  • Sunrise at Fuerteventura’s Salt Museum

    The mounted fin whale skeleton is clearly visible in a photo of the museo de la sal (salt museum) in Fuerteventura. The museum was closed at this early hour and the area was roped off with stern warnings to buy tickets at the museum, but we still managed to get a few photos.

    The salt flats are no longer used of course so the sunset reflection I was hoping for wasn’t to be but there were two ponds that served the same photographic purpose.

    What was actually more interesting were the nearby homes and buildings. They were whitewashed with coloured surroundings and there will be a few photos of them over the next few days.

  • When Dawn Breaks in the Canaries

    Sunrise at this time of year is rather easy as it’s at a reasonable time. Not too early, and not too late either.

    When the sky turns golden I pick up my camera!

  • Light, Table, Window, Darkness

    Sometimes the best photographs are the ones where you strip everything away and just let light do the talking. Simple.

  • Bachelor’s Quay at Twilight

    Blue hour is that magical window between sunset and full darkness when the sky becomes this gorgeous gradient from deep blue to warm orange. That’s what I saw on a cold December evening looking across the River Lee at Bachelor’s Quay.

  • Millennium Bridge After Dark

    The Millennium Bridge in Cork doesn’t wobble like the Shakey Bridge but it probably sees a lot more foot traffic as it links Pope’s Quay and Kyrl’s Quay and Cornmarket Street.

    The bridge was built in 2004. I have some photos of that which I may dig up and link from here later.

  • The Glow of Commerce

    November in Ireland means darkness by half four in the afternoon, which is properly depressing. I’m glad there’s a grand old stretch now, and the days are slowly getting longer and longer. Pity about the damp weather and cold.

  • The Cliff Sitters at Clogher Strand

    When we arrived at Clogher Strand for a photography session last month I spotted a group of teenagers sitting in the grass. I just realised something. They weren’t looking at their phones!

  • Playing With Fire

    Burning steel wool reflects in the still waters, tracing arcs of fire through the air.

  • Seagull Becomes Lunch Inspector

    This seagull had his eye on that man’s lunch. I wonder if he got any crumbs. They have no fear!

  • Up and Away

    I like photographing multi-storey car parks. Usually there’s a good view from the top floor, and I’ll always find something interesting inside too.

  • Kids and Mazes on Grand Parade

    Cork was wrapped in a thick fog on a mild Christmas Eve in 2005. Children were running around a painted maze on the ground near the National Monument on Grand Parade and having a great time.

    Twenty years ago! So much has changed.

  • Long Exposure at Ireland’s Edge

    The sea retreats in its forever battle with the sand.

    Clogher Strand in late December. The day was cold but we had fun.
