A blustery Morning on Benveg

Following a challenging work week, I figured the best antidote was a brisk hike up my new found photography happy hunting ground in the Sliabh an Iarainn and Cuilcagh mountain range. Myself and co-photographer Adrian Donohoe set out early and reached Bencroy at sunrise. Cloud and mist was quite dense initially but cleared intermittently to […]

Rain Resentment

Challenged to an assignment titled “Rain” for my local camera club I managed to persuade my five year old son Ben to express his sentiments towards the very heavy rain that was falling outside. He was reluctant to be the one on the outside, so rather than let the opportunity pass, I stood outside the […]

West Cavan & Leitrim Landscape

An early rendezvous with fellow photographer Niall got us to the foot of Slieve Anierin (also known in Irish as ‘Sliabh an Iarainn’, or ‘Iron Mountain’) before sunrise. These mountains are at relative low altitudes at just under 600m and only 30 minutes drive from where we live. A friendly local sheep farmer guided us […]

Taking Care of Business

This gentleman named Aidan was kind enough to allow me to take his photograph as he went about his business one Saturday afternoon on his tractor in north Cavan. I can’t help but reflect on the contrast of his technology versus mine (a very technologically advanced Sony A7r camera versus a Ford tractor from the […]

Photo Pick of the Day – On the banks of the River Erne

Today’s pick is a photo I took along the banks of the river Erne on an early Summer’s morning. Myself and my father travelled up the river by boat in a thick bank of fog. As the sun rose the fog burned off slowly leaving a 20-30 minute period of really beautiful light.

Photo Pick of the Day – Donegal Landscape

This one was taken in June 2013 in Donegal near Mt. Errigal at 5:35am. I had camped out in the jeep that night waiting for the very early morning light and wasn’t disappointed with super quality of light.

On Your Doorstep – Look and you shall find!

This past week I discovered a part of my locality that caught me completely by surprise. I have been to parts of the Cuilcagh Mountains in Cavan several times to photograph Tullydermot waterfall but had not discovered the Cavan Burren (a limestone plateau that is listed as an UNESCO Geopark and littered with megalithic tombs […]

Colour to B&W with Silver Efex Pro 2

You’ve been shooting all day, your memory cards are full of photographic goodness and now its time to import them and take a look at the fruits of your labor. You quickly flag the keepers and discard the others. Sounds familiar so far, right ? But perhaps there is further potential in that pile of […]
