The trailer of a lorry in Piper’s, Crosshaven. Not much activity happening there, but I liked this image.
On a quiet October morning in 2016, I travelled into town as I saw there was fog forecast, and I wasn’t disappointed. While I was photographing the boats lined up along Kennedy Quay, a single rower came up the river. He quickly glided past my position along the river, but I grabbed a few photos,…
The Parnell Place Bus Station in Cork is lit up from below by pink lighting. It’s a long exposure shot and a vehicle drove past during the shot. I wanted to get this shot and make sure that the red brick chimney to the far left was visible as it’s the most prominent part of…
