Sunrise by the Brickeen Bridge

Reeds in the foreground, then water and far away hills are coloured yellow by the rising sun behind clouds in the sky.

On a trip with Blarney Photography Club to the Lakes of Killarney a year ago, we photographed the water as the sun rose over the mountains in the distance.

The public toilets at Warren Beach, Co Cork, might seem like an unusual photo, but they were the only source of light nearby. Apart from a few minutes later when I ran up and down the beach with the flashlight on my phone for some fun long exposure shots.

Reflections in the pond

Houses, trees, sky and street furniture are reflected in a pond in Lisbon.

Near the Igreja Paroquial da Graça in Lisbon, I found a small pond that had a lovely reflection.

A fork in the forest

A path forks left and right around the ruins of a building in a forest.

The path forks around one of the ruins of the gunpowder mill in Ballincollig Regional Park, Cork. Everything is overgrown, but access is easy. Inside that building, it looks like this.

Young man walking

A woman holding her dog on the lead. He's sitting on the ground of a pedestrian bridge. The river visible in the background. A man walks past, looking directly at me.

Others are enjoying the setting sun, while this man walking past looked directly at me just as I clicked the shutter.

At the Jeweller

A woman and her two kids, with a man nearby, presumably her partner, look in the window of a jeweller's as someone inside picks out something.

She’s picking out something she likes.

A tourist stares

A woman stares at the tram I'm travelling on, unaware that I'm taking her photo. She is dressed warmly as it is November, and even in Lisbon it gets chilly.

The tram trundles past and people stare at it, unaware I have captured the moment. Lisbon, November 2023.

Starry Night Sky

Stars pop and light pollution shows in the sky while the foreground trees and bushes are silhouetted. Poles carrying wires too.

After photographing the National Space Centre on a dark January evening I turned around and spotted this silhouette. Luckily, there wasn’t much of a wind blowing, but we were lucky. A chill wind blew in a few minutes later.

Long shadows at sunset

A street at sunset from above. A person walks in the light of the setting sun, casting a long shadow behind them. Another figure walks up the road, while a group of people are on a path to the right. Lots of parked cars and the brake lights of a car on the right are visible as it is on a hill.

Lovely golden light casts long shadows on a street in Lisbon.

Flowers of the Eiffel Tower

The EIffel Tower in the distance while at ground level are lovely flowers and plants.

When you visit the Eiffel Tower, you’ll see the massive Jardin de la Tour Eiffel stretch off into the distance. In warm weather, the gardens are thronged with people in the evenings who gather to watch the Eiffel Tower light up.

This photo was shot on one such evening. The night was calm, and warm and it was lovely to be out.

Lost in Paris

Someone sits on a rock bench, lost in a book, while in the background a woman in white seems lost in the courtyard of the Panthéon, Paris.

A long figure seems lost in the courtyard of the Panthéon in Paris, while another sits on a rock bench lost in a book. An actual, honest to goodness, paper book.
