One of Johns favorite quotes was
“I only went out for a walk, and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, i found, was really going in.” (John Muir)

John was a part time landscape photographer from and living in county Clare. He grew up on a farm near Corofin village and was living nearby. At an early age he developed a passion for photography and for the beauty of nature and the Irish countryside. He traveled a lot throughout Ireland photographing and researching the history of Ireland’s countless beautiful ruined churches, castles and monuments. He also spent a lot of time hill walking and taking landscape photos. His favourite place in Ireland was the Macgillycuddy Reeks mountain range in county Kerry. With their rugged beauty, splendid views and peacefulness said he could often empathize with Norman Maclean’s great line from A River Runs Through It “When I am alone in the half light of the canyon all existence seems to fade to a being with my soul, and memories and the sounds of the Big Black Foot River”
John in his work endeavored to portray the Irish landscape and its national treasures in all their beauty and magnificence.

He shot with a Cannon EOS 400D camera and a number of lenses
