  • Close-up portrait photograph of an elderly man shot from below as he looks upward, taken outside a cafe on Daunt Square in Cork, Ireland in 2004. The image captures his weathered face in profile, showing deep wrinkles and aged skin texture in rich detail. He wears rectangular glasses with metal frames that catch reflections of buildings and sky, and a dark flat cap. Wisps of grey hair are visible at the back of his head. He wears a checked shirt. The photograph has a dark vignette around the edges with dramatic lighting emphasising the contours of his face.

The Steel Wool Spirals

Spirals of sparks as steel wool burns in a long exposure of about 20 seconds.

Nollaig Shona Duit

"Nollaig Shona Duit" through the years, from 2022, 2024 and 2025. From one end of St. Patrick Street to the other.

Santa on Bass

A few more photos from the Cork Academy of Music night in Cyprus Avenue recently. They were so good! videos to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6gXSMmU6PQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uz0oUJZ5t30

Future Stars at Cyprus Avenue

The students of Cork Academy of Music took over the stage in Cyprus Avenue last week for a fabulous Christmas concert. For most of them, it was their first time on stage and it was electrifying. The crowd went wild supporting their friends and family and everyone was dancing and having a great time!

December Light at Youghal

I love taking photos on the beach at Youghal, especially at sunset. This is from a few days ago when the sun was really low in the sky, and it was shining directly along the beach, rather than from behind the beach as it is during the summer! Youghal (pronounced "Yawl") has one of the...

Spinning Light on Grand Parade

The Big Wheel or Ferris wheel, is back in the Grand Parade in Cork, but these photos are from December 2017! You'd hardly know, except for the posters on the buildings behind. This was before Ukraine was attacked by Russia and there is now a flag of Ukraine with the text, "We're with you Ukraine"...

Chasing Light Trails on South Mall

You're not waiting for a bus and suddenly four busses come along! We had fun with some long exposure photography on. Thursday night.

How are you?

A Life Well Lived

Portrait of a man outside a coffee shop on Daunt Square, Cork, in 2004.

Racing Through the Dandelions

Horses charge past at the Dawstown Point-to-Point in 2018, County Cork.

The Crowd on Pana

A huge crowd gathered around a man on stilts holding 3 flaming torches on St. Patrick Street, Cork in 2006. See how homogeneous the crowd is? A similar photo today would show a much more diverse set of people in modern Ireland. Edit: Since this caused quite a commotion on Facebook, I just want to...

Communion Day on Patrick Street

This was twenty years ago on St. Patrick Street, Cork. Not in December obviously, but in May when children all over the country were celebrating their first communion.
