Photographer’s Note
This was half time in the game of Dublin V Offally in the Leinster final at Croke Park. Just beside the goal was some of the comical half time entertainment - a streaker. He ran on, kicked something in to the goals (a hat I think), and then ran back in to the crowd on Hill 16. The workshop shows a cropped version.

hello Paul,
I saw that sport on tv in my room in Dublin,it seems very interesting..a mix of football and Rugby...i regret it's the half time with nobody on the ground..we can see it's very popular with many people in the tier,
bye,

LOL! He picked a sunny day for it, the groundsman doesn't even notice what going on!
Great viewpoint, away up in the 'nosebleed' seats. The hill looks fantastic from this location. I like how we can see the houses behind the stadium, for a such a modern venue there's still the unique feeling of being right in the city rather than miles out off some motorway.

Hi Paul. You commented on my Aussie Rules, and I have now found your RU shot! Quite different 'action' on the field of course. I also had a look at the much enlarged WS - interesting to see the groundsman lazily turning his head. Anyway, a very good capture, obviously done in a bit of a hurry. Big crowd in attendance, nice light, interesting scene. I like the sight of the houses in the background. Well done.
Regards,
Andrew
