Spooky Tree

I loved the shape of this old tree near Inch, Co. Kerry but it was only when I thought of a night-time shot that it came alive. Shot after sunset, when there was still some colour left in the sky, and “painted” with a standard … Read More

Windswept flowers near Garretstown, Co. Cork. This was taken on the first outing for my SoFoBoMo project, which will explore a small 1km section of that coastline.
