Paddleboarding with his dog
I was in Dún Laoghaire today on a beautiful afternoon. Sandycove Beach and the Forty Foot were both thronged with swimmers and people relaxing. I wish I brought my togs and a towel, but I had my camera and snapped a photo of this gentleman with his dog out on the water, paddleboarding!
Water flows into water
The Mullinhassig waterfall flows in a long exposure shot, on a recent visit there with Blarney Photography Club.
The Rocks of Ballycotton
The rocks of Ballycotton with the sea breaking on them reduced to a fog by a long exposure photo. Ballycotton Lighthouse is visible in the background on an island a few hundred metres offshore. I was there last night with Blarney Photography Club. A lovely evening taking photos and then a bit of a chat…
Enjoy the sun in Schull
Recently in Schull, when the sun was out and the whole world was bright and cheerful. The harbour was full of boats and people were enjoying the day.
Sheep’s Head Sunset
Over the weekend I stayed in a B&B on Sheep’s Head in Co. Cork and of course I had to photograph the sunset from the headland. I shared another photo taken on the same night recently, but I’ve photographed the sunset in this part of the world several times. I wasn’t expecting much as there…
Carrigdrohid on the Lee
The castle at Carrigdrohid, as seen from across the river from my previous photo of the castle a few days ago. I was almost in the river taking this shot, following in the steps of Mark Gorman who waded in further and made a superb shot of the castle.
Light from the cloud
Light pours through a gap in the clouds, illuminating the waters between Sheep’s Head and the Beara Peninsula.
The Castlemartyr Resort Waterfall
When you visit the Castlemartyr Resort in Co. Cork, you cannot miss the waterfall in the river next to the entrance road. It’s a beautiful spot and well worth visiting!
Sunset at Ventura Pier
The waves roll in on the beach at Ventura Beach while the pier extends out into the sea. The pier was damaged in storms and closed in early 2023, but still made for a great subject at sunset. I have so many photos of this pier from that night. I’ll be posting photos of it…
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!
The Boats of Youghal
These boats were tied up in Youghal when we visited in November 2021.
Reflections of houses in the Lee
The colourful buildings of Pope’s Quay reflected in the waters of the River Lee. Thanks Henry for noticing!
