It's not often we see by-the-wind sailors (Velella velella) washed up on Fanad beaches, but there's a few today. It's a fascinating creature, born with its 'sail' pointing one of two directions, nature's clever trick to aid distribution. They are the most beautiful blue colour.

Great to chat with Timmy Mallett this afternoon on Highland Radio . Thanks to Anne Biddie one of our listeners who tracked him down for us Fanad Lighthouse and got me the interview. Follow Timmy as he travels around #Donegal

At the end of a storm Photographs aren’t always perfect, or epic. But when you look back it brings back all the emotions you felt and experienced when taking that shot, it transports you back to that moment. That’s what I love about photography.
