Lough Leane is the largest of the famed Lakes of Killarney. Seen here on a snowy winter's morning, the Purple Mountain group (Shehy, Tomies and Purple Mountain itself) appear out of the fog above the mirror-like lake.

Geokaun Mountain is the highest point on Valentia Island. In this classic panoramic view looking east, Fort Point and the Valentia lighthouse are visible in the bottom right. Beginish Island and Doulus Head also make an appearance.
I was even able to bribe some sheep to wander into the frame at left for the authentic rural Irish experience!

The beach at Búðir at first was uninspiring, but walking further along reveals a wonderland of boulders and rock formations. This image was made after scrambling over seaweed covered boulders to a relatively flat raised platform. The light lent itself to a black and white interpretation and the lenticular clouds over the distant mountains complements the form of the water between the foreground rocks.
A one minute exposure was used to blur the water.

The Quiraing is one of the most dramatic spots on the Isle of Skye. The famous tree clings to the side of a gully with the lakes and mountains of the Trotternish Ridge beyond.
As someone who has a number of Peter’s works I am absolutely thrilled to be adding this beautiful picture of Scotland’s Lough Leven to my collection. Peter's unique ability to capture the beauty of the Lough at sunset is truely amazing. During this chaotic time I always find a sense of tranquility when I gaze upon the picture.

A rarely seen angle on Skellig Michael, looking from the northeast. The monastery is just behind the ridge of the leftmost peak, while the lone hermitage clings to the slopes just under the summit of the right peak.

Photographed just after sunrise, this view from the western end of Skellig Michael shows the two lighthouses very effectively. As shafts of sunlight penetrate the clouds and light up the sea, the abandoned northern lighthouse sits high on its ridge in the centre of the frame. The still-operational southern light is very visible with its white painted walls.

Inis Tuaisceart, or as it's also known, the Sleeping Giant or an Fear Mearbh is blanketed in low cloud as the sun sets behind it, illuminating the sea around it with rich golden light.

Gougane Barra is effectively my back garden, and it's also my office as that's where I run my Cork-based workshops.
Always beautiful, every once and a while you're treated to something really special, which is what happened on this beautiful October morning.

Killarney and its surroundings are one of the gems of Irish landscape. In this image, a long exposure looking out over Lough Leane to the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, some of that drama comes to life.
Purple Mountain, Cnoc an Bhráca, and Cruach Mhór are all visible. Carrauntoohil and the rest of the Reeks are all lost in the dark clouds beyond.

Taken from the pass known as the Priest's Leap (Léim an tSagairt), looking south towards Bantry Bay. Behind me is the Cork/Kerry border. The cross provides a visual anchor and the scattered cloud and isolated light in the valley below complete the image.
Local legend has it that a priest being pursued by soldiers made a miraculous leap from near here and landed a mile or two from Bantry - quite a distance!

An Tiaracht is an island of many names. Also known as Inishtearaght, The Tearaght and Tearaght Island, all these names mean the same thing - 'The Westerly', or 'Westerly Island'. This is a pretty good description, as not only is it the westernmost of the Blasket Islands, it's also pretty much the westernmost point of Europe, with the exception of the nearby Foze Rocks.
In my opinion, the lighthouse on the island, which was constructed in 1870 and made automatic in 1988, is the most dramatic of any of the lighthouses around the coast. It's also one of the least well known as it's invisible from the mainland - sitting as it does on the western end of the rock.
The island is a pair of jagged, steep-sided pyramids reaching a maximum height of 656 feet above the sea. Joining them is a saddle pierced by a natural tunnel. The light itself is at a height of 275 feet on top of a 55 foot tower.
This image was made during a maintenance flight out to the lighthouse, but due to the stormy conditions we were unable to land. However, it did provide me an opportunity to photograph the island as it was pounded by an angry sea.

Another image from one of my favourite locations in Ireland - the Doo Lough valley. This view is looking south across the northern lake towards Ben Gorm, with the Sheefrey Mountains to the left and Mweelrea to the right. Another infrared image, the contrast in the mountains along with the fantastic clouds due to the just-clearing storm lend a real drama to the scene.

The Colleen Bawn Rock is one of the scenic highlights of the Killarney National Park. This image, with Torc Mountain on the left, was made at sunrise on a late spring morning. It was an unpromising start at 4.30am when I woke up, but the clouds broke up to give the dramatic sky you see in the photograph.

Ballynakill Harbour is adjacent to Letterfrack, a tourist hub for the nearby Connemara National Park. It sees few tourists, being off the beaten track. However, from the air it is a pleasing foreground for the Connemara hills in the background.
Diamond Hill is the prominent cone-shaped mountain in the centre of the image, with the Twelve Bens beyond. To its left, you can see straight down the Kylemore Glen with its abbey clinging to the slopes of Doughraugh Mountain to the left.
