Ballycroneen sunset – 26/02/2017

Bad weather forced postponement of our planned shoot to Fota Wildlife Park on 26th February. However, with the forecast showing a break in the weather in the late afternoon, Ballycroneen was selected as the location for a sunset shoot.

While the group have visited this location for sunrise regularly in recent years, this was our first sunset shoot at this location in a while, and 10 members of the group turned out.

With high tide at 5:30pm and sunset at 6:10pm, conditions were ideal with good colour in the sky, and the large swell left by Storm Ewan gave plenty of wave action.

Ballycroneen – 08/01/2017

On Sunday morning the 8th of Jan, the East Cork Camera Group went on its first shoot of 2017 to Ballycroneen with the intention of shooting the sunrise. Unfortunately, it was not to be because of thick fog. We were then faced with a challenge to try to get some good pictures of this beautiful location, but we will have to return some morning soon for the sunrise.

Check out the gallery of images from the shoot here. Enjoy!

Sunrise at Ballycroneen – 16/01/2016

Sunrise Ballycroneen 160116DBarry-5

While sunrise continues to hover around the ‘sensible’ time of 8.30am, we headed to Ballycroneen in the hope of catching some colour on Saturday 16/1/16.

Thankfully the -5ºC forecast missed the East Cork area and we were able to travel in safety to our destination before setting up at around 8am as the tide filled around the beach and rocks.

Cloud was thick on the horizon which prevented a dazzling sunrise but, nevertheless, some colour and shafts of light appeared for the briefest of moments which yielded some decent photographs and sent us off reasonably happy with our early morning shoot.

See some images from the shoot here. Enjoy!
