The Poolbeg Chimneys, Dublin

Dublin Ireland

I've just added this new image to my gallery in a few different sizes. Inspired by Black and white darkroom techniques, this image has hues of sepia seeping through the muted textured background. The red and white painted towers are symbolic of old hand painted photographs. 

The Pigeon House, The Poolbeg Generating Station or also colloquially known as The Poolbeg Chimneys or Stacks is a power station owned and operated by the Electricity Supply Board of Ireland (ESB).

The chimneys are located on the Poolbeg peninsula, an artificial peninsula built of reclaimed land to the east of Dublin, on the south bank of Dublin Port.

Its two chimneys, at just over 207 metres, are visible over much of Dublin, making them  one of the most well-known landmarks in Dublin and one of the tallest structures in Ireland.
