15 Minutes of Fame Used Up on Coast to Coast TV!

The crew from 'Capital D' ( An RTE programme about whats on in the capital, Dublin) ran a little piece about Phizzfest - Phibsborough Arts Festival and put in a little slot about a recent series of photographs I did for an earlier Phizzfest. Philip Bromwell who wrote, shot and edited the piece gave a great incite into the diverse festival that finished up last weekend.
The piece about the series of portraits starts about 4 minutes into the piece, if you want to fast forward.

'Bleak Beauty' Exhibition shows for July 2011.





Here is a series of photographs that I have been working on over the last 10 years -  photographing Bull Island and its environs. Showing an 'edgyness' not usually associated with landscape photography, the prints display an unsentimental view of the man made Island and structures of the area. The exhibition runs from 1 July until 23 July 2011 at 'darc space' 26 North Great Grorges St., Dublin 1 and is part of PhotoIreland Festival 2011.

Portrait exhibition gets second airing.



The award winning portraits I did for last years Phizzfest - Phibsborough Arts Festival,
are being shown again in Woodstock Cafe, 156 Phibsborough Rd., Dublin 7, on invitation from Phizzfest 2011.
The feedback last year was over whelming and I am delighted to have the opportunity to show the work again. It is an on going project and nine new portraits are been shown for the first time at this event.

New O2 Modem Campaign.

It was interesting to see the final use of the modem shot I did for O2 recently. Such clever use of a marker to give a sense of the dynamic to the simple shot. The power of the magic marker.

Michaél Ó Muircheartaigh- Portrait of a legend.

A definite highlight for me in 2010 was to get the opportunity to take the portrait of one of Ireland's living legends - Michaél Ó Muircheartaigh on his retirement as Gaelic Games commentator for Irish TV and radio. Now eighty years old, at the time of the portrait, Michaél's warmth was immediately apparent. We used the magnificent Croke Park for our location, where he first commentated on a Railway Cup Final on St Patricks Day 1949. It was an honour for me to spend some time with Michaél.
The final portraits were used for the cover of The Croke Park Annual 2010, and to illustrate the accompanying article.

My favourite Michaél Ó quote:  'Sean Óg Ó hAilpin... his father is from Fermanagh. His mother is from Fiji - neither a hurling stronghold.'

Christmas 2010 with a political twist.

Passing a Christmas scene near my house I spotted this succinct little ditty. Happy Christmas.

O2 Mobile Phone Christmas Campaign.

I was delighted to be chosen to shoot a range new mobile phones for O2 for their Christmas 2010 campaign. Mobile phones are very tricky little items to photograph - think of photographing a mirrored box with all lights showing and all information on screen legible. Very satisfying though, when we squeeze the very best, visually, out of each phone. Here are a few examples:
