Holga Week is an annual photographic event that celebrates the humble Holga and runs from the 1st to the 7th of October. I frequently miss it, so this year I made a concerted attempt to take part as I have a number of Holgas and love messing with them. They say that if you can …
Photography during a Pandemic
I have been meaning to write this post for a long time, as there has been a gap on my Blog from September 2019 until now, January 2021. The main reason for this is the Global Covid-19 Pandemic. Covid-19 officially hit Irish shores on the 29th of February 2020, when I heard about the first …

Redbull Cliff Diving Dun Laoghaire
This was the first time I have ever attended the Cliff diving event, even though I have meant to go before. It was spectacular to watch people diving from twenty and twenty six meter boards. The sea was approximately 12 degrees Celsius, which is why the competitors were allowed to wear wetsuits, if they wished …
Pinhole Workshop with ID11 Photography Studio
