In this protected wetland area there is a small lake which supports a variety of wildlife and is also great for summer swimming.

Wild Carrot is a common Irish Wildflower often found as a garden weed! It has a beautiful structure and is prolific here in the summer.

Worlds inside, interiors, rooms and corners of rooms. Light captured in space and shade.

Wild Foxgloves, Ireland's most spectacular wildflower, photographed on the lane through the years......

During winter when the trees are bare, the lives of birds are more exposed. Swans, robins, blackbirds, dunnocks, finches and tits, flitty and twitchy. Birds are seriously challenging subjects but wonderful company. And there there are these rare moments of total stillness.......

After seeing too many tiresome and endlessly photoshopped women, I enjoy so much photographing them in their natural beauty and joy.

Sometimes you just snap what you can, following your path and documenting each step. On other days you fall into a flow, visualising the image before you even see it, lost in a reverie and yet connected to every fibre of the present. You anticipate certain factors that add up to the right conditions. Still air, soft light, the subject is what you love. Fields of golden daisies, seeding grasses, thistles and drifts of wildflowers. The sun is going down casting long golden beams across the landscape. Even the birds are singing in harmony with the dancing crickets. One hour on one evening as the sun slowly deflates into the sea.

If Ireland is green then Greece is blue.

There comes a day when it's time to hitch up the wagon and take to the road again. Meandering down dusty tracks, feeling the heat of the southern summer, wandering through the leafy northern autumn. There's nothing like a change of scene....Always finding the stillness.

Images from the forest through the seasons.

It's my daily view and it's impossible to resist the changing light through the seasons. It's a small volcanic lake about 90 feet deep at its centre. Surrounded by trees, a forest and some pasture, it is home to wildfowl, herons, swans, hares and badgers.
