Filed in Canon 40D, Ireland, Kerry, Landscape, Nature, Photography, Photos, Rain, Sigma 10-20This is my desktop background. I love it! After Inch Strand on the way to Dingle in County Kerry the road gets very narrow and winds through the hills before coming down to sea level again. The picture above should be a familiar scene to anyone who has travelled that road! The day we drove [...]

Cork rooftops on and on
Filed in Black and White, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Landscape, Photography, Photos, Sigma 18-200, UrbanThe view from the Grand Parade Car Park is a wonderful one in every direction.

Filed in Black and White, Candid, Canon 10-22, Canon 40D, Cork, Ireland, Landscape, People, Photography, Photos, Street, Urban, VehiclesCranes towering over Cork City sit idle as the sun sets on a late October day in 2008. I suspect this scene will become more rare as the recession bites.

Windswept Daisies
Filed in Beach, Canon 20D, Cork, Flowers, Fountainstown, Ireland, Landscape, Nature, Photography, Photos, Rocks, Sea, Sigma 10-20, WaterDaisies cling to the sparse earth at the water’s edge in Fountainstown, Co Cork. This was taken just a few metres from my previous Fountainstown picture and was mocking me for over 2 years, sitting in my “Work in Progress” folder, defying my attempts to capture the feeling of that cold October day in 2006.

The tide is out at Fountainstown
Filed in Canon 20D, Cork, Fountainstown, Ireland, Landscape, Nature, Photography, Photos, Sigma 10-20, WaterThe tide was out on this evening when we visited Fountainstown in Co Cork in 2006.
