nature photo
October Trees

As some of you know, a while back, I began creating blank greeting cards from my nature images of our surrounding landscape where we are situated overlooking beautiful Lough Derg.


I have been passionate about nature photography for a long time. In particular, capturing nature as it is, without altering images with filters, is my own personal favourite. So much so, my walks over the years took at least three times longer than they should as I captured an image that often disappeared a minute later. The autumn season is when it all began. The beauty of the changing colours as the leaves fall to the ground, leaving trees bare, to expose scenes not available during the summer months.



So this October 2023, I am delighted to bring my nature photography images to the next stage, reframing and resetting some stunning nature images in frames for you to enjoy daily in your home and/or to purchase as a gift for a friend or loved one. You can arrange a viewing and choose your own framed image that can be delivered to you if you live within the local East Clare area. Alternatively, you can come and see my work at our next community market at Mountshannon that will be held on October 7th from 11am to 3 pm and I would love to meet you there.
