Photographer honored

There's a lively street art scene in Dundalk which has inspired an
annual festival which sees top Irish and international artists invited
to town to paint murals.
This one is by local artist OMIN and depicts Paul Kavanagh who worked as a press and commercial photographer.
The elephants at the bottom recall one of his best loved images which
depicted a circus making its way through town in the early 'sixties.

Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II
1/50s f/7.1 at 21.0mm iso640 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

This is a really outstanding piece of work. The way he's been able to use light and shade to capture the textures... of the jacket, of the face, of everything, then matching it to the proportions of the building... this OMIN is a real artist in every sense.

That's a super mural. I love street art, Cheltenham has some great gable-end murals but nothing as fab as this!

an excellent salute to a distinguished local, and a photographer at that...he is not known over here, where few have heard of even Tom Kelly..
