Mullinhassig Waterfall in the Winter
We went for a walk to the waterfall at Mullinhassig yesterday. Not many people there but the ground was littered in Autumn leaves and the thunder of the waterfall was louder by far than what I was used to in the Summer months. A lovely place to visit, whatever the time of year.

Boats in a marina in the Grand Harbour of Valetta, Malta.
Lights on the Lee
Lights shine on the River Lee from the new office buildings along the quays. One lone light from a boat on the river makes itself known, not to be outdone by it’s land based cousins.
Blue Cork
Looking across the River Lee towards the Crawford College Of Art And Design next to Nano Nagle Bridge. This was back in August 2019 when construction of the Event Center hadn’t eve.. oh wait, it still hasn’t started, but at least the red brick student accommodation on South Main Street was built. Up until about…

A Donkey at Tullagh Strand
Tullagh Strand in Co Donegal is just one of the many fabulous beaches in that county but behind the strand is a field with two donkeys!
A Storm in the Gap of Dunloe
Heavy rain and strong gusts of wind were the order of the day in the Gap of Dunloe when Blarney Photography Club visited last month. Made for atmospheric photos if you could keep your camera dry!
The Bright Lights of Porto
Exactly 2 years ago in 2019 I was in Porto, Portugal with my team on a company meetup. It’s a beautiful city and I would love to get back there some day! That’s the Torre dos Clérigos in the background.
The sunrise flows
Because of the disc’s enormous magical field, at sunrise, the morning light flows over like thick golden syrup, accumulating in valleys and then slowly crawling over the top of an hillside. The same can be said about the night, which spreads like plum jam.Terry Pratchett Sunrise over Muckross Lake in Killarney, Co Kerry. On a…
The Ballydehob Bridge
Early in October we were lucky to have some wonderful weather for almost hours at a time. I spent some of that time in Ballydehob taking photos of the fabulous bridge there. Ten minutes later it started raining and I was running to the car!
Autumn Colours in Blarney Castle Gardens
I love the colours of the trees at this time of year. We’ve been lucky this year that the autumn and early winter has been so mild. It was 15C today! I think of this display as one last hurrah before the cold and rain and wind really sets in.
The Groynes of Youghal
The groynes on Youghal Beach reach out of a misty sea in this long exposure shot under overcast skies today. Capel Island can be seen in the background. It’s November but it’s so mild. Lovely day for a walk on the beach!
