    Our degraded landscape… hope for the future?

    Recently I’ve been reflecting on the past ten thousand years of human activity and our impact on the environment and landscape around the world.  Books like “Babylon: Mesopotamia and the Birth of Civilisation” helped put my mind in a timescale of Eons and put the geopolitical behaviors of our “leaders” in perspective, as well as…

    Acueducto del Águila

    Acueducto del Águila (Eagle Aqueduct), also known as Puente del Águila (Eagle Bridge), is regarded across the region as “an historic jewel of Spanish architecture”. It was built in the 19th century and has been used continuously since – today the local community uses it to irrigate farmland. The aqueduct is situated on the Barranco…

    Frigiliana

    Today we explored the streets of the nearby mountain village of Frigiliana.  The bright afternoon sun was obviously a bit harsh for photos, but this place is very charming and I still had to take a few shots.  I’ll be back, sunrise and sunset no doubt to try and do this town justice.

    Flamenco

    So spanish guitar music has a special place in my heart, I learned to play classical guitar from the age of twelve with the motivation solely to be able to perform “Recuerdos De La Alhambra” competently.  I had known this piece from an early age as it was the intro music to Jack Hargreaves “Out…

  • Playa Maro Sunset

    Playa Maro Sunset

    This evening I returned to the same beach we enjoyed earlier today to see if the light on the headland held up to it’s earlier promise.  When I arrived this time,  the shadow from the cliff to the west was already half way down the beach, so I did not hang around at the car…

    Recuerdos De La Alhambra

    It’s been 10 years since our first visit to the beautiful Alhambra Palace in Granada.  Last time we visited in late October and the heat was not so challenging.  This time, we chose to go on a 3 hour guided tour so there was not so much time for photos, nor opportunity, given the crowds…

    Nerja

    On our evening stroll exploring the old town of Nerja, we ended up at Bacóne de Europa and came across the team from Tricor Design, who didn’t mind me taking some portraits of their Flamenco Dancers posing on the steps.  Looking forward to seeing a full Flamenco show later this week in Nerja.

  • A Quick Mayo Tour

    A Quick Mayo Tour

    I drove from Dublin to Clonbur, Co. Galway on Saturday afternoon with no real photography plan.  I started with the evening sunset on Lough Mask which didn’t yield great sunset sky, but I managed to try and make the most of what I found. On Sunday morning I decided a hot day sitting in a…
