Wow wow wow… Every single time I visit Wicklow(Glendalough in particular) I fall more and more in love with the place. What is there not to love!?! It has to be one of my favourite places to visit, photograph, hike and chill out!
These shots where taking after a hike around the Spinc with the family 5/6weeks ago. There’s some photos of the lovely Buddy over on Pet Photography Ireland too.
This morning we had an amazing photoshoot, yet another Earthy Creature shoot. Really going full steam ahead with this bad boy! The wonderful Mirela was just an amazing model. She jumped straight in and did a top notch job!!
Photographers Checklist
If you read my photo-checklist from last weeks shoot, you will see I don’t usually bring all the normal things along. Today was no different! You can add a spade, hammer and three bags of coal to the list for today

I update my facebook page more frequently with a lot of smaller updates, so feel free to ‘Like me‘ on facebook for even more updates.
Here’s the video from today! (and yes that is us burying poor Mirela)
After the shoot yesterday I thought I’d pop up a quick video and two images that haven’t made the final cut. Just imagine how good the one’s that made the grade are!! They won’t be around online for a good few months as I plan to create an exhibition from them!

I was fretting earlier this week when the rain started to threaten but thankfully it was even better than I had wished for. I shot another Earthy Creature(to read more about the series you can get a small insight here) today and it was WATER! The amazing Lynn was the model and she looks amazing I must say! All of the Earthy Creatures will be getting displayed at my exhibition in December/January (so stay tuned for more info on that!)

Hello Hello to anybody out there covered in cobwebs.
I’m sure you’ve noticed this place has gotten fairly quiet over the past two month and it sure has! I’ve been away for a good few weeks and decided to have a proper break – forget about computers, photoshop, facebook, blogs, the interweb and even electricity for a good bit. It’s been great!
Don’t Fret though, I’m back!!
Here’s a shot I took in Westport, County Mayo this weekend. The scenery & light in the west is amazing, that’s the beautiful Croagh Patrick in the background.
Something quite a bit different from my usual – What are your thoughts on the shot?
A beautiful panoramic shot of Lower Lough Bray deep in the Dublin Mountains. You might remember I posted about this before under ‘A Short Photographic Hike‘, that gives you all the info you need on where this is and the hike itself. This was the second time I’ve done the hike. There was a good bit less snow but still a great hike.
There’s some serious resolution in these last few pano’s I’ve been churning out. It’s really hard to convey it by just putting up a web image. I’ll try though – See the house in the image above? Here’s a closer look
Beautiful Irish Panoramic Photos
I’m starting to see a recurring theme to my lastest panoramic hike shots – Meditative
It’s not often I post other people photographs or movies on here but this had to go up. I find myself lucky to have had the chance to see this movie.
My entire life, these are the two words I have based my whole world and ethos around Love Life. It’s such a simple concept and one I wish more people could live by. It costs nothing, makes you happier, makes you smile, helps others around you, it’s contagious.
Earlier I posted a video on Facebook that just stunned me, it made me cry while still keeping a smile on my face. If you have a spare six minutes, I’d recommend watching it. It will provoke some amazing emotions within!!
This is the story of Steve Fugate Sr and how he lost both of his children. Amazing!!
Well it’s been a long long time since I’ve made time to post up on the blog. I have been keeping active on Facebook though, so click on over there every so often if you’re so inclined. As you may have heard my moniter went crazy a few weeks back and that stopped the show for a little while. I now have a new beautiful HP monitor that I’m getting used to.
Below is a shot taken a few months back for Dublin Kendo club, it was a really fun shoot with some brilliant images from the day!
A long exposure shot taken outside Trinity College last night. This is Trinitys brilliant and lovely looking climbing wall. I’m thinking of taking up climbing for the summer months, anybody want to give me a few tips/teach me?
