Malaga by Night
I was perched on the roof of my hotel in Malaga when I took this long exposure shot of Malaga at night. A few cars drove by, captured as streaks of light, and I was delighted that the Cathedral was still lit up.
Ghostly light trails in Amsterdam
Light trails left by passing bikes along a canal side road in Amsterdam. This photo is taken at the same location as the near miss photo I posted a few days ago.
Llafranc at Night
The Spanish coast of the Mediterranean is a sea of artificial light, making astrophotography pretty difficult to do, but it does make for interesting panoramas. The original merged image is over 9,000 pixels wide and full screen, it’s great to zoom in and scroll around.
Damrak by Night
The Damrak in Amsterdam is a street in front of the main railway station of the city, where you can see the beautiful reflection pictured here. If you’re lucky, the water will be as still as it was the night I photographed it. The reflections of the houses there are eye catching!

Night Time Light Streaks at Busy Junction
The hustle and bustle of city life can be captivating, especially at night, when the bright lights of passing vehicles streak into the distance like stars in the sky. This particular photo captures the vibrant energy of a busy junction, with cars and buses whizzing by in a blur of colour and motion. Despite the…
Nollaig Shona ó Chorcaigh
The “Nollaig Shona Duit” signs at both ends of St. Patrick’s Street in Cork are all lit up again this year.
Tivoli Docks at Night
Tivoli Docks on the River Lee as seen from The Marina in Blackrock in January 2020.
The Lights of Llafranc
The lights of Llafranc in Spain shine brightly near 1am in the morning after a wedding ceremony in a nearby hotel. Swimming there was a highlight of the year for me. Lovely calm and warm waters. As it’s the Mediterranean, there was barely any tide, so you could be sure how much beach was there…
Colourful Dingle Night
The night sky over Dingle was lovely and colourful one night in August, 2022.
