Wow. Those are some fine pictures there. I was in dublin zoo a few months back and i seen more skangers than animals. Thats really impressive. The 2nd pic looks like joan rivers and the 3rd luks like my ma-in-law in a huff. I take it you do this for a living? If not, its something you should consider
Holy sh!t those are absolutely amazing. Well done brother. Are you selling prints?
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
Great pics and the Dublin zoo has a nice selection too.And is that a face behind the silverback?

Absolutly awesome stuff.Pat yourself on the back.Didn't you have the night sky,stars,comet not long ago? Stunning ones here.
Thank you.
Luckily on the day I went, it was too cold for the skangers to be out and about, had the zoo pretty much to myself actually!
I don't do this for a living, just a hobby. I've only been doing photography for a little over 6 months really, got my camera in the middle of June last year.
Cheers man, glad you like them... and never thought about selling them as prints actually! Didn't think I would be near that level yet.
Thanks man!
No face behind the Silverback, but you would make a good paranormal investigator, haha.
Thanks a lot!
And yes, I posted some night sky ones here not too long ago. Surprised they are remembered!

Some of those pictures were taken when I was a total noob to photography, so go easy.![]()
skel your photo skills are fucking ace mate, I'm not a fan of photography or anything but they are some fukking amazing pictures right there.
You can see the beauty in nature so your lens is poked right on the money in each shot.
I see some pHotographers works published of our coast here and really Homer Simpson could of shot them,they even choose the wrong days to venture out to shoot the subject and everything.
You on the other hand have a love what you see and it shows.
That last shot has exceptional reflective qualities the sky and sea are so in sync.

I love all your shots mate
Wow those sunsets in the clouds are something else you know the right time thats an art in self, being there set up on time.
If we get skies like that inland we are driving away from it fast cause its usually a bushfire we get our best and rarest sunsets when theres fires around.
You have a different light there on your side of the world the colors are amazing and you capture it so well even the air looks clean in between the shots.
Our landscapes are usually dry and yellowish inland when we have colored skies so to get a good contrast we have shoot stuff down the beach or out near reflective rocks or reservoirs its rare to get green on the ground with great sun sets here. Up north though you get white trees with green canopies on dark blue skies with deep red earth which is a treat.
Thanks man.
For all its faults, I have to say that Ireland is very photogenic at least! There is a lot of variety here, and some truly weird and beautiful landscapes, mad rock & tree formations etc... and of course, so much green that you wonder if the country is envious of something!
I'm sure Australia has epic beauty, albeit probably harder to finder because of the sheer size of the place and the vast stretches of barren land (though I suppose they can be epic too, to someone like me who is from a country where there is none, haha.) Over here, you're never too far from anything, be it coastal or inland.
I love shooting sunsets, you never know what will happen as they unfold. Some can start off pretty dull and then suddenly explode into a symphony of colour. I've seen some crazy ones in my time, especially on the west coast. You would swear the sky was on fire at times, it was that intense... the sea just adds to the epicness of it! I wish I had all those times the camera that I have now, but alas...
Thanks again, glad you like the shots.![]()
I used to shoot with a Nikonus 3 the underwater model got some nice sunsets too but they are all on paper. Ill see if I can dig some up sometime and scan them in for a gawk.
The subject matter will be interesting to you, but they arent a patch on the clarity and quality of yours though.
