Brightness on the Horizon

Brightness on the Horizon
Monsters are vanquished, beaten by a brave knight. Lots on the horizon but can\’t quite make it out yet. Onward and upward? Maybe. Time and travel will tell. Happy 2011.

Home from the Sea

Galway, by the water.

Dry Dock

Dry Dock
Near Killarney, one of the many photogenic places to stop along the Molls Gap route that winds through the mountains from Kenmare.

Swans of the Apocalypse

Earlier this year at one of the lakes of Killarney. Shot at Ross Castle.

Pier 57

Pier 57
Taking to the water in New York City for a cruise around the Statue of Liberty and back. Also, baking in the September sun. Toasty. Thinking of a new year photowalk + pints in Dublin city. If you\’re interested, follow me on twitter and we\’ll all have a chat about it when the time comes.

Around Blackrock

Around Blackrock
The opposite side to another shot posted previously. Looking back on Tivoli as we circle around to head back. It\’s all gone a bit Cork this weekend. Hope anyone that traveled to get some jazz into them enjoyed it and similarly, I hope anyone that traveled to get away from the jazz enjoyed that. I suspect we\’re just walking in the door back from the airport about now, having spent a lovely weekend in Scotland. God bless the person who invented blog post queueing…

Sausalito Ferry

Sausalito Ferry
February 2003. My first visit to Canada also brought me to California for a week. It was, as you may expect, a week packed with as many tourist activities as one could possibly squeeze into such a relatively short period of time. I\’ve neglected the blog a bit for the last couple of weeks but I have a good excuse. I\’m on holiday! Seems a bit strange to be looking back on a photo I took in the US so many years ago and writing about it while sitting in a hotel room in New York. Holidays however are coming to an abrupt end in the coming couple of days.

On the way

On the way
On the way down to Gougane Barra last month. On my many, many trips down there I always wanted to stop at this lake but there was always loads of people around. Me? Anti-social?!?

Guide Us

Guide Us
Guidance, lost forever in a small port in Waterford. At least this way if anyone’s looking for it, you know where to go to find it.

Rendezvous

Rendezvous
Two speedboats heading out into the harbour from Crosshaven, as if they were heading toward an oil tanker docked in the Whitegate refinery. The tide was unnaturally high this evening, almost lapping over the walkway on the pier as the boats passed. This of course didn’t leave much beach left for what I had in mind when driving down; macro! Got a few none the less.

The long evenings are really coming back now, there’s a wonderful brightness in the sky until after 9pm! If only the weather would improve a small bit, it’d make catching the golden hour all the sweeter!
