Along with the new Exuma Bahamas gallery, I’ve also put up a gallery of panoramic images from the United States. Mostly shot in and around some national parks including Yosemite, Death Valley, Zion, Canyonlands, Arches, Redwood but also around some state parks like Coral Pink Sand Dunes, Dead Horse and also a few random spots...
Finally I’ve had a bit of time to include a new gallery on the website. We’ve been lucky enough to have been to these Bahamian Out Islands multiple times since 2008, well before the infamous Fyre Festival and well before it has blown up on Instagram. The Exuma Islands are perfect for the panoramic format,...
On the same day I shot sunrise at Rosses Point, I added a sunset in Strandhill to give the clients a few more choices. Again, whatever the conditions delivered, I was pressing the shutter anyway. It was windier than I like to shoot in, but I set up the tripod on the edge of the...
I was commissioned a few weeks ago by a future bride to capture a sunrise on a specific date, so she could gift the image to her husband to be on the morning of their wedding. I’ve had this date locked in for a few weeks, and because it had to be shot on a...
When you go out to photograph a potential nice sunset, you really never know what you’re going to get, especially around the Wild Atlantic Way in Sligo, as the Atlantic tends to bring in clouds, rain showers, fronts in the blink of an eye sometimes! Yesterday was one such day. With a lovely clear blue...
The first full moon of 2022 occurred on the 17th January. It was a stunning Wolf Moon. Technically this shot is of the moon the day before, but actually setting on the morning of the 17th. After a late night spent watching the San Francisco 49ers dispatch the Cowboys, I kind of got up too...
With a humongous swell forecast for the past few days, I’ve heard nothing but a constant rumble from our house that overlooks the beach front. With an equally big spring tide, this swell has been causing some serious erosion around the Strandhill coastline. On the third day of the swell, with whatever conditions cause it...
As per a previous post , even though 65:24 is the format that’s always on when I turn on the Fuji GFX50R, it doesn’t mean I don’t use the other available format, most notably the full 4:3 image, which uses all of the available 50 megs that camera creates. Unlike the previous shot, with this...
True to form, Knocknarea saved Strandhill from the first part of Storm Barra on Tuesday. It was no windier than any normal day out here! If you were the only surfer to try surfing, you’d have found super strong offshore winds but nothing major! Then it went calm as the centre passed over us in...
My main reason for shooting with the Fujifilm GFX50R since April of this year, was being able to shoot in 65:24, almost Xpan format. I shot for around 7 years with the Xpan2 in the panoramic format, and put something like over 400 rolls of Fuji Velvia50 through that camera in those years, shooting places...
