Dublin City by night - viewed from the Bull Wall this evening.

📍 Baldoyle Estuary 🗓️ 1st May 2025 🎹 O mio babbino caro What a stunning May day memory. The pre sunrise colours, this beautiful stillness and an amazing sunrise were the fantastic reward. Amazing. Happy May Day. #baldoyle #dublinsunrise #irelandseye #natureatwork #discoverireland

Currachaí na Sceirí ag teacht abhaile ❤️ A lovely memory from this day last year - so beautiful watching the crew of Currachaí na Sceirí coming back to land at Skerries as the sun was setting.

Sunset vibes from Gyles Quay, Co. Louth yesterday evening.

Sunset colours yesterday evening at Newtown Cemetery, Mountbagnal, Cooley.

📍Mount Oliver, Dundalk 🗓️ 30th April This property began life as a detached Georgian house, built circa 1780. In 1935 the house was purchased by the Franciscan Missionary Sisters for Africa and it became their first convent in Ireland. The rapeseed adds some gorgeous yellow.

The tide was coming in, the moon was out and the sun set beautifully at Gyles Quay, Co. Louth. And then the sky turned orange, red and pink. So beautiful. 📍Gyles Quay 🎹 My love is like a red red rose 🗓️ 29th April 2026 #gylesquay #sunset #dundalkbay #irelandsancienteast #countylouth

Stunning colours at Gyles Quay, Co. Louth this evening.

Golden hour, golden wishes. ✨ Dandelion geometric orbs catching the last rays of golden light before the sun sets over Dublin. Taken from the start of the Howth cliff walk near the Sutton Martello tower yesterday evening. #howthcliffwalk #lovindublin #thehumbledandelion #dublinsunset #loveireland

Some beautiful sunset colours in the sky over Dundalk Bay at Gyles Quay, Co. Louth yesterday evening. 🎹 Whispering Hope (written in 1868 by Septimus Winner)

📍 Gyles Quay, Co. Louth 🗓️ 27th April 2026 Some lovely sunset colour and a bright moon over Dundalk Bay at Gyles Quay this evening.

Watching the sun nestling perfectly behind Haulbowline Lighthouse from Ballagan shore this morning - a stunning way to start the day. #carlingfordlough #sunrise #photopills #discoverireland

Haze, horses, and horizons - a beautiful peaceful country road on the Cooley Prninsula for sunrise this morning. #ballagan #cooleypeninsula #sunrise #loveireland

📍 Ballagan, Co. Louth 🗓️ 27th April 2026 The calm just before the sun rose this morning. A long exposure where the morning fog met the haze of the Mourne wildfires as the oyster beds in the foreground lead you towards Haulbowline Lighthouse. #carlingfordlough #haulbowlinelighthouse #longexposure

Sunrise on the Cooley Peninsula this morning was a mix of sea mist and smoke drifting from the Mourne wildfires, creating a hazy glow. While the view is beautiful, it’s heartbreaking to think of the damage to the flora & fauna on the mountains. Respect to the NIFRS crews out there fighting the blaze

The sheep were sitting, enjoying the sunset view from the Flagstaff, Co. Armagh, with the silhouette of Slieve Gullion in the distance.

Coming into land …. Black Guillemot at Gyles Quay, Co. Louth this morning.

🌸 Spring in Full Bloom 🌼 Stunning sun-soaked rapeseed fields near Mount Oliver, Ballymascanlon and delicate cherry blossoms at Dowdallshill providing some fab colour today around Dundalk, Co. Louth. #Dundalk #Louth #CooleyMountains #Springtime #DiscoverIreland

The historic settlement of Clonmacnoise was established by St. Ciarán in the 6th century. This monastery was strategically built along the banks of the River Shannon. It was wonderful to visit this peaceful historic site in some amazing sunshine yesterday. 🎹 Boolavogue

All of these photos have one thing in common - they were all taken on this day over the last few years (although I was camera shy today). #onthisday #lotstosee #lovelymemories

I don’t think there’s a bad time to visit the National Botanic Gardens of Ireland in Glasnevin, Dublin but this time of the year is stunning for the tulip displays alone set against the backdrop of some fabulous Victorian architecture. These clips are from this time last year.

"We don't inherit the Earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children" The theme for World Earth Day 2026 is “Our Power, Our Planet.” It’s a reminder that saving the environment starts with the small, everyday choices we all make together. #worldearthday2026 #OurPowerOurPlanet

On this day last year... 🌷 Who needs Amsterdam when we have these stunning tulip displays right here at the National Botanic Gardens in Dublin. Looking back at this photo from a year ago - the Victorian ‘Great Palm House’ makes for a stunning backdrop. Definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful bluebells on display on a morning walk in ‘The Big Wood’, Warrenpoint, Co.Down.

A virtual walk through the Big Wood from this morning. The birds were singing their hearts out and the bluebell carpet amongst the trees was just beautiful. Make sure to check out the photos towards the end of the video! 🎹 Le cygne / Camille Saint-Saëns

Just another Haulbowline sunrise … a beautiful morning earlier today

Some stunning cloud inversions over Carlingford Lough this morning (20th April) with the peaks of the Mourne and Cooley Mountains & Slieve Gullion almost looking like islands in the sky. Taken from the Turf Mountain above Omeath. #carlingfordlough #mournes #slievefoye #slievegullion #cloudinversion

Islands in the sky The Mourne, Cooley, and Gullion peaks peeping through the clouds this morning as Carlingford Lough vanished under a blanket of fog. A ‘Dawning of the Day’ to remember. 📍 Viewed from the Turf Road, Omeath 🗓️ 20th April 2026 🎶 Fáinne Geal an Lae #carlingfordlough #ireland

📍Charles Bridge, Prague 🗓️ 16th April, 5:55am To beat the crowds at one of Prague’s most iconic landmarks, a sunrise excursion was the only way to go. Even at dawn, the bridge had a few early birds, but the reward was a lovely sunrise vista while the street lamps were still on

Stunning cloud reactions from Victoria Lock, Co. Armagh looking over Newry Canal and River and featuring Slieve Foye, Co. Louth. A lovely memory from this day 2022.

A beautiful Dublin evening. May need a click for full view.

If you’ve got it flaunt it 🤣 Fun fact: That shimmer is called "train-rattling." They usually save this move for when there's a lady nearby (which there was!).

The lady was not for wooing … at least not on this occasion. A peacock fanning and shaking his train while the peahen remains unimpressed in the background. 📍 Waldstein Garden, Prague 🗓️ 16th April, 2026 🎹 from Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker #PeacockDisplay #BirdWatching #Unimpressed #Friendzone

Some lovely on this day memories from 2025 and 2024 Aurora at Ballykeel Dolmen, Co. Armagh Sunrise over Haulbowline Lighthouse as a ship passes by. From Ballagan on the Cooley Peninsula Black Guillemot at Gyles Quay, Co. Louth Long exposure at the sleepers at Gyles Quay

A few of Prague’s beautiful Magnolia trees putting on a show. 🗓️ 15th April, 2026 🎹 from Fantaisie-Impromptu, Op. 66 by Chopin #prague #magnoliatrees #visitprague #beautifulblossoms

A sunrise to remember: Burrow Beach, Howth Peninsula exactly 5 years ago today. That vivid pink sun was the effect Saharan dust clouds drifting over the coast. Amazing to witness. #burrowbeach #pinksunrise #howth #dublin #saharandust

📍Benbulben Forest Walk, Co. Sligo 🎹 Éamonn An Chnoic The original plan had been to climb Benbulben, but the weather had other ideas. Even down on the forest trail, the wind was powerful - definitely wouldn’t have liked to face those gusts on the summit! 💨 #benbulben #ireland

This day last year - moonset (97.4%) over the sleepers at Gyles Quay, Co. Louth as the moon turned from orange to red before it faded behind some low lying cloud. #moonset #gylesquay #onthisday #discoverireland

Standing in Awe A silhouette of a man standing by Howth Lighthouse as the sun aligns with the lantern gallery, captured from the vantage point of Claremont Beach. A beautiful morning from one year ago today. #howthlighthouse #sunrise #photopills #mansilhouette #dublinireland

Leading lines to Ireland’s Eye at sunrise. Taken from Burrow Beach on the Howth Peninsula, Dublin a year ago today. #burrowbeach #irelandseye #sunrisecolours #dublin #ireland

This was one of the nicest sunrises from Burrow/Claremont that I’ve witnessed - captured exactly 1 year ago today. I love how the silhouette of the man stands in awe as the sunrise aligns with the top of Howth Lighthouse. Playing ‘The Water is Wide’ on the 🎹 to match the mood.

More beautiful sunrise memories - this time from Skerries, Co. Dublin on this day last year as the sun rose over Rockabill. Rockabill is a pair of small granite islands situated approximately 6 km east-northeast of Skerries in County Dublin. #skerries #rockabill #lovindublin #discoverireland

This was the stunning sunset on display at Gyles Quay on this day last year. Amazing vibrant colours with the help of some Saharan Dust. So beautiful to see. And on the 🎹 I’m playing ‘Beautiful Dreamer’ (by Stephen Foster) #gylesquay #pinksunset #loveireland

A wonderful sight this morning last year - watching a beautiful Omega sunrise from Ballagan shore looking towards Haulbowline Lighthouse. Playing ‘Love’s Old Sweet Song’.

What an incredible day for sunrise and sunset on the Cooley Peninsula this day last year! It was amazing watching the changing colours and shapes - a fabulous ‘Omega’ sunrise over Carlingford Lough and some stunning colours (with a little help from some Saharan Dust) for sunset at Gyles Quay.

A stunning sunrise aligned with Haulbowline Lighthouse on Carlingford Lough this morning. Beginning with the early pre-sunrise colours, then as the sun peeped over the horizon, and finally as it cleared the top of the lighthouse - so beautiful to witness. #loveireland #photopills

Pre sunrise colours on the Cooley Peninsula this morning. Looking across the oyster beds to the Mourne Mountains and Haulbowline Lighthouse this morning before a stunning sunrise.

Haulbowline’s best ‘rocket’ impression this morning 😉 #carlingfordlough #cooleypeninsula #lovindotie #sunrise #haulbowlinelighthouse
