2 lovely Gardai arrived on the scene as I took this photo, worried since I was on a pier at 3am! I explained I was shooting photos and showed them my camera. One of them asked my name, I told her, and she told me she Loved my stuff & followed me on twitter - thanks to @BigBoyler !

Finally managed to capture @benbulben22 under the Milky Way, it’s an image I I fought to get anything out of, not even remotely happy with but I thought I’d publish it as it’s my first Milky Way shot including Big Ben, and a crazy green fireball crossed by while I was shooting

My first aurora photos. Waited a long time for this. Basic edits as I’m a total newbie to this. Hightailed it to Skagsanden beach - It came and went in about 25 mins as we were drenched with incoming tides and gale force gusts knocking tripods over. What a night!

Yesterday on the #CopperCoast . Got up before dawn. Forgot the camera such was my haste to get down to Kilfarassy beach at first light. Hightailed it back to the B&B. Came back and it was like this for literally 5 minutes. Felt like a complete idiot but got the shot nevertheless.

Magical aurora last night. Seems like a dream now since a vicious North Atlantic storm is raging here constantly ever since we grappled with tripods in the 100km+ gusts on Skagsanden last night. Waves came in and drenched us but we didn't care, we were looking at the sky.

Symmetry - a lucky stroke this evening. I had wondered if I’d capture the sunset behind the Sligo Cathedral, so I just came out of the house and there it was almost perfectly positioned, two mins and it slotted perfectly in place. And just 50m from my house. Laziest shot ever 🤣

Straddling the #sligo #leitrim boundary is Ireland’s tallest waterfall the Devil’s Chimney, a YouTube misnomer. It’s local name is Sruth in Aghaidh an Aird, which translates as “Stream against the height” due to its phenomenon of blowing upwards when the south wind prevails.

Another of my 2022 fave photos. The Milky Way over Ladies Brae, Ox Mountains. This beauty spot is nestled in one of Irelands oldest mountain ranges. Unfortunately the light pollution (from Coolaney, I believe), made the sky detail less perfect than I would have liked.
