Isn’t it great, that in October, I can still hope to get one or two more great summer walks in? Global warming is working out pretty well for us in Ireland this year, with temperatures still up in the twenties. The only real indication that it’s not summer any more, is the fading light. In…

Sun setting on the summer
On the beach on saturday night (Sept 20th). The days are much shorter now – these shots were taken around 7.30pm. It was an amazing, indian summer weekend. Hopefully the good weather will stick around for a while longer, even if the light has faded.
Searching for Northern Lights
The radio on saturday said there was a strong chance of the Northern Lights being visible over Ireland. So I was keeping an eye out the window. There wasn’t much to see, and it was impossible to pick anything out, from all the light spilling out of sitting rooms and streetlights, but some of the…
Beaches are good in the daytime too
I spend a lot of time on the beaches of Clogherhead, Termonfeckin and Baltray, I’m happy to say. And recently I’ve been taking a lot of shots at twilight, and loving the colours. But I also love the more muted tones you get throughout the day. Here are a few shots taken while walking along…
One way ticket to darkness
Hanging out with the Irish Trader wreck, as the sun goes down could become a bit of a regular thing for me. When the tide’s out, there’s a beautiful, serene atmosphere down there. Only downside is, by the time it gets too dark to photograph, it’s also too dark to find your way home. Some…
Seapoint Golf Club
On Thursday night (July 24th 2014), we headed back to down the beach, and this time, up into the dunes after crossing the river at Termonfeckin. I collected a fair few scrapes and grazes, wading through the undergrowth, before coming out on the quiet fairways of Seapoint Golf Club, as the sun was going down….
Behind the dunes
What an amazing evening we had last night! Myself and Mimi and Pippa were out on the beach from about 7.30-10pm and it was absolute heaven. The sand was soft, and the sea was warm, but all the colour of the fantastic sunset was hiding behind the sand dunes.
Early this morning
These were taken at about 7.00am today, at Oriel Cove. I have to say, I was more than a little reluctant to leave for work this morning.
Some of my favourite people are dogs
My friends, Mimi and Pippa, in their favourite place. My favourite place too.
Time to Bale out
I closed up the summer home in Clogherhead last saturday. Bummer. Where did the summer go? Personally, I’d have liked a bit more sun and a lot less rain, but summer’s still my favourite season, and this is my favourite place to spend it. Here’s a couple of shots I took in the field that’s…
