From a hike in Dromore Wood Nature Reserve in County Clare several years ago… The winding paths, soft moss underfoot, and golden light filtering through the trees make it easy to understand the Japanese practice of “forest bathing.” There’s something deeply healing about being surrounded by nature’s quiet wisdom. 🌿

Have a great week!

The legendary Irish Mist rises from the rolling hills and pastures near Lissycasey, County Clare, as the sun greets Ireland’s Galtee Mountains in the distance. I captured this tranquil moment in December 2014 — that magical time when night yields to dawn and the land seems to breathe.

The mist forms when warm air from the Atlantic’s Gulf Stream meets colder Arctic air drifting across Ireland — a dance of elements that gives rise to the soft veil we call “Irish Mist.”

In the background stand the Galtee Mountains, Ireland’s highest inland range, soaring to 3,009 feet and stretching across counties Limerick and Tipperary. Shaped by ancient glaciers, the Galtees remind us of the immense forces that carved this island’s timeless beauty.

(And a fun fact: Irish Mist is also a whiskey, and Galtee is one of Ireland’s beloved food brands — their thick, flavorful rashers are a true breakfast delight!)

I’m both humbled and incredibly excited to share this news…

Next week marks one of the most meaningful milestones of my art journey so far — with my work being featured in two major international exhibitions in London and Paris.

The three images at the top of this collage — “Autumn Mist at Killone Lough” (County Clare), “Shimmering Irish Autumn” (County Galway), and “Nature’s Summer Tapestry” (near Kildysart, County Clare) — will be exhibited at the Salon d’Art Contemporain at the Carrousel du Louvre, Paris, France, right under the iconic Louvre Museum from October 17–19.

At the same time, my artwork “Poppies and Wildflower Meadow” (captured in County Galway) will be circulating through London on one of the city’s iconic Black Cabs for two weeks starting Monday, while “Flowers in the Castle Moat” from Markree Castle, County Sligo, will be displayed inside the cab.

To see my Irish-inspired images travelling the streets of London and exhibited beneath the Louvre feels surreal — a dream come true that began in the quiet fields and lakes of County Clare.

Thank you all for your support, encouragement, and kindness over the years. You’ve helped make this journey possible, and I’m deeply grateful.

Stay tuned for photos -- I'll be in London and Paris for both events!

Autumn’s masterpiece on full display. Golden, crimson, and emerald hues ripple gently in the mirror-still waters of County Clare’s Cloon River.

I captured this scene in the magical Irish countryside in 2016, where the trees seem to whisper their secrets to the stream below — a quiet reminder of nature’s graceful dance through the seasons.

A stormy sunrise breaks over Ireland’s Shannon Estuary near the County Clare village of Kildysart. After a night of wind and rain, the clouds began to part just as the sun rose, casting an unforgettable orange glow across the water and the distant Galtee Mountains.

That lone tree by the shore stood like a quiet witness to the drama above — a moment of peace after nature’s stormy performance. I captured this scene several years ago, but its memory still lingers.

Autumn Stroll in Clondegad Wood, County Clare — I rarely include people in my images, but my Alaskan friend, Elizabeth Odell, was wearing a brightly coloured jacket on this October day in 2015 — the perfect accent against the golden canopy of Clondegad Wood. The winding path, dappled with fallen leaves, felt like a gentle invitation to pause, breathe, and simply be.
