Dunmore east is one of my favourite places in Ireland to visit with a camera, its fishing harbour is the countries second busiest and on the day the fish is landed for the fish-market, it is full of life and colour with the boats all being in port.
The day I went down to capture these images I took my then new fuji-film X100 and took many images along the quays, the following gallery I hope captures a sense of this wonderful place to visit and take photographs.

Hi Nigel. I never have understood why harbors are so peaceful; there are the sounds, of course – birds, water, ships – and the smells. I suppose what I find the most fascinating are the shapes and lines of the ships. Excellent captures, Nigel.

Hello Scott ,
Yes that’s very true, I think it could be because Harbours take you out of your usual world and into another place, a place so full of differences it’s hard to imagine the life the people working there have.

This brings me back. My Dad worked with trawlers and many days were spent on piers in the Summer. I can smell it. Thank you. I love this post.

Makes me wish I had a fishing town close to home. I can almost smell the sea from your photos.
