Just a few months shy of ten years ago, we’d visited Sherkin Island and as we were leaving I spotted a man on a RIB talking to two others on their dingy. It was a lovely warm August day, just before school was about to start again. In the background is the famous Baltimore Beacon,…

More than a decade ago, I spent some time in Santa Cruz along with the rest of Automattic for the Grand Meetup that year. I’ve already posted a few sunrise photos on the beach, but these photos of surfers riding the waves have been in my TODO folder for a long time.

Two people walking along the road by the south harbour on a pleasant, warm day in 2013. I haven’t been back there in a long time, but hopefully, I’ll make a return this summer.

It was early in the morning on a lovely day in Madrid, Spain. I went out for an early walk to capture the comings and goings of the local population and chanced upon this woman coming out of the metro. She probably made this journey hundreds of times. Hopefully, she’s still in Madrid.

Spinning flaming steel wool around creates fiery trails in the air. Thanks Henry, for this photo I took in 2015!

The Baltimore Beacon on one side and Sherkin Island on the other, while we travelled to that island on a day trip, the same day as this photo of the Wallis Buoy.

Ah, the majestic Wallis buoy. It’s a beacon of maritime sophistication and seagull real estate. On my way to Sherkin Island, I came upon this floating masterpiece, complete with a solar panel that probably powers the seagull’s Netflix subscription. The bird, perched confidently atop its throne, seemed to be enforcing the 6 km speed limit…

Tucked away on the serene Sherkin Island in County Cork, I stumbled upon a timeless moment that felt plucked from another era. Two older men, clearly no strangers to the soil beneath them, were deep in conversation. This photo was taken in 2015 while on a visit to the island. I hope they are still…

Two people kayaking at the mouth of Dingle Harbour in Co. Kerry while I was on a boat looking for Fungi, the Dingle Dolphin, back in 2017. We saw Fungi that day. He broke the water a few times.

The harbour in Ahakista is a picturesque location on a warm June evening. This photo was made in 2014 when I was on holiday there with my family.

Micky O’s Craic House was still standing when I took this photo in January, 2016. The location is now, of course, the Rezz Cork Hotel.

St. Fin Barre’s Cathedral and one of the cars of the big wheel on Grand Parade at sunset several years ago. Must have been a really nice view from the top of the big wheel!
