Shadows and Sun

We were walking out towards Hussey’s Folly outside Dingle when I looked across Dingle Harbour and saw the sunlight travel across the opposite headland as clouds moved away.

I love seeing light and shadow on a landscape so I grabbed a few quick shots.

Bokeh Lights in Youghal

The out of focus lights of Youghal light up the sky. The red light of a passing vehicle lights up the corner of the scene.

I was originally going to photograph the light and get a long exposure shot of passing traffic but luckily, my lens was out of focus and reminded me I could shoot a photo like this!

Cork Eir Building at Sunset

I was out with Blarney Photography Club on Thursday night in the city. The sun was setting when I decided we should head to Bell’s Field. I thought we had about 30 minutes, but with the hills opposite, the sun sank out of sight much earlier.

Driving up there, through St. Luke’s, we got there just to see the sun disappear behind a bank of cloud on the horizon. Luckily, the glow of our celestial star continued for some time, and this is one of the photos from that night.

Not a great shot by any means, but it was nice to be out with everyone else, and we had a nice chat and drink afterwards.
