The Hills off Inch Beach
Off Inch Beach in Co Kerry, in August 2015. A lovely sunset casts a glow on the hills opposite. A slow, long exposure blends the waves together.
Emma Lou in Ballycotton
Some of the boats in Ballycotton a few weeks ago when Blarney Photography Club visited. A trawler with the name Emma Lou was in the foreground, but also visible were smaller boats, and the local search and rescue boat that had just arrived.
The boats of Ballycotton
During another trip with Blarney Photography Club to Ballycotton we were lucky to have a very calm evening. A light breeze disturbed the water, and there were clouds in the sky to make for an interesting sunset.
Crosshaven Sunset
The town of Crosshaven is reflected in the waters of Cork Harbour while the sun sets off to the side of the town.
Cork Eir Building at Sunset
I was out with Blarney Photography Club on Thursday night in the city. The sun was setting when I decided we should head to Bell’s Field. I thought we had about 30 minutes, but with the hills opposite, the sun sank out of sight much earlier. Driving up there, through St. Luke’s, we got there…
Someone forgot their tripod
Henry’s tripod made for a nice subject to break up the reflection of the sunset at the beach in Youghal.
Sunset on the Youghal Boardwalk
Just after the sun set over Youghal last Thursday night and someone noticed people walking on the boardwalk.
Sun setting on the Youghal groynes
The sun set on an absolutely clear sky on Thursday night in Youghal. I was there with Blarney Photography Club, and as you may have guessed from the photo, I was wearing wellies. We had fun photographing the outgoing tide, and when the sun eventually slid towards the horizon the reflected colour in the sea…
The yellow glow of sunset
I walked out my front door last night and spotted a fiery sunset behind the houses across the road. The colour slowly changed over the next ten minutes as the sun sunk further and further beyond the horizon. I took 151 photos of the sky that night, most of them taken with me waggling my…
Streaks of Sunset Light
You may have seen the stunning sunset photo from Crosshaven that I shared yesterday. Well, here’s another shot of it for you. This one doesn’t look like a typical sunset, does it? Except for the warm orange glow. That’s because I used a technique called Intentional Camera Movement, or ICM for short. It involves zooming…
Sunset in Crosshaven
The sun sets over Curraghbinny Wood as I watched from the Crosshaven side. There was the most amazing glow in the sky that lasted several minutes, a nice end to a glorious day.
Evening Walk on Achill Island
A few years back, during our holiday on Achill Island, we decided to take a stroll on a beautiful evening. The warm air and clear sky set the perfect ambiance. As we walked, I noticed a sign that cautioned drivers about children playing in the area, while the Moon shone brilliantly in the evening sky.
