This is the harbour at Castletownbere with an impressive cloud hanging over the water. It may possibly be the same cloud over Allihies Beach but that’s probably just wishful thinking on my part. Both photos were taken close in time to each other so maybe ..

This was a long exposure shot that came out quite nicely but it did show up the dead pixels on my sensor again. Good thing I don’t have time to shoot many of these types of photos nowadays. The [...]

Me and Justin
Filed in Black and White, Boat, Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, Kinsale, People, Photos, Sea, Sigma 18-200, Urban, WaterDown in Kinsale on Monday, I watched a couple get their small boat ready to sail off into the harbour with my friend Justin. He’s a keen sailor but he hasn’t been on the water in ages, and I could see he was itching to get out there. To be honest, the evening was so [...]

Skyhawk
Filed in Boat, Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, Kinsale, lomo, Photos, Sea, Sigma 18-200, VehiclesSkyhawk, a boat moored in Kinsale harbour. Moored there for quite some time by the looks of things. It’s aptly named. It seems the local bird population have taken a liking to it and made it a stopping off point. I didn’t go to the Marathon today. Adam was up until 10.30pm last night bawling [...]

Boats and fishing tackle
Filed in Bantry, Black and White, Boat, Canon 10-22, Canon 20D, Cork, Ireland, UrbanBoats and lobster pots (I presume?) lie on the quay in Bantry. This area is a must see for photographers. There are so many things to see you could spend hours there just snapping away!
This boat, Sheila, has been tied up in Cobh for I don’t know how long. This photo was taken in 2006 but the last time I was in Cobh around this area I remember seeing it. I wonder what’s the story with it?
