For this intrepid Irish “ruin hunter,” a picture says…
This has been in the pipeline for some time now and its finally here, my very first interview, I am really stoked about this. A number of weeks ago I was approached by fellow blogger James King about doing an interview on my work for The Displaced Nation. The Displaced Nation is a collective of like minded individuals whom share a passion for what they call the “displaced life” of global residency and travel. This also includes creative pursuits such as writing, art, food, business or even humor. Aside from being a blogger, James is also a writer and fellow photographer. It was a great honor to be asked and I found that it helped me to take time out and reflect on what I am doing.So why not stop by and check out the entire interview, by clicking on the link below. Any comments or thoughts would be greatly appreciated, I love getting feedback, so don’t be shy.

Thanks for telline me about the intwrview – I was captured by the photography but also by the stories. I have always loved history – and ruins (do the two go together?). I have wanted to visit Ireland for many years (family connection) but now you have really whetted my appetite for exploring the lesd well known side of Ireland. At least I know who to ask when I finally get my ticket 🙂 Thanks for the fabulous photography – always great.

I’m still cracking up about what your son said– “that’s where the vampires live.” What I appreciate is that you make your hobby a family affair and use it to educate your children. So many people in our generation don’t have a good appreciation of the past; we’re too busy with ourselves or being “progressive.” It’s great to know that your children will grow up understanding their heritage and why it is important to protect historical sites.

Absolutely, these days kids are too plugged into the matrix to see what else is going on in the world, besides what the media and fat cats feed them. Hopefully it will rub off on them 🙂
