One of my ghost estates images features on the front of Guardian G2 today. The feature is Ireland's Shattered Dreams. Inside, there is a double page spread of the horses outside an abandoned house in Leitrim. They were beautiful horses, like those ones of our childhood dreams, you know, that whisk you away somewhere better. White Beauty. The one on the left was very curious and kept coming towards me, he was trying to sniff the camera. So, I let him. Then he gently tugged at the strap. The house, somebody's abandoned hopes and dreams. There were building materials gathering dirt, workers overalls on the ground, a fireplace with no hearth in a room with no view, but for hilly mounds of unkempt wild grass.
