The shirt factory project

In 2013 Londonderry was named the UK's city of culture...as part of the city's celebrations, there were many art exhibitions throughout the year. Artist Rita Duffy's exhibition was a project featuring the shirt factory legacy in Londonderry.

It was a very effective exhibition....all those shirts just hanging above the street - very quirky!

Today's photo is part of my "Wind-Back Wednesday" feature and was taken in 2013 during my trip to Ireland. TFL :)

@gilbertwood @amfrumbiddivurd @pusspup @swillinbillyflynn @lisainstpete @365projectlinda @kandkids @wag864 @bob65 @brett101 @moviegal1 Thanks everyone. It was really quite striking to walk around the corner & see all those shirts hanging there...I had to google it at the time to find out what it was about :)

[Jenfurj]

Love the business and colour of it all, plus the story!

[leggzy]

@365projectorgjenfurj thank you :)

[Issi Bannerman]

I was about to comment 'There's a Londonderry in Australia?", then I finished reading your post. What a fabulous capture on that blue sky day, too! Super!

[ajisaac]

Great shot from not very far across the water!

[leggzy]

@jamibann thank you - there actually is a Londonderry in Australia....not as well known as the one in N. Ireland though...lol

[leggzy]

@ajisaac Thank you....and yes, not too far at all. I will be back there in 2 months or so, so I will give you a wave :) lol

[Issi Bannerman]

@leggzy Is there really? Never knew. My hubby comes from NI - Portadown - not so far from Londonderry, or Derry as it is often known locally.

[leggzy]

@jamibann my dad comes from NI too, down near Bangor. We loved our visit to Derry....Londonderry here is just a small town & as far as I know, it isn't shortened to Derry.

[Issi Bannerman]

@leggzy Hence your visit there, I imagine! It's a lovely part of the world.

[Lin Joyce]

What a uniques display! You've captured this very well.Fav.
