Normally when I arrive in a new city, I try to get there as early in the day as possible, but when I left Ireland bound for Paris, that was not to be. Thick fog in Dublin delayed flights and it was winter when the daylight hours are short to start with. By the time…
There’s nothing quite like an authentic Irish Pub, and well, they don’t come much more authentic than the ones actually in Ireland! This one certainly has a classic look rising up off Eyre Street in the heart of Galway. I’ve said it over and over that I left a little part of myself behind in…
Five nights in Paris was just a drop of water in the ocean of time needed to explore this grand city. In fact, it was on my last night there that I finally stumbled over the Palais Garnier in person. I had seen its beautiful room from my walks along the Seine but it was…
Somewhere in the endless sea of trivia in my brain there’s a notation that Chicago is considered by some to be the birthplace of the modern skyscraper. Apparently the soil along the Chicago Waterfront of Lake Michigan is particularly good for building tall buildings and they have grown like wildflowers there every since. Of course…
There was something simply ethereal about my night in a deep Galway fog. I had wandered the streets of Galway’s historic city center many days and nights before the fog rolled in, but in those dense mists, it felt like a completely new place. Have you had that experience of wandering in a deep fog…
On every trip to London, I seem to find myself in Piccadilly Circus on my last night. It’s become a farewell ritual. This vivid picture was taken just steps from Piccadilly Circus in London’s Soho on my last night in the city several years ago. I was wandering the streets with my camera for some…
There was something magical about Williamsburg at night. The glow of Lantern light has such a warm and cozy feel. There’s just something about it that no matter how antiquated it may be, the warm light reminds you of a happy home, doesn’t it? It must have been imprinted on us all long ago. This…
I had less than 24 hours to enjoy the beautiful architecture for which the city of Bath is known. But that short time was more than enough to fall in love with this beautiful city and am certain I will return one day. Pictured here is the beautiful Abbey Church of Saint Peter and Saint…
This print is based on a photo taken at dusk in Galway on my last night in the city. I had taken photos on previous evenings from this same vantage point overlooking the Salmon Weir Bridge over the River Corrib. If you’re in one spot long enough, I think it’s natural to repeat locations, to…
The beautiful Georgian architecture of Trinity College called me back several times during my weeks in Dublin. Yet, it was a photo of taken at dusk on that first night that would be one of my personal favorite pieces of artwork from the venerable university. Years ago, I read someone’s suggestions about the rain in…
It’s architectural photos like this one of windows at night on the streets of Manhattan that I often have the hardest time describing. As a matter of fact this image is so abstract and detailed oriented that I can’t even add details like the name of the building or where in Manhattan you’d find it….
When I spotted Galway Cathedral rising above the River Corrib on my first day in Galway, I assumed the church was quite old, possibly even Medieval. The church is very classical in shape, drawing heavily from Renaissance style architecture. But I soon discovered the cathedral was built over an old prison on Nun’s Island in…
I guess because Galway is both a college town and on the tourist trail through Ireland, there seemed to be a vibrant night life there. I was in Galway about two weeks and every time I was out after dark, I saw people coming and going from a host of pubs and bars in the…
My starry night over the beach at Tybee Island near Savannah is literally the stuff of dreams. I awoke in the middle of the night with this image as fresh as could be in my mind. It was as if I had just looked out the window and seen the moon reflecting in the sea…
More than once while I was touring New York City, I heard it said that the one thing you couldn’t see from the Empire State Building, was, well, the Empire State Building. It’s hard to argue with that logic. And it’s also hard to imagine an iconic view of the New York City skyline that…
The days in Scotland in the winter are so very short. This much accounts for our arriving at Eilean Donan Castle, pictured here, at what looks like midnight! It wasn’t actually as late as it appears, but the sun had set and our little group was being pelted by a driving rain when we got…
I still look back at scenes from the Royal Mile with a very strong sense of nostalgia for Edinburgh. Even though I’ve been twice, Auld Reekie high on my list of places to revisit. If you’ve been or listened to friends who’ve been discuss Edinburgh, you likely understand that sense of longing for that quaint…
I have to say that shooting photos from the top of a bus at night was an incredibly interesting game. While the views were amazing, the photo opportunities basically boiled down to when the bus is stopped at a traffic light. One has to be on the lookout for a moment like the one pictured…
On my first trip to Scotland a decade ago, I did see snow falling over Edinburgh one night. It was a light snow and barely accumulated. The next morning the only sign was a light dusting on the cars, but I’ll never forget the magic of seeing swirling snow against the street lamps of that…
One disappointment from my evening on the top of Rockefeller Center was that the vantage point on the Chrysler Building was not what I considered optimal. Later in my trip, I would discover that the view of the Art Deco Chrysler Buidling from the Empire State Building was much better, providing a great view of…
It should be a given that I have to take photos of all fabulous Red British Telephone Booths whenever I come across them. And yes, you’d be correct to guess that after several trips to Britain, I have taken more than my share of photos of those phone boxes. It’s a weakness for that great…
The night before I was to head out to the Aran Islands, a deep freezing fog set on Galway.For days straight, each morning had been foggy, but on this particular day, the fog simply never broke, and by nightfall, the streets were rolling in a deep fog. And, so I sat out into the cold…
I can’t look at this print from a Night out in Temple Bar in Dublin without feeling the vibrant scene there. Just look at the people out early even on a cold winter evening. The color and motion of the people and pubs in Temple Bar in this print really pulls me in and makes…
During my stay in Ireland, one of the most memorable events was the night a thick freezing fog hit Galway. There had been several days straight of foggy mornings, but on this particular day, the fog never relented and by night, it was pea soup out there. I did what any sane artist would do…
It’s possible that I passed Maloney’s Corner shop numerous times during my weeks in Galway but it obviously never really registered on me. It’s amazing how much a foggy night can transform the streets even of a place you know well. Fog adds a whole separate surreal layer to the moment. The swirling mists on…
