Landscape

So I decided to get up at 6 (yes I am mad in the head) and headed off to Derryvore Quay for Sunrise.

I was so disappointed in the sunrise, the image below was actually the first photo I took when I arrived at 6.30 (my test shot). There was nothing special about the Sunrise this morning at all, but thats the way it is, its not always going to be a beautiful sunrise, unfortunately 😦

I decided when I was beside Crom Church I would take a quick drive over to it when I was up and got nothing really from Derryvore Quay and it was totally worth it. I just love the peace and quiet this time of the morning, listening to the birds singing before heading to get ready for the day ahead.

I was driving along the teemore road on my way home and spotted these sheep, I couldn’t but not stop and take some photos. I think though the sheep thought I was going to feed them and weren’t very happy with me and chased me out of the field. But I got a photo or tow before I had to jump the fence and get out of there!!!

Please find some of my recent landscape photography. Last June I completed a workshop with John Miskelly through Enniskillen Photographic Society. We were up at 3.30 to be on location for sunrise (got eaten alive with midgets) but it was totally worth it.

I had always wanted to take ‘nice’ landscape photographs but never could. The advice that John gave me that day was invaluable and changed how I took landscape photographs (all for the better of course). I would now love to be able to get out more to take landscape but its not always easy getting away with a baby in the house and one on the way.

I don’t enjoy when the alarm goes of in the early hours of the morning but what I do enjoy is the peacefulness, listening to the birds singing, watching the swans on the water, the calmness, before coming home and back into the morning routine of craziness trying to get out the door on time for work.

If anybody likes any of my landscape photographs and would like to purchase please feel free to contact me.
