Ringsend, poolbeg, sunset, Dave Walsh
My photograph (above) showing the winter sun setting behind Poolbeg Generating Station, has been chosen for the National Union of Journalists Photography Matters exhibition, opening in London, UK on May 18th 2009.
I'm very fond of this image and delighted that it's gotten recognition. - I feel it compares two forms of energy, solar and fossil fuels in a strange, futuristic, dystopian kind of way. It's part of a large project I'm working on, about Bull Island, in Dublin.

You can see the Poolbeg photograph on the Photography Matters exhibition website here ยป
