Hello, I'm George, welcome to Ireland! I live in Dingle, County Kerry, Ireland, surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean and the hills and mountains of the Dingle peninsula. Beginning with childhood holidays at my mother's home in Dingle and eventually moving here to pursue scenic photography full-time, I've spent over 30 years exploring and photographing County Kerry as well as the rest of Ireland, discovering the backroads and small lanes that meander along the hillsides, through the farmlands, past ancient churches, castles, standing stones and even farm tracks, that just end abruptly on the wild Atlantic coastline. Since 2016, I've been leading tours and teaching photography workshops for all abilities, whether you're an absolute beginner, serious amateur photographer, or just want to take beautiful shots on your phone. I carry tripods and filters in the minibus which you are welcome to use with your camera or mobile phone. For those who wish to experiment with a DSLR camera, I have a few models you can try - just request this when booking. You can improve your photography using any camera, device or phone while visiting a variety of stunning and carefully chosen locations, largely away from the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist routes. Visit parts of Ireland you'd never generally get to see, as we follow the back roads, narrow lanes and trails, discovering landscapes that will both captivate and enchant you. Over 30 years I've explored Ireland with my camera along the Atlantic coastline from Kinsale to Donegal and beyond into County Antrim in Ulster. I can use this intimate knowledge of Ireland to tailor a private day tour to your exact requirements, whether you want to improve your photography, or just sit back, relax, and enjoy the amazing scenery, from ancient castles and ecclesiastical sites to stunning beaches and cliffs or mountain passes. If you want to hike along the many marked paths or trails to explore these beautiful locations further, or even walk beside the dramatic Atlantic coastline, I can also plan drop-off and pick-up points into your tour or even put my walking boots on and explore the wonderful scenery with you. - City & Guilds of London Photography - Failte Ireland Wild Atlantic Way Champion During my tours I have no restrictions.

- Leaving Dingle Town, we follow the Slea Head Drive to the amazing viewpoint at Slea Head. Here we have an opportunity to stroll along the road as it twists and turns high above the crashing waves below, providing us with more gorgeous vistas and photos of this astounding area of natural beauty. - At Coumeenoole Strand we may walk on the golden sands at low tide or along the scenic pathway that takes us down to the beach, experiencing the breaking surf and revealing amazing views of the Blasket Islands across the rugged cliffs of Dunmore Head. - We visit the iconic steep path that zig zags down the cliffs to Dunquin Pier and then take in the outstanding landscapes that can be captured from Clogher Head. - We'll also head away from the main road to visit some of my favorite photography locations dotted along this rugged coastline. - We leave the coastline with time to explore the ecclesiastical sites, standing stones and atmospheric ruins at Gallarus Oratory and Kilmalkedar Church on our way back to Dingle.
