11 May 2009 - Under the Shaky Bridge
The Shaky Bridge over the River Lee in Cork is just outside Fitzgerald’s Park.
2 March 2009 - Lonely Boat in Fountainstown
A boat sits alone on the hard ground while it’s brethren bob up and down in the tide around Fountainstown in Co Cork.
This presented me with a bit of a dilemma. I originally cropped the sky out because it was washed out but after careful work with the RAW image I restored detail to that area of the photo. Now I’m torn between this and the cropped version but I think this one wins out. The clouds have a sense of motion that contrasts with the rest of the image in a way I find very pleasing.
I’m thinking about this too much.
8 February 2009 - The little rowing boat
A small rowing boat lies beached on the rocks under holiday homes in Puerto Del Carmen, Lanzarote in the Canary Islands.
25 January 2009 - Carriganass Castle
Carriganass Castle in Co Cork lies a few miles from Bantry. It was a dull wet day when I visited so I didn’t stay too long!
21 January 2009 - Cold Morning Sunrise
The sun had risen about an hour before this shot, taken 2 days ago in Blarney. Actually, across the road from my home. It was a beautiful morning with snow in many places, but the ground was slippy so I had to be careful. Nothing like as bad as this morning when rain and cold made the ground outside like an ice rink!
28 November 2008 - On the Lookout
A lighthouse stands guard near Baltimore in Co Cork.
27 November 2008 - Irish Highway
Some of the highways in Ireland aren’t quite up to international standards.
3 November 2008 - A Cabin in the Rockies
A small wooden cabin or hut sits in a car park near the houses Automattic stayed in at Breckenridge in Colorado. The original shot can be seen in my Flickr stream or in the Automattic group there. This version has been extensively dodged and burned to bring out the contrast between light and dark.
Late posting of today’s photo because of the camera club tonight. It was model shoot night and I got a few shots but I’m not very comfortable directing so I’m undecided as to how well the photos came out.
7 October 2008 - An club agus an cnoc
The club and the hill. This is the North Harbour in Cape Clear Island. The club is familiar to all who visit this part of the world, as are the hills unfortunately. This particular hill overlooks the whole harbour and feels like a 45 degree struggle at times.
I still have memories of climbing it as a youngster on a hot and humid May day while a student at Colaiste Ciaran. I don’t think I’ll ever forget that!
26 September 2008 - Tractor at Allihies
A tractor in the carpark at Allihies Beach in Co Cork.
