We walked down to the sea front - the Dublin Bay to be specific - and caught some early birds going for a quick in and out. As the morning wore on more and more folks showed up, old and young alike, to take the plunge. Some people immersed themselves quickly then jumped out, shouting, head shaking, running into the arms (and towels) of family and friends. Yet there were some very hardy swimmers too! Some of the "all year rounders" actually did a few strokes, one man exclaiming with delight, "invigorating!" Upon emerging from the pool another elderly gent advised a his young companion, "Ah, there's a bit of a nip, there is." Then there were the onlookers, taking pictures, holding towels, wearing Santa hats, and passing around thermoses and flasks. All in all a jolly scene!
So, while this is our wedding photography blog (and I will be posting images from a beautiful Irish wedding soon!), I couldn't resist these images and their happy vibes as a way for Rudo and I to say
Happy Holidays everyone, from Rudo and Kate Photography!
Thank you to everyone for your support, friendship, laughter, creativity, and love - here's to much more in the New Year to come!
