John Hall's Homepage More>>
Through the vivid use of colour, combined with a natural ability to pre-visualise the photographic potential of everyday scenes in the rugged Irish landscape, John's photographs are both inspiring and innovative. Many of the images are achieved using long exposures (often up to 30 minutes), combined with light painting techniques using a variety of light sources in low light situations.
