About
One of the original fishing huts of Connemara that I first photographed some years ago but I was never happy with the results, due to the presence of electricity power lines and pylons in the background.
I always thought I might get lucky to come back here in dense fog to photograph it and block them out but never imagined photographing it in a full force snow blizzard and almost white out !
On my trip through Connemara in February 2023 I encountered all kinds weather and this was the perfect morning to finally make an image here that I’ve wanted to for some time. I am almost complete my now four year project photographing the little fishing huts around south Connemara which all originally formed part of the Ballinahinch Castle estate, owned by the Berridge family until early last century. The little huts, or ‘Bothainín’ as they would be called in Irish were primarily used for the gamekeepers to ward off poachers helping themselves to the sea trout and salmon.
This particular one and a couple of others in my collection now sit on the Screebe House estate which was originally built as a fishing lodge for the Berridges, one of four built in the area.
Framed Prints
Our framed prints come in two styles. Our traditional box frame in off-white features a lovely deep wooden bevel mount giving a real sense of depth to the piece and we use anti-reflective UV 70% glass on all pieces.
The majority of the work in the gallery can be seen in our new Tray Frames using the same high quality fine art paper for printing with a special laminate coating for protection, with the mounted piece floating in the frame with a shadow gap all around. There are 6 different frame colours to choose from.
Shipping & Returns
We ship worldwide with tracking details provided and express courier service available on some products. In addition, we offer a no-quibble guarantee to replace any item that may, in some rare cases, arrive in a less-than-perfect condition.
Postage & Packaging
We work hard to keep our shipping rates low and the quality of our packaging very high and over the years have fine-tuned our packaging and posting service to get your piece to you quickly and in perfect condition.
Unframed prints
One of the best ways to upgrade your walls with one of our pieces to suit your old style is to choose an unframed print and select the frame style yourself. We price our unframed prints reasonably to give you a generous allowance towards the cost of framing your print to the same standard you will find in the gallery.
