"I
only went out for a walk, and finally concluded to stay out till
sundown, for going out, i found, was really going in." (John
Muir)
I'm
a part time landscape photographer from and living in county Clare. I
grew up on a farm near Corofin village and am currently living
nearby. At an early age I developed a passion for photography and for
the beauty of nature and the Irish countryside. I travel a lot
throughout Ireland photographing and researching the history of
Ireland's countless beautiful ruined churches, castles and monuments.
I also spend a lot of time hill walking and taking landscape photos.
My favorite place in Ireland is the Macgillycuddy Reeks mountain
range in county Kerry. With their rugged beauty, splendid views and
peacefulness I can often empathize with Norman Maclean's great line
from A River Runs Through It "When
I am alone in the half light of the canyon all existence seems to
fade to a being with my soul, and memories and the sounds of the Big
Black Foot River"
In
my work I endeavor to portray the Irish landscape and its national
treasures in all their beauty and magnificence. I thank you sincerely

I
shoot with a Cannon EOS 400D camera and a number of lenses
