Irish Landscape Collection Update

Irish Landscape Collection Update

I'm delighted to announce that I've added the following fine art prints to my Irish Landscape collection.

 Canower View

I was exploring the area around Cashel Bay, County Galway in search of a scene that could sum up Connemara. A rugged rocky landscape, windswept trees, dry stone walls, the sea and inlets, the mountains, and where occasionally the sun shines and creates a truly beautiful scene. As Oscar Wilde put it, Connemara is a “savage beauty”.

I found the scene I was looking for near Canower Pier, and in my mind, and I hope yours, epitomises Connemara.

 Benbulben Up Close and Personal

If you visit the north of County Sligo you can't miss Ireland's famous table mountain, Benbulben. It is the stuff of legend and dominates the landscape for miles. I've passed it many times and promised that I would give it the time it deserved to explore its natural beauty. I wanted to see if I could get a different take on Benbulben, so I decided to get up close and personal. The closer I got the more I noticed the curves and gullies that flowed from the top down the side.

It really was a very grey and misty day, but that just seemed to add a nice bit of drama and majesty to the photograph.

Now available to purchase online.

 

 Maghera Strand

a fine art photograph view of Maghera Strand in Co. Donegal from across Loughros Beg Bay with Owenwee valley and waterfall in the backgroundLoughros Beg Bay, just west of Ardara in Donegal has a number of landmarks all in one area, including Assaranca Waterfall, Maghera Strand, Owenwee Waterfall and Valley, as well as Maghera Caves.

If you head to Loughros Beg Peninsula on the northern side of the bay you can see all of them. I went there to try and include all four landmarks in one photograph. As I was there, the evening sun started to cast a wonderful shadow down the Owenwee Valley, while at the same time contrasting with the grass fields in front of me that was highlighted by lovely golden sunshine. That was the shot!

 Crohy View

an unframed print of the spectacular view of the Donegal coastline seen from Crohy Head along the Wild Atlantic Way.Crohy Head was one of many places that I had marked for a revisit on my return to Donegal. And I have to say that when I did return, I was not disappointed. The hard part was choosing a location and composition, because all the views were stunning. So in the end I selected the old country road and dry stone wall that lead you in to the rest of the beautiful scene. In terms of shooting, the wind was very tricky. Too strong for a tripod, and nearly too strong to stand up in, so I had to shoot handheld which I don't normally do for wider angled landscape scenes. That said, I'm really happy with the results.

Now available to purchase online.

 

That’s it for this update. I’ll be posting again soon with new additions to my Fine Art Photography Collections and other news.
