Another occasional lighthouse, again, from Cork.
They built a golf course on the Old Head of Kinsale so access is a bit more limited than it was in days of old.
This was taken some time in March during my last traipse around West Cork. I actually got a few photographs I really liked while I was [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
West Cork is full of mountains and stuff which has a bit of an impact on whether you have sun or not (around the next corner, any number of things can change).
This is somewhere on the road between Kinsale and Timoleague. It’s a gorgeous drive, particularly if you ship off by Garretstown on the way.

Okay, [...]
I have a few other photographs to come so there will be another blog entry again later on. It is summer in Cork at present; however we managed it given that it is also March. This is Inchydoney, a popular beach with walkers in the morning.
I’m back. There are waves out there and I really have to figure out a better place to try and shoot the sunset from. As the rally was on today, I didn’t do too much exploring. In the way of surf photography, not too much. There were six optimistic souls in the water for an [...]
My phone has just reminded me that at 10.30 in the evening, I stop whatever I am doing, particularly if it involves a computer, and go and relax, or whatever. So this will be short.
This photograph is from June 2006, I think, on a 350D not long after I met the jump to digital. The [...]

It feels like it’s warmer outside than in.
I took a wander around the estate with a 50mm lens and a camera this morning. When I got home I discovered that the computer had different ideas to me about how I name files which is why this is actually called Snow nn rather than IMG_nnnn. [...]
This is some more of the Atlantic coastal route in Mayo. One of the things that gets rammed home to me each time I am Atlanticside is how much I miss the Atlantic and really the Irish Sea; it’s a piffling little sea by comparison. It doesn’t smell right, it doesn’t feel right and it [...]
Advance apologies – this is superwide. But I think it deserves it, big time. You see, this is what I couldn’t do in Mayo. Pretend to be Ansel Adams.
Welcome to Kerry. While I was on my so-called holidays a couple of weeks ago, I wound up with a plan to go to Dingle. For reasons [...]
