Sometimes I am reminded as to what a privilege working as a photographer can be. One of the really great things is that you get to places most people would never get to see. I was working with the Iveagh Trust, celebrating 125 years since they were founded by Lord Iveagh of the Guinness dynasty. In an effort to match an angle from a photograph taken more than 100 years ago, when the Bull Alley complex of social housing was been built, we got access to the roof of St Patrick's Cathedral. The views were as spectacular as the weather. Because of the trees we had to go much higher than the original angle to get see Bull Ally and the remaining landmarks such as the steeple of Christ Church and the near by Synod and St Werburghs to the right of the photographs. Both the old and new photographs make up the centre spread of the Iveagh Trust 2015 Annual Report.
