“Watching Watchers Watch.”
– SJ Mannion
I took this image of the Fort Foot in Sandycove at sunrise on a beautiful but chilly April morning. It was my first image of the day and it is my favourite image to date. As I set up my tripod, an early morning swimmer and his dog walked in front of me and stood mesmerized by the early morning sun. At first I was annoyed but quickly realized that it was they who would complete the shot. The Forty Foot is located beside the Martello Tower, featured in James Joyce’s Ulysses
Edition is now sold out.

A nightscape photo of the Forty Foot in Sandycove, County Dublin in November at night. It’s one of my favourite place in County Dublin to photograph. The Forty Foot is one of the most iconic locations around Dun Laoghaire and is a real gathering point for the locals, especially during the nice weather when loads of swimmers congregate and sales of Teddys ice cream go through the roof! You even get the brave simmers who always go on Christmas Day!

“Warp and weft, a tapestry of stone, time made.”

A landscape photo of Black Head in the Burren, County Clare. These are some of the oldest stone walls in Ireland. I love the contours of the Burren. The overlapping forms of the hills in the background compliment the strong form of the limestone Stone in the photo. The limestone walls turned a warm hue at sunset.

A sunset Photo of Howth along the Howth Way captured of the stone monolith at the aptly named Red Rock beach. It’s a beautiful walk along the North Dublin Coast which starts in Sutton and makes its way toward Howth. The soil in the area is a deep red colour. Made all the redder because of the warmth of the sunset.

A Photo of rural Ireland showing the beauty and charm of the Irish landscape. I took the photo of a stone wall, while driving around the Beara Peninsula in west Cork. The wall, fishing nets and natural landscape have become one harmonious entity, full of character.

I found this washed up doll one morning at sunrise sunbathing on the rocks! I was taking sunrise photos of Sandymount Strand at the Pigeon House. The warm early morning light bathed Poolbeg Power Station in an incredible light. The dark clouds increased the warmth of the scene.
