"Best Pictorial Image 2005"

Samhlaiocht is delighted to have the brilliant photographer Mike Brown from Clonakilty in West Cork here in Tralee this Easter to present a workshop for all enthusiastic photographers. The workshop takes place on Easter Saturday from 12.00 to 2.00pm at the Samhlaiocht Gallery, Lower Castle St.

Having only taken up photography in his twenties and, without any formal training, Mike now has his own premises in Clonakilty from where he sells his wonderful images of Irish wildlife.

He has published two successful books, "Ireland's Wildlife" and, most recently, "Images of Irish Nature". This latter contains a foreword by legendary Irish wildlife expert Eamonn de Buitlear as well as essays by many prominent nature specialists.

Mike also featured in the RTE nature series "Wild Trials", in which Irish personalities had to travel to the remotest corners of Ireland and track down and photograph an elusive wild Irish animal.

At his workshop this Easter Mike will present a slide show of his work and discuss different techniques and tips. Serious photographers will be welcome.
