar a wonderful panoramic view can be made of Dublin and its environs. Near noon would be the best time for this type of shooting. An ultra-violet filter will prove very helpful in reducing some of the haze very frequently present. Descending Nelson's Pillar walk South on O'Connell Street or take the number 6, 7a, or 8, bus to the intersection on the South side of O'Connell Bridge over the Liffey. Here the street divides and the center building houses several professional photographers, quite accustomed to opening their windows for vacationers to get a photo looking North of O'Connell Street. Continue East along the South bank of the Liffey a few blocks and you will find yourself across the river from the Customs House. The Customs House — a long building 375 feet in length is best pictured from this bank of the Liffey. Your pictures may be made from the steps that descend into the water under the bridge over Tara Street. The bridge and its trusses form a nice frame when looking Northeast. Then, you may walk along the bank further and find some nice framing in the colorful Guinness' boats that constantly traverse the river. Return to the South side of O'Connell Bridge and catch the number 72 bus going West. A few blocks to Church Street leaves you opposite the Four Courts I the Irish Courts of Law), again a long facade 450 feet in length and best photographed from this bank of the Liffey. You may be fortunate enough to include one of the graceful swans of the river floating through your picture to frame an otherwise static scene. Across the Church Street Bridge and North on Church Street is St. Michan's Church. Built in the 17th Century, this church sits on the site of an old Danish church founded about 1096. Some interesting aspects of the church are: its square battlemented tower 120 feet high, possibly dating from the Danish period; the organ, built in 1724 believed to have ben played by Handel: the stool of public repentance, and the vaults. The vaults are perhaps the strongest point of eeneral interest in Dublin. Herein lie mummified bodies as much as 300 years old. that may be seen and, if so desired, touched. This strange phenomenon is attributed to a peculiar quality of the atmosphere — the air is perfectly dry inside these vaults. While St. Michan's offers little in the way of photography, your visit to the crypts should not be missed. Leaving St. Michan's, walk to Arran Quay by the river and catch the number 24 bus to Phoenix Park. The 1076 acres of Phoenix Park will more than fill your second day. The Zoological Gardens lie to the right of the main road through the park. Founded in 1830. this is the third oldest zoo in the world and is famous for the breeding of lions. Breeding began in 1854 and now more than 500 cubs have been born in these gardens. The main lion arena is bareless and so interesting movies of these king cats can be made, using your regular or telephoto lenses. For the children there are pony and elephant rides. The zoo is always one good way to get all the family and friends into your movies. To the left of the main road through the park you may proceed toward Furry Glen. Here along the way, groups of tame deer will be found, and from the road above the glen a beautiful view of the Dublin Mountains and the upper Liffey can be photographed. When weary feet will trod no more, leave by the gateway leading to the North Circular road and take the number 9 or 10 bus toward the city. If vou are fortunate enough to be in Dublin the first part of August, you may turn your movie lens on the world famous Dublin Horse Show. This is one of the greatest events on the Dublin sporting calendar and attracts people from all over the world. Should two days be your limit, then you have seen just about all you can of the city, but if you have a week, for example, then there is much more that could be added. In Dublin itself there are: the Botanical Gardens: the National Library, Art Gallery. Museum, and Leinster House, the meeting place of the legislature: St. Stephen's Green, the largest and prettiest park within the city. Also there are: Marsh's Library, the oldest public library in Ireland founded in 1707; the Municipal Gallery of Modern Art; the Mansion House, that figured in the Insurrection of 1919; and many other parks and historical buildings. Admission to most of the points of interest are free. There is the usual gratuity to a guide where that service is available, but St. Michan's crypt, the crypt at Christ Church, Nelson's Pillar, and the Zoo have a small fee. the greatest being at the zoo. (Two shillings. 28c). If time permits, trips to the South of Ireland will be repaid in beautiful scenic movies. It is here that Ireland truly proves that it is the Emerald Isle.
