Low clouds lay over Dingle town on Friday evening but while it wasn’t the most exciting light, it had a lovely even light without deep shadows. It was a quiet evening with only a few people out walking their dogs and even a couple of tourists!

The sun had risen about 40 minutes before and we were about to leave Cappagh Beach on the Dingle Peninsula when I saw a tree silhouetted against the sun.

Sunday’s storm on the Dingle Peninsula was the kind that turns sensible people around at the car park, but photographers are rarely sensible. I was down at Clogher Strand when the rain properly opened up. My friend and I both grabbed umbrellas trying to keep the gear dry while still getting the shot. The blue…

Look up and notice that 160 years of history are stacked vertically in the same sightline in London. At the bottom of the frame is the ornate ironwork crest of the London, Chatham and Dover Railway, dated 1864, sitting on its stone parapet like it’s been there forever (because it basically has). And rising directly…

This is what I love about shooting London with a telephoto lens. You compress the layers of the city together and suddenly the relationship between people and architecture becomes absurd.

Just after we walked across Millenium Bridge in London I came across these two people watching something behind me. I think it may have been two women who had a couple of dogs with them. An interesting pair. I couldn’t resist making a candid photo of the moment.

The Dunnes Stores on St. Patrick’s Street, Cork was only a muddy construction site in March 2008. Only the distinctive yellow front of the building remained at this time.

Every tourist in London has a photo of Big Ben, so here’s another one. 🙂

The news broke at the end of last month that St Augustine’s Church in Cork would be closing later this year. Despite walking past there hundreds of times while out walking I’ve only been in there a couple of times. I happened to call in about a week before that announcement and took the photos…

I love when I spot something like this happening on the street. It happened near the London Eye where there’s a novelty photo booth shaped like a bus. Two kids were at the back, with one pointing at the wheels, and then they go and spin the wheels!

Every photographer who visits London takes a shot of Piccadilly Circus. It’s practically a rite of passage. The neon screens, the crowds, and the Eros statue somewhere off to the side are iconic. So is the famous UNDERGROUND branding seen all over the city so I wanted to get a mix of the two in…

The audience at Covent Garden really appreciated this knife juggler. He’d just been throwing knifes in the air above the body of a willing volunteer. I’m not sure if I’d have volunteered!
