There was a photo guide photographer out at Caddo Lake the same morning I was there with a documentary photographer "DPH" accompanying. The DPH was in my frame with some great light, so I documented her. There was some pretty severe lens flare on this shot which was removed to the best of my capabilities. Caddo Lake, Texas, USA, October 2022

Ordinarily I'd clone out those power lines in a heartbeat, but studying this composition, I realised they were essential to a story. If trees could think, both in life and in death, would each 'tree' seen here be envious of each other? One, grown strong and mighty, cut to have use carrying electricity, but denied it's old age; the other, wild and free, yet cruelly misshaped by weather and environment, with no future. other than an ignominious death? (I can hear someone out there saying, "Shut up, Fergal...it's just an ugly tree and a power pole. Get a life.") Seen at Aghinish, Co. Mayo, Ireland.

Ah yes, my friends, it's the time of year to serve up leftover images from 2024. I've got quite a collection this time, ranging from landscapes and B&W, to ICM, to complete garbage. Enjoy! This is from my series taken at Ashford Castle, Mayo/Galway Ireland in autumn. It's an alternate to a previously posted shot; can you guess which one?
The younger generation listen (reluctantly) to a lecture.
