Outside the caster walls at Cahir | Limited Edition of 10
On an overcast day in Cahir, Ireland, I was struck by the imposing sight of the castle walls, surrounded by a moat and river, which seemed to defy the passage of time. This black and white photograph captures the awe-inspiring beauty and strength of this historic fortress, inviting the viewer to imagine the stories and battles that unfolded within its walls.
Cahir Castle, a prominent landmark in Ireland, has a storied history that dates back to the 13th century. The formidable walls, with their intricate stonework and imposing presence, stand as a testament to the architectural prowess and defensive strategies of the time. The moat and river encircling the castle serve both as a natural defense mechanism and as a reminder of the importance of waterways in medieval life.
The monochromatic tones of the photograph serve to enhance the dramatic impact of the scene, emphasizing the contrast between the castle walls and their surroundings. The composition, with its focus on the walls as the central subject, draws the viewer into the landscape, encouraging them to appreciate the architectural mastery and historical significance of the structure. The overcast sky adds a sense of depth and atmosphere to the image, further enhancing its evocative quality.

Limited Edition of 10
This photograph is released as a signed and numbered limited edition of only 10 prints in total across all available sizes combined—not 10 prints in each size.
Every size is drawn from the same edition. Whether the photograph is purchased as a small print or at the largest available size, it uses one of the 10 edition numbers.
I personally sign and number each print on the reverse, and every print is accompanied by a signed Certificate of Authenticity recording its title, dimensions, medium, edition number, and date of issue.
Once all 10 prints have been sold, the edition will be permanently closed. No additional numbered editions of the photograph will be produced in another size or format.
Premium Archival Fine Art Prints
I personally produce every photograph using archival pigment inks on premium archival paper with a subtle luster finish.
The paper provides rich tonal depth, excellent fine-detail reproduction, and a refined surface that reduces distracting glare under normal indoor lighting. It is especially well suited to both color and black-and-white photography.
Each photograph is sold as an unframed fine art print, allowing it to be framed according to the collector’s space and personal style.
Before a print leaves my studio, I carefully inspect it for color, tonal accuracy, surface quality, and overall presentation. Nothing is outsourced, and every finished print passes through my hands.
Worldwide Delivery Included
Every print is personally produced, inspected, signed, numbered, and carefully packaged by me at my studio in Haliburton, Ontario, Canada.
Worldwide delivery is included in the listed price, so there is no additional shipping charge added during checkout. I select an appropriate tracked delivery service based on the destination, print size, and current shipping requirements.
Delivery times vary by destination and may be affected by customs processing or circumstances beyond my control.
Because I also travel extensively to create new photographic work, studio dispatch may occasionally be delayed while I am away. When that happens, the print will be produced and shipped as soon as I return to the studio.
