  • Steel Wool Spinning at Night

    Spinning flaming steel wool around creates fiery trails in the air. Thanks Henry, for this photo I took in 2015! Aperture ƒ/4 Camera Canon EOS 6D Focal length 40mm ISO 50 Shutter speed 13s

  • The Calm Before The Day

    The sun rose this morning a few minutes after 7am, but this is what the sky looked like about 8 minutes before. There was a glorious orange glow and the clouds were lit up from underneath by the sun coming around the globe and shining through the atmosphere. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7RM5 Focal length 26mm…

  • The Blues Brothers in Action

    The Cannonball Run brought a burst of excitement to the streets of Blarney back in 2018 despite the rain that day. It appears I only posted one photo from that day before. I must dig out more! Aperture ƒ/7.1 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 105mm ISO 8000 Shutter speed 1/500s

  • Narrow Alleys and Vibrant Life in Malaga

    I love the narrow streets and alleys of Malaga. They’re great for street photography! Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 28mm ISO 1250 Shutter speed 1/500s

  • A Coastal Haven in West Cork

    The Baltimore Beacon on one side and Sherkin Island on the other, while we travelled to that island on a day trip, the same day as this photo of the Wallis Buoy. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera Canon EOS 6D Focal length 24mm ISO 100 Shutter speed 1/640s

  • Seagull’s Perch on Wallis Buoy

    Ah, the majestic Wallis buoy. It’s a beacon of maritime sophistication and seagull real estate. On my way to Sherkin Island, I came upon this floating masterpiece, complete with a solar panel that probably powers the seagull’s Netflix subscription. The bird, perched confidently atop its throne, seemed to be enforcing the 6 km speed limit…

  • Family Moments by the Atlantic

    I was watching the sun set in Tenerife when a family approached and walked by. They were silhouetted by the sun, but instead of the usual black shadows, I wanted to try something different. No doubt the purists will be scoffing at the bright vignettes. Well, thanks. 🙂 Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7RM5 Focal length 122mm…

  • Rural Banter in Cork

    Tucked away on the serene Sherkin Island in County Cork, I stumbled upon a timeless moment that felt plucked from another era. Two older men, clearly no strangers to the soil beneath them, were deep in conversation. This photo was taken in 2015 while on a visit to the island. I hope they are still…

  • Next Stop: Shopping in Cork

    Three women wait at the traffic lights on Grand Parade. They’ve all been shopping in NEXT. It’s odd what Lightroom sometimes does to a photo when you correct for lens distortion. 🙂 Aperture ƒ/4 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 16mm ISO 160 Shutter speed 1/500s

  • Plaid Hat Diplomacy in Valencia

    A hand raised in greeting, with a smiling face, or is it a hand raised in anger? Luckily, it was the former, with the smiling face of a friendly man just out of the shot greeting his friend in the plaid hat. Aperture ƒ/1.7 Camera Galaxy S23 Ultra Focal length 6.3mm ISO 100 Shutter speed…

  • I’m here for the Beamish

    A man with his pint of Beamish seated at The Roundy a few years ago. Aperture ƒ/4 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 24mm ISO 800 Shutter speed 1/500s

  • The Bustling Streets of Valencia

    If you don’t like crowds, you should avoid Valencia during the Fallas festival. I rarely saw any trouble. The crowds were almost always in good mood or, at the very least, resigned to not moving very fast. It appears that moving fast can be accomplished if you hire someone in a high-vis vest who will…
