Wild Atlantic Waves
Waves crash onto the beach and rocks of Couminole Beach, Co Kerry near full tide. A dangerous beach for swimming at the best of times, it would be foolhardy to go swimming there in conditions like this! Aperture ƒ/8 Camera Canon EOS 20D Focal length 20mm ISO 100 Shutter speed 1/640s

Nature’s Art: Fungi Patterns
I spotted this fascinating looking fungus growing out a dead tree trunk last weekend. I’d no idea what kind of fungi they were until an AI identified them as a Polypore. This is a good sign, for that small forest I found them in, just outside Kenmare: Polypores have been used as indicator species of…

The Edge of the Lake
Another one from that walk in Kenmare a few days ago. I spotted this couple walking by with their dog, and then they stopped a distance away with the dog exploring the shallows. I love silhouettes, so this photo came to be. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7RM5 Focal length 240mm ISO 125 Shutter speed 1/500s

A bench by the Lake
A small bench is nestled among the trees in Kenmare, on the shores of Kenmare Bay. What caught my eye immediately were the three trees surrounding it. They frame the bench in a pleasing way, the bare branches providing a skeletal, natural, surrounding to the man made bench. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7RM5 Focal length 94mm…

A Kenmare Robin
I spotted this little fella down in Kenmare, County Kerry the other day. A Robin, bold as brass, perched right there on a dead branch, posing like he owned the place. He stayed there for a few minutes surveying the area, and let me get a little closer for a photo. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7RM5…

Kerry’s Quiet Corner
The bench here at the end of a spit of land near Kenmare, Co Kerry has a plaque that says: The pillar has a plaque that has some writing I forgot to photograph, but the heading says, “Ode to Lem” which may be this song. A lovely spot to contemplate the world. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera…

A Golden Moment
The wide pavement of McCurtain Street is where I spotted a young woman putting the lead on her patient Golden Retriever. He sat there patiently as she fixed the lead in place and continued on their way down the street. Aperture ƒ/2.8 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 24mm ISO 100 Shutter speed 1/1000s

Paws Up for Treats in Cork
I think there might have been something special in that paper bag and that husky wanted it. 🙂 Aperture ƒ/4 Camera ILCE-7RM5 Focal length 24mm ISO 125 Shutter speed 1/500s

Canine Companion on Castle Street
This cute little terrier saw Diego, my chihuahua, and of course needed to make friends with him. 🙂 Dogs are the best! PS. inb4 complaints. Nobody noticed this was Paul Street! Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 17mm ISO 3200 Shutter speed 1/500s

Dog Walkies in the City
I spotted this little character on the streets of Malaga, pulling its owner along with an enthusiasm that only a dog can muster. There were another 2 dogs nearby, so I think that’s what was distracting him. 🙂 Aperture ƒ/3.5 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 28mm ISO 500 Shutter speed 1/500s
