With the keenest eye for capturing picture-perfect moments, Susan Finnerty’s celebration of our much-missed agricultural shows relays the jubilant atmosphere and hard-earned triumphs at this year’s Bannow-Rathangan Show. Blessed by the sun gods, the beautiful Killag site in Co Wexford welcomed upwards of 25,000 people to a glorius show, following a two-year hiatus due to COVID-19.
