Once again, the Garda Traffic account on Twitter is putting photographers to shame.

In fairness though, they've got a helicopter and a decent vantage point. It's pretty easy to make anywhere look amazing when you're from that height.

In any case, @GardaTraffic tweeted out two images from this morning's Ironman triathlon in Dun Laoghaire.

 

The endurance race, which began in Dun Laoghaire this morning, will have contestants run, bike and swim 70.3 miles that will see them pass over the county border, all the way to Kilcock before returning to Phoenix Park later today.
