I recently visited New York for the first time in several years. Walked the legs off myself, met wonderful people, saw some great art and ate some astonishing sandwiches.

Read More100 Views of Contemporary Ireland
I was asked to contribute an image to the 100 Views of Contemporary Ireland exhibition, which marks the first decade of PhotoIreland. The show is running at the Library Project in Dublin between 12-29 March as part of the St. Patrick’s Day festival. This is my contribution, and prints and postcards of all of the images will be available from the Library Project.
Annaghmakerrig
I’m staying at the Tyrone Guthrie centre in Annaghmakerrig, getting some writing done. It’s a fantastic place, which I wrote about for The Dubliner magazine a few years ago - you can read the article here.
The Fading Light
The sun goes down over Beaubourg.
Pathé, Baby
I found these two reels of film on the street after the Place d’Aligre Market yesterday. My sister also found some treasure there last year, and is turning it into this fascinating project.
The first film I ever saw in a cinema was Laurel & Hardy’s “The Music Box” in the Carlton on O’Connell Street. I wasn’t much more than a baby myself but can still remember the thrill of it, very clearly. This is a different L&H film - does it look familiar? And if anyone has a 9.5 mm single-perforation projector please get in touch, I’d love to see what’s coming out of the garage in the other one…
Into The Woods
I was given an unusual commission over the summer - to photograph some woods in the Wicklow mountains. They belong to a friend’s father, but as he’s become too unwell to visit them she wanted some prints made so she could bring the woods to him.
Here are some of my favourite images from the shoot.

How Paris feels at the moment.
The chaud must go on...very much looking forward to this weekend’s shoot in relatively balmy Antwerp for Cara Magazine .
Cuban Love Songs
One of the photographs from a piece I did on Havana for the Irish Times is being used in this forthcoming anthology of Cuban poetry, designed by my sister’s company Kate Horgan Bespoke Books.
The rest of the Havana pictures and the article can be seen here.
Blue blue electric blue
I shot this portrait of Ali, a friend’s daughter, while working in Sri Lanka. I like it so much I made it part of my entry to this year’s lensculture portrait awards. Sometimes the simplest portraits are the best.
Saturday Afternoon, Canal St. Martin
It was cold, half-overcast, but still good to be beside a body of water.
