I live in Rosslare just outside the town of Wexford in southeast Ireland...
I love Wexford at this time of the year as coinciding with the fun of halloween, we have the world famous Wexford Opera Festival which consists of operas, recitals and opera scenes.
There is a great buzz around as people from all over ireland and abroad flood into the town to enjoy the fun of the Fringe Festival, which boasts a range of activities including
One-Act Plays,
The Guinness Singing & Swinging Pubs
Historical Tours
Classical Recitals
Jazz
Light Opera
Horse racing
Musicals
Poetry Readings
70 Art Exhibitions
And much much more. At this time of the year it is a great event and lifts everyone's spirits as we head into the Winter..These are some shots I have taken of the town...
