Fishing by Flashlight, Killiney Beach, Co. Dublin.

After a few hours photographing the white cottage, as darkness gradually fell over Killiney Beach I came upon what initially looked like a search party. There were bright spotlights moving around the sand, flickering back and forth. As I moved closer I realised the lights were torches, attached to the heads of people who were fishing in the dark. Each one had a little tent perched further back on the strand so they could shelter and thread their lines and return to the waves to where their fishing rods nestled waiting for some unsuspecting fish to bite.



It was then that the thought occurred to me...we're all just trying to capture something...right?
