    I learned today that I received a PSA Honorable Mention in the Rhodos salon of the 5th Greek Photographic Circuit for “Raphaella on Point”.  In total I received 27 acceptances across the four salons on a range of twelve images in four sections. This concludes my county entries for my EFIAP distinction submission, now time…

    Tower Bay Cascades

    When mother nature is being an uncooperative lighting assistant, hiding the sunrise behind a bank of clouds, an alternate plan is needed to avoid returning home hungry and empty handed.  This morning I settled for the breaking waves of the incoming tide crashing over the rocks in an endless variety of cascading flows.  See the…

    Bangalore

    It’s been six years since my last trip to Bangalore.  With a recent change in jobs, I’ll probably be heading there more often now.  I was keen to try my Olympus out for some travel photography and I managed to squeeze in two days where I had a few hours to spare.      …

    Being there!

    This weekend I joined a Trail running group Mud Sweat and Runners (MSR) planning a run around the Macgillycuddy’s Reeks in Kerry.  My motivation was of course landscape photography and expanding my horizons.  The trip was organised and lead by Jay JuJu Handyside and ended up being a band of 13 runners of various levels…

    Mayo Weekend – Part I

    This weekend I headed west for some landscape photography on the south shore of Lough Mask near Clonbur, straddling the Mayo / Galway boarder. I arrived late Saturday afternoon in time for a sunset shoot. I started with some shots of my favourite submerged tree on the lake which I had not captured in this…

    Revisiting the landscape

    Never delete images!   The above image was taken in 2008, I’m only got to post process it yesterday!  Back then I would not have used the same techniques and would not have been as happy with the results.  It’s not my favourite image from then, but others seems to like it a lot! I’ve…

    Letter Box Landscapes

    I’m not usually in the habit of making very wide format images, but recently I’ve been asked to fill walls requiring this format so thought I’d look at some of my landscapes and see how the work. I think i have plenty more images that will work well in this format, so might have to…
