# Bandon Weir, Co.Cork

Posted on 03rd October, 2017

Bandon weir before all the flood prevention work was done. There is a heron in the background. I haven’t seen it since the course of the river was changed.

The adjacent area features greenery and a few older stone houses, suggesting a mix of urban and natural environments.](data:image/png;base64,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)

While waiting on my kids to finish Scouts I set up the tripod on this weir located in Bandon, County Cork. It was my first real long exposure of water but the effect I got has a lovely creamy texture to it. Just a pity about the background.
