    Dr. Cheryl Lavin, a local clinical psychologist and photographer, took images during a 2007 visit to Ireland, which will be on display at the West Roxbury branch of the Boston Public Library, 1961 Centre Street, West Roxbury, through July 29.  An opening reception will take place Monday, July 11, from 6 – 7:30.  Staying at a cottage in Caherciveen, County Kerry, she rose early each morning to photograph the local countryside.  Photo below of Mol’s Gap is not by Dr. Lavin, but does illustrate the area she has documented.  For more information visit www.cityofboston.gov.
