PHOTOS: These views of Dublin from above are incredible

“Seen from the edge of an open aircraft door, the city below looks breathtaking.”

A NEW BOOK will give people a view of Dublin they rarely get to see.

Dublin: The View from Above is the latest book by Dennis Horgan, who has previously photographed Cork from the sky.

It features bird’s eye views of the Docklands, the National Botanic Gardens, Dublin Zoo and several other well-known locations.

“Seen from the edge of an open aircraft door, the city below looks breathtaking.

“Flying in both helicopter and fixed-wing aircraft, usually with a door removed to get clearer shots and unobstructed camera angles, I managed to capture all the iconic Dublin landmarks, from Christchurch to Dublin Castle, in a new light – many from striking angles,” Horgan said.
