2020 Streaming Desk

2020 Streaming Desk The events of last year forced me to improvise my setup when it comes to streaming. I chose to suffer lockdown in Ireland, and that caused me to become separated from my long standing studio setup of over 10 years. My overwhelming thought at the outset  was. Oh how times have changed……

Perfect Storm

Perfect Storm This just encapsulated everything that I adored about living in the North West of Ireland. The Crowded House song “Four Seasons in one day” would constantly be playing in my head while living there. I really dislike cloudless skies, the clouds for me make a landscape image. So, the weather up there was…

King of the North

King of the North Alice, Ana and myself went out with the cameras around the Ben Bulben Horseshoe path. We were walking up the small twisting road when some sheep appeared high on a ridge on right. All but one of the sheep ran away as we approached except…  This one. He calmly walked to…

“O”

“O” I love this image so much. As you can imagine, it was taken in a moment of reflex, no time to prepare, just do it. The main thing that happened was it quickly became associated with a song I liked, and now, they are one… So the song is “O”, it is from the…

Mothers Day

Mothers Day 2020 I love this image on so many levels. The colours, natural light coming in from a rooftop window. Completely natural expressions, genuine love and affection. Just beautiful. A great mothers day moment. Alice and Ana asked if I would take some pictures of them. I had no idea they were dressing up.…

Ben Bulben Tree

B Ben Bulben, Tree I spotted this wind blown tree on a dog walk with a friend. We went to a walk at the base of Ben Bulban, Sligo. I could not stop looking at this tree, the symmetry with the triangle shaped field in the background just spoke to me… I stopped and viewed…

Wadi Bani Auf

Wadi Bani Auf I went on a guided tour to get a taste of the more local environment. What a day I had. This was one of my favourites from the day, I remember being at the bottom looking up at this mountain. Here obviously I am close to the top looking down the path…
