Galway City Galleries

Salthill Promenade, Galway : A series of pictures taken  by the Blackrock diving board at the end of the promenade in Salthill in Galway. The first nine pictures were taken just after the moon had risen over Galway Bay one evening in September 2007, the second page of pictures were taken at dawn one morning during October 2007 and the pictures on pages 3 & 4 were taken at sunrise in October 2008.

The reason there are multiple versions of some images in the gallery is because those images are available with and without white border (and in some cases, 2 different sized border). 

When you click on the "buy" icon, you will see all available sizes for that image. For any image, the price of the "Gloss" and "Matt" finish is the same, and "Lustre" is more expensive (it is more expensive to print).

The copyright notice does not appear on the final print.

If you have any questions on a particular image, just leave a comment under the image and I will answer it for you.

Lough Atalia : The cold spell this week (January 05-09 2009) has caused ice to form in Lough Atalia in Galway City. The lake is a sea water, tidal pool with a strong tidal curent on the sea side, but is much calmer on the landward side. Ice is unusual here - see  http://johnsmyth.ie/blog/?p=642 for more info.

Galway city - On the banks of the Corrib : Every city should have at least one iconic building to dominate the skyline - in Galway, it is the cathedral. The Cathedral of Our Lady Assumed into Heaven and St Nicholas (in Irish - Ard-Eaglais Mhaighdean na Deastógála agus San Nioclás) began construction fifty years ago (1958) on the site of the old jailhouse.

The black & white pictures in this gallery were photographed as digital [colour] infrared images and converted to monochrome images afterwards. You can read a description of the technique that I use here.

Please note - the copyright signs on the pictures do not appear on ordered prints.

Griffin road, crossed Wolfe Tone Bridge, went up Merchants road into Eyre Square, went down Eglington Street onto Wood Quay and finished up on the Dyke road.
