Morning mist softens the horizon at Kilfarrasy Cove on Waterford’s Copper Coast.

the Photograph

At Kilfarrasy Cove on Waterford’s Copper Coast, a low bank of sea mist moves slowly across the water, partially obscuring Burke’s Island offshore. The landforms appear reduced to simple silhouettes, suspended between sea and sky as the morning light settles.

Colour is muted and restrained. Pale blues and greys dominate the frame, with subtle warmth held high in the cloud layer. The long exposure smooths the surface of the sea, dissolving surface detail and allowing the island shapes to emerge quietly rather than assert themselves.

In print, the separation between mist, water, and distant land becomes more nuanced. Fine tonal transitions within the fog and sky reveal themselves gradually, reinforcing the sense of distance and transience that defines this stretch of coast.

the Print

Printing is treated not as a final step, but as a continuation of the work, refining tone, balance, and texture until the print feels true to the original experience. Each photograph is produced as a signed Fine Art Giclée print, carefully inspected by me before it leaves my studio.

Prints are offered in five sizes, Companion, Artist, Studio, Gallery, and Master. The range is intentionally limited, allowing the image to be experienced at a scale that feels right, from an intimate print to a larger piece with stronger presence.

Smaller editions are printed by me personally, while larger works are produced in close collaboration with a trusted fine art printer in Ireland. All prints are made using archival papers from Hahnemühle and Canson, combined with genuine Epson pigment inks, chosen for their tonal subtlety and long-term permanence. Every print is backed by my satisfaction, replacement, and lifetime fade-free guarantees. Find out more about my printing process here.
