LINEAR PARK 2012

I used a Sony NEX-7 and it had difficulty capturing the colours along the Liffey River and there was a tendency towards blue.

The Liffey Linear Park in Newbridge is a 9.5-acre open space along the Liffey River. It's a popular spot for locals and visitors alike, offering a variety of amenities including:  

A 3km walking and cycling path
A children's playground
A picnic area  
A dog park
A wildflower meadow  
A sculpture of a swan

The park is currently owned by the Kildare County Council and is maintained on a day-to-day basis by the Newbridge Tidy Towns Association. The park is open to the public 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  

The Liffey Linear Park is a great place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. It's also a popular spot for birdwatching, fishing, and picnicking.

Here are some additional details about the park:

The park was created in the early 1970s.  
It is part of the Liffey Valley Park, which is a larger park that stretches from Newbridge to Leixlip.
The park is currently being developed, with plans to add more amenities such as a cafe and a visitor centre.
There is a large sculpture of a swan located near the bridge.
