  • Landscape photograph of An Fear Marbh (The Dead Man) rock formation viewed from the Dingle Peninsula, County Kerry, Ireland in December 2025. The distinctive island lies in the grey Atlantic waters, its silhouette resembling a human figure lying on their back. In the foreground, green and brown grass slopes down towards dark slate cliffs that drop to the sea. A rustic wooden post and wire fence runs along the hillside. To the left, a dark rocky headland frames the view, while smaller sea rocks break the surface of the calm water. The Blasket Islands are visible in the misty distance under an overcast grey sky. The scene is rendered in muted tones of grey, green and brown.

  • 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 Dead Man Sleeps

Cool Against the Neon

While the Haidilao facade throws everything it has at the pavement, all pandas and beer mugs and flashing Chinese characters competing for attention, this man just leans there in quiet command: blazer, open collar, white trousers, flat cap, phone in hand, utterly unbothered. He doesn't need to compete with the lights because he's already won.

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!

The Heart-Shaped Sunglasses Club

A McDonald's in London was the restaurant of choice for 3 ladies wearing identical heart-shaped sunglasses on this July day earlier this year. They were sitting in the window, above the McDonald's arches. I couldn't resist photographing them. McDonald's restaurants in Europe, including the UK, use dark green exteriors rather than the bright red and...

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?

I would like to say I knew the sign in the background said, "How are you?" but it's more likely I did not. I'm glad it worked out, and it just proves that you have to be ready to take the photograph when you're doing street photography or you'll miss the moment. In 2004, Ireland...

A Life Well Lived
