It's mid-week after a long weekend and its time to stop, relax and smell the roses. Did you know the roses in the Walled Garden were planted over forty years ago! They may be mature but they are very beautiful and bursting with colour and fragrance.🌹

*Dawn to Dusk time-lapse footage* shot a few week

*Dawn to Dusk time-lapse footage* shot a few weeks ago in partnership with Tourism Ireland @tourismireland. During these challenging times, we had an idea to try to capture something beautiful - so we set out to film the Gardens from Dawn to Dusk sound tracked to the beautiful dawn chorus of the birds in the Garden.⁠
We also wanted to capture the golden hour, blue hour, and twilight hours in the Gardens. We hope you can sit back and enjoy this video and let us know in the comments below if you can spot the different light periods in the video?⁠
⁠
*The golden hour has a signature warm glow and occurs just after sunrise and before sunset when the sun is at its lowest on the horizon. The blue hour creates magical blue cooler hues in the sky and arrives shortly before sunrise and after sunset when the sun's position is just below the horizon.*⁠
⁠
The video was shot by Greg Manahan D4 Films and is dedicated to our wonderful colleague Brian Berry who sadly passed on the morning the footage was shot in the Garden.⁠
