Autumnal Abstract #01
An abstract image of a ‘Lionel Fortescue’ through the use of camera motion during exposure. Today I wanted to share how I am progressing in my pursuit of a photograph as an ‘impression’ of a time and place rather then ‘record’.
Water Abstract #1
I had the opportunity over the weekend to spend the whole day with the camera on personal work and wow did I enjoy it. It’s been a waaaaay too long since I’ve had the chance to wander around with nothing to do but take pictures. I’ve been promising myself for a while now to produce something shall we say… less photographic!
A Floral Image | A Burst of Yellow
A Floral Image | A tiny stamen protrudes from a bed of yellow petals of this Tulip. These beautifully vibrant yellow Tulips really caught my eye as I was wandering through the Italian Gardens.
A Floral Image | A Lily’s Delicate Petal
A Floral Image | A close-up image of a Calla Lily flower showing the detailing and texture of the white petals. Back in June last year I shared an image of a Calla Lilly called Hidden from Sight that eventually made it into my Top 10 Favourite images of 2011. Today I wanted to share another composition from that same session.
A Floral Image | Buttercup in the Grass
I spent this weekend with Family down in our usual log cabins at Skeagh Lake in County Cavan. I came across this tiny buttercup almost lost inside tall blades of lush green grass that were drenched after a downpour an hour earlier.

A Floral Image | Three Crazy Daisies
I posted an image of a single Crazy Daisy a little while back and thought I would follow-up today with a slightly different composition.
A Floral Image | Lit from Beneath
My Saturday sunrise trip to Trim Castle turned into an 11 hour photographic marathon and I loved every minute of it 🙂 The images from Trim should follow later this week but to get things kicked off I thought I would post this Crazy Daizy.
A Floral Image | Bird of Paradise Flower
A close-up image capturing the shape and texture of a flowering Strelitzia Reginae with dewdrops on its base. The Strelitzia Reginae, also known as the Bird of Paradise Flower, indigenous to South Africa has been on my photographic list from the first time I saw it almost two years ago in our local Botanical Gardens here in Dublin.
Symmetry
I am currently traveling so this is a post I prepared last week and is being automatically published. Technology eh! its wonderful 🙂 I produced an image of this Orchid last year, in fact the image won a competition which I was delighted about. This is an even closer view of that incredible detail in…
A Hoverfly on a Barrel
I recently shared an image of a Hoverfly resting on a Black Eyed Susan taken on a trip to the Japanese Gardens in Kildare. Well this image was actually taken a full 12 months ago. I was spending a weekend in Cavan with some friends and we took a walk along a forest road and…
