Snapshots from a centenary.

Enough time has passed to ponder on the 1916 centenary, though some would say we had enough of it all to last a lifetime.

Luke Fallon, photographer and regular contributor to CHTM, took literally hundreds of pictures over the course of the year, capturing life in Dublin during the centenary. Some are humorous (Connolly doesn’t look quite at home in the windows of BT), some captured excellent civic and community commemorations (I loved the proclamation on Wood Quay and some of the other DCC banners across Dublin) and others captured moments of protest and controversy. Here is a small selection of a much,much larger collection which will be available to view soon.
