Irish Landscapes - Colour

Vivid sunrises and sunsets, autumn colours and flowered fields are perfect subject matter for colour photography.

With the wonderful light we experience on our island home, situated at the edge of the Atlantic, our landscapes can come to life in an extraordinary way. Working mostly at the start and end of the day, Mike enjoys the solitude and emptiness of our wild places while capturing the raw beauty of our amazing surroundings.

Mike Brown - The Photographer

Mike Brown - Irish Wildlife Photographer, Nature and Landscape Photographer

Mike Brown was born in Yorkshire, England in 1960 but moved with his family to the village of Courtmacsherry in West Cork in 1974. Having always had an interest in nature and the outdoors he was immediately at home in this environment.

Mike discovered photography in his mid twenties and immediately started making images of the local wildlife and landscape. In 1992 he began a full-time career as a professional photographer. While Mike has worked in many areas of photography and still covers many varied commercial assignments, his passion is still to photograph the natural world.
