  1. A couple of kilometres out on a kayak.
    Not alone.
    Behind me, across the bay, seal song sounded out from the caves.

    Not for the first time, from somewhere a butterfly fluttered by, heading towards the shore. For what seems an impossible adventure.

  6. The Photographer and the Cliff

    The cliff below the Baltimore Beacon drops a long way, and the only way to show that was to put a person at the top of the frame. Luckily, a fellow photographer was busy doing the same thing I was doing. I walked over afterwards and spoke to him and his wife. They are Swi...

  7. The Photographer and the Cliff

    The cliff below the Baltimore Beacon drops a long way, and the only way to show that was to put a person at the top of the frame.

    The rain was falling steadily as I photographed this sign on the Sheep’s Head peninsula.

    Curious about the sign, I looked up The Anchorage and found this for sale page saying it was recently sold, but an archive.org copy from 2019 shows the seller was looking for €695,000 back then.

  14. Rocks in the Misty Surf of West Cork

    The restless Atlantic waves become ghostly veils of white mist caressing the rocks on Owenahincha Beach, Co Cork.

    Henry shared a photo of this same rock yesterday. There are lovely swirls of water in his photo.

    Irish autumn. Just visible is Dougal, the perky Jack Russell terrier who likes to patrol the park of Bantry House and assess visitors, sometimes even greeting them.

  16. Strandfund:
    Rest eines (hoffentlich vor dem Kochen betäubten) Hummers🦞 oder der Panzer von einem seltenen orangefarbenen Hummer❓
