A little doggy in her coat
I don’t remember what this dog’s name was, but she was so cute I asked her human dad if I could photograph her. No petting was allowed as she is the typical small dog and isn’t fond of strangers rubbing her. Not surprising really. Would you like giants rubbing your head?
Alone in the crowd
Momentarily alone in a crowd at the Dingle Races a few years ago.
A Modern Sky
Walking past the Museum Brandhorst in Munich and I noticed the pleasing lines of the museum and the repeating pattern of the flats next door.
Yes, it is very long
The trailer of a lorry in Piper’s, Crosshaven. Not much activity happening there, but I liked this image.
Making Plans in London
A woman, deep in thought, wondering what she’ll buy at a market in London a few years ago. I only noticed she had her glasses sitting on her head. Ingenious! I hate wearing sunglasses while walking, as I have to replace them with my glasses when I go somewhere dark.
Rowing past the ships
On a quiet October morning in 2016, I travelled into town as I saw there was fog forecast, and I wasn’t disappointed. While I was photographing the boats lined up along Kennedy Quay, a single rower came up the river. He quickly glided past my position along the river, but I grabbed a few photos,…

If you want a drink, there’s plenty of choice in Irish pubs. The taps above include Carslberg, Rockshore, Smithwicks, Guinness, Birramoretti, Coors, Heineken, and Murphys.
Property of Pipers
There’s no parking in front of La Scala in Crosshaven, and the no parking signs belong to Pipers. This time of year, Piper’s is fairly quiet, but hopefully in the summer they’ll be open again and busy.
Water bouncing on the apples
Water bouncing off apples in a sink, a little experiment I did twenty years ago in 2004. I need to do more of that.
A church in shadow
A side door of the Igreja Paroquial da Graça in Lisbon catches the first rays of the sun. A long diagonal shadow stretches across the door.
Clouds of flame
Shortly after I sat down at my desk this morning, I looked out the window to see quite a beautiful sunrise lighting up the sky. The top of the sky was a cool blue, moving to dark cloud lower down, then melting to a lovely orange and yellow colour before the sun rose over the…
