Like every year, we spent Christmas in Waterford Ireland. Fortunately, there is always an opportunity to escape the Christmas and New Year madness and capture some of the beauty of this area.

This time I was invited by Owen O’Grady to come to Dungarvan. Together with Frankie Lloyd, we went to the Nire valley in the Comeragh mountains. Owen showed me also the beauty (and the madness) of Dungarvan. Joy and Owen, thanks for your hospitality.

Later in the week, I went to Woodstown beach to witness an amazing sunrise and great light on Tramore beach.

Hope you like the pictures.

A happy new year.
