After nearly two months of constant rain, weather is finally calming down. I also managed to get back into the water after an even longer break. Still no new photographs, though... one day!

Deborah Parkin Photography Slowing Down. Photographing my Horse series. I have been seeing a new trend lately - 'Slow reading' - in which we are invited to read along ...

I have just written a blog about my approach to photographing my Horse series. If you have the time, I would really appreciate you stopping by.

I have had a few technical problems with sentences going for a walk but hopefully it will be ok.

Beside that I am trying to reduce my ‘social media’ presence as the last months proved that these are rather antisocial. I deleted all apps from my phone so using some of them only from computer and I am super happy with it. That was a plan for a long time ;)

The only usable photograph, created over the last 3 months or so…Weather and general duties kept me away from my cameras.

Happy New Year! I don’t check social media very often, so I’m hoping this is still relevant—even two weeks into 2026 ;)

Fine Art Black & White Photography Prints | Archival Quality - Artur Sikora - Architectural photography Authentic black and white film photography printed as archival pigment prints. Timeless fine art made with analogue cameras and museum-grade materials.

Just a quick note. If anyone needs a last minute gift - photographic print is a nice idea ;)
I believe it is too late to ship it further than Ireland or EU.
Each of them still needs to be printed though ...
Here is the link to my online store with a few photographs:

A black and white image of an old building in the distance with a dimly visible stream in the foreground. The image is very soft and dreamy.

[4/4] All the photos are black and white, so getting accurate tonal reproduction (without any color cast) is especially important
Thanks so much for any advice or recommendations!

[3/4] My project, Coffee Flavour, was done through Blurb, and I was quite happy with it overall. But that was about 15 years ago, so I’m wondering what other good options are out there these days. I might still stick with Blurb, but I’m definitely open to suggestions.

[2/4] I’ve been working on a photography project ‘Before the Leaves Fall’ since last year that I’d like to complete as a photo book or album. Publishing through a traditional publisher isn’t really an option right now for financial reasons. At least for now.

[1/4] Hi Everyone, I have a question for those of you with experience in self-publishing photo books. I’m looking for an alternative to Blurb — something in a similar price range, but maybe with better print quality and good customer service in case of any issues. Preferably in EU.
