The photograph

Letters from the Landscape

Bull Rock sits about three kilometres off the tip of the Beara Peninsula, and getting out there requires patience, a good skipper, and a fair bit of luck with the weather. The rock itself is massive, rising sheer from the Atlantic with a natural tunnel running clean through its base. In this photograph, the early morning sun fires straight through that tunnel, lighting it up like a furnace while the rest of the rock stands in heavy silhouette.

Gannets wheel around the summit in their hundreds. The old lighthouse perches on top, long since automated, keeping watch over one of the most exposed headlands on the Irish coast. I love the simplicity of this image. Warm light, dark rock, and that remarkable glow where the sun finds its way through!

Read the story behind these photographs, a walk out along the Beara Peninsula.

Every print

  • Made to order

    Every print is made to order: printed, checked, signed, and packaged for you individually.

  • Hand-signed

    Every print is signed. Unframed and framed prints are signed and titled by hand on the white border beneath the photograph.

  • Archival

    Archival inks on museum-grade materials. Unframed and framed prints are Giclée prints on cotton rag paper.

  • Safe arrival

    Prints are well-packaged, tracked and insured. If one arrives damaged, I'll replace it at no cost.

Before you buy

When will it arrive?

You'll get an email with tracking as soon as it ships. If it's for a date, a birthday, an anniversary or a new home, add a note at checkout or email me at info@petercox.ie. I'll do my best to prioritise it and give you a realistic timeline.

What does shipping cost?

I ship worldwide, and every print from Exhibition size up goes free to Ireland, the UK and Europe. Studio prints and books carry a small charge, and the cost for the size you've chosen is shown under the Add to Cart button. The full table is on our Shipping page, and you'll see the exact cost at checkout before you pay. Every parcel is tracked and insured. Within the EU there's no customs duty; outside it, any import duty or tax is the buyer's to pay.

Does the size include the frame?

Yes. A framed size is the whole frame, edge to edge: 3 inches bigger each way than the print inside it. An unframed size is the sheet of paper, including the white border where I sign and title each print by hand. Canvas and Floating Panel sizes are the face of the piece.

Which finish should I choose?
  • Unframed Museum-quality Giclée print on archival cotton rag paper. Choose your own frame.
  • Framed Black wood frame, glazed with acrylic so it travels safely, with a mount on Exhibition and Feature sizes. Ready to hang.
  • Canvas Gallery-wrapped canvas.
  • Floating Panel Mounted on a 3 mm aluminium composite panel, made in-house. Frameless, no glass, ready to hang. Best for modern interiors and maximum impact.
Can I see it on my wall first?

Yes, free. Send me a photograph of your wall. I'll send it back with the print hanging on it, at its true size and in the correct perspective. Start my free preview

Can I send it back?

Changed your mind? Send it back within 30 days for a full refund; you cover the return postage. If it arrives damaged or isn't right, I'll replace it or refund you, free. And it's guaranteed for life against fading. The full policy

I was so excited to receive my picture today. The Bull Rock holds a very special childhood memory and started my love of lighthouses. Thank you Peter for taking such a beautiful photo.
