The mountains at Gougane Barra, County Cork, lit by low golden sunlight with mist and cloud wrapping around the peaks, bare birch trees and scrub along the base of the valley, brown reeds and grasses lining the shore of the almost still lake that reflects the warm mountain tones, and a small brown sign post visible on the far-left bank.

Gold on the Mountain at Gougane Barra

The cloud had been sitting on the mountains all morning like a hat pulled down over its eyes, and then for about fifteen minutes the sun broke through low and side-on and set the entire rock face above Gougane Barra on fire […]

An autumn lakeside scene at the Lakes of Killarney near O'Sullivan's Cascade, with a lone boat carrying a figure on calm blue water, a leaning tree with yellow leaves overhanging the lake from a mossy shoreline bank covered in orange bracken, and misty forested mountains receding into the background.

The Lone Boat at O’Sullivan’s Cascade

There was a single boat on our little corner of the Lakes of Killarney. I’d walked down from O’Sullivan’s Cascade to join other photographers from Blarney Photography Club. They were busy photographing the same scene you se […]

Long exposure photo of a group of photographers with tripods on a dark sandy beach at dawn, their figures rendered as ghostly blurs by the slow shutter speed. Cameras on tripods remain sharp while the people appear translucent against a dramatic sky of streaked clouds. A streak of light on the left is another photographer with a light on their head walking away. Rocks jut from the shoreline to the right.

Photo of photographers with tripods spread across a beach at dawn, some clustered near jagged dark rocks while one stands alone on a rocky outcrop to the right. Wet sand reflects a sky of layered grey and pink clouds. Mountains are visible on the far right horizon. Footprints mark the sand in the foreground.

Waiting for the Light

Nothing sorts the casual photographers from the committed ones quite like an early morning alarm on a Kerry beach in March. This lot from Blarney Photography Club were out on Cappagh Strand before first light, tripods planted in the wet […]

Photograph of a harbour navigation beacon silhouetted against a vivid sunset sky at the mouth of Ballycotton Harbour in County Cork, Ireland. The beacon's mesh panels and mast are dark against bands of deep orange, pink, purple, and navy cloud. The rooftops, trees, electricity poles, and power lines of Ballycotton village are silhouetted along the bottom of the frame. The beacon lights are unlit.

Silhouette at the Harbour Mouth

There’s a narrow window just after sunset when the sky goes absolutely wild, when the sun has dropped below the horizon but the light is still bouncing around in the atmosphere, and you get these incredible bands of colour […]
