Dalkey Island at Sunrise, Co. Dublin

This limited edition has been closed, no more prints available. Contact me with any queries.

Description:
It is unusual in photography to get a definitive image of a subject the first time you set out to do so. In this case, this is exactly what happened. I awoke around 4.30 or 5am on this particular morning to be out at Killiney Beach before the sun rose.

As I left the house I knew it would be a good sunrise - the normally ever-present band of cloud at the horizon was absent, so the sun would be visible as it rose. There was plenty of low cloud over the coast to catch the colours as the show progressed.

A good sunrise is quite a thing to watch progress, and the moment the sun first peeks over the horizon is a breathtaking sight. Hopefully this image conveys some of that to you, the viewer.
