The Red Bridge at Fota

A scarlet-railed bridge, a limestone arch, and a pond almost still enough to hand you a second bridge for free. I caught this one at Fota Wildlife Park, framed through a gap in the spring foliage, the fresh greens crowding in from both sides. The contrast is what pulls me in. Those b...

The Red Bridge at Fota

A scarlet-railed bridge, a limestone arch, and a pond almost still enough to hand you a second bridge for free. I caught this one at Fota Wildlife Park, framed through a gap in the spring foliage, the fresh greens crowding in from both sides. The contrast is what pulls me in. Those bold red posts and rails against the cool grey stonework and the soft greens all around, with the whole thing folded neatly into its own reflection on the water.

The Patient Watchers of Fota Wildlife Park

Two herons, two very different moods. The first one had clambered up into the bare branches like it owned the place, scruffy chest plumes blowing about and that sharp yellow eye scanning the park below.

An Emerald at Fota

This handsome iguana was lounging on a branch in the hothouse at Fota Wildlife Park this morning. He didn't seem bothered by the passing crowds: kids, parents and inquisitive photographers with the wrong lenses. A bit of cropping and I had the frame I wanted. That red-rimmed stare never left me though, watching from the log, belying the relaxed sprawl.
