The Great Sunrise Of Glendalough Lake

Kyle — Mon, 15 Mar 2010 09:30:24 +0000

It’s 3.20am and not a mouse stirring throughout the house, beep beep, beep beep. The alarm chirps & a groggy headed ginger erupts from the bed. Landscape photographer Kyle Tunney is back!!. It’s been a long time since I’ve actually taken any scenic/landscape shots and being honest, I haven’t missed it one bit. That is, up untill I got to the top of the mountain on Sunday.

Wow I love taking landscapes!!! Getting up at three or four in the morning, Driving, Hiking, Sitting/standing, watching, waiting, wondering, dreaming, listening, meditating and then finally a CLICK. What an amazing experience!!

Lately there seems to be streaks from plane all over the sky. Loving them!

These are the cracking set of steps you have to climb in the dark. Great fun!!

If you’ve never been here before for a sunrise, it’s an amazing experience. At 5am, it’s pitch dark, you don’t know where you’re going and can hear an amazing stream while walking up. It’s not for a few hours on your way back down that you get to see it.

This shot was taken as I was waiting for the sunrise. It’s a 360 second exposure/6minute photo with a 10stop welder glass on the lens. I was the first time to use this so had nothing with me to hold it onto the lens, it got a bit sore after 5minutes trying not to move or shake while keeping it glued to the glass. Looking forward to trying more of these!!

Photographing Landscapes – Early Riser

Make the most of the day – sometime over the next two weeks try get up extra early with your camera and take a few shots (and Yes… that does imply leaving the comfort of your bed, not just staying in bed with your camera ). You’ll feel great after, I promise!!

Dublin Photo walk #2 | Photos

Kyle — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 04:02:53 +0000

This week was the second photo walk I’ve organised in Dublin and it was a great success! Thanks to everybody who turned out, it was super to see so many new faces!

With having a mix up in communication between a few cool skaters/bmx bikers, getting told off by the Luas and the Titanic scene on a barge it was quite eventful. I have a few quirky ideas for the next walk! Once I have it planned out a bit better I’ll post up a date & time.

Another great Dublin Photo Walk!

As always if you know/think of any way to improve these walks please feel free to send me an email, I’d love to hear all your ideas!!

Dublin Night Photowalk (8pm Tuesday 25th August)

Kyle — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 22:16:15 +0000

Hey Guys & Gals,
I hope everybody’s keeping well! I’ve had a bit of interest about another photowalk so I thought I’d get the ball rolling. (In Short) – This second night time photowalk will bring us from Harcourt Street, up around Portobello, along the canal as far as Lower Mount Street and then on towards Trinity/Grafton street, depending on how well we’re doing with time.

This is a great little walk with lots to shoot and plenty of different situations to try out long exposures, flash, HDR photography and much more! Here are a few of my shots from the last photowalk.

Feel free to check out some of the great photos produced from everybody that attended the last walk.
