Travelling laptop has already crashed once on me this evening and I am nowhere near done with the homework yet tonight. So fingers crossed no further trouble.
What we have here is a Royal Navy patrol boat in Fistral Bay outside Newquay. I missed the drama plus I didn’t have long lenses with me, but he [...]
There were some special celebrations at Dublin Airport yesterday for Aer Lingus’s 75th anniversary – yes, I was there and yes I took some photographs.
So there will be a bunch of aeronauticals turning up in the next few days along with some kites.I feel like talking more too but I am in the process of [...]
I don’t have a huge amount of time free right now – I should be at the beach but for reasons outside my control, I am running about 3 hours late. But I wanted to post this one photograph that I have out of yesterday’s run of photographs.
The Iolar is a De Havilland aircraft, a [...]
Lahinch.
Lahinch has the best lifeguard station I have seen in this country. It’s not, for example, a temporary dwelling, sort of container box thing. It looks like it belongs in California, to be honest and it watches out over one of the most popular beaches in the country. Unlike Tramore, Lahinch is not full of [...]
I think this might be my favourite from Good Friday. It’s not a perfect photograph (I can confirm, for example, that C has ankles for the most part), but there’s just something about it, a bit atmospheric. Photographers like it. Kitesurfers will want to know why he’s not doing a trick. I think this might [...]
I can’t see any evidence that I actually posted this here which surprises me because again, it’s one of the best kite photographs I’ve ever taken. It was taken with the last 40D and it might be the best photograph I ever took with that camera. Possibly it’s no coincidence that 10 minutes later, the [...]
Although I don’t do a huge amount of it, I love to see some of the high gloss car photography which I largely grew up with (well anyone who gets to read Car, FastLane and Top Gear on a frequent basis at the age of 15 can’t really avoid it I suppose). Mostly I am [...]
When I was down around Bantry Bay the other day, it was quite hazy. I actually really like the haziness of this picture – mainly because when I have tried to shoot things like this before, I’ve just failed to get it right. But I like the layers in this.
There seems to be something about [...]
Last night. Those waves are quite small as in I didn’t regret the fact that limited movement means I can’t get into a wetsuit at the moment (kids: never play badminton cos a badminton injury can mess up your surfing activity 10 years later, still) but from this vista, they still look quite impressive.

This went down quite well with the pixie community yesterday.
I’m tempted to take the advice I’m being given and put it on a large canvas. For anyone who is wondering, when the tide comes in on Garrettstown Beach, it reaches the seawall, and breaks against it. I like stuff like that so have a [...]
