Photographer Giles Norman's latest exhibition coming to Kinsale

Giles Norman has produced a new book of images of the Irish countryside, and has an exhibition at the Kinsale Gallery at the end of September.

Giles Norman’s black and white photographs of the Irish landscape will be familiar to many. It is 25 years since he opened his first gallery in Kinsale, Co Cork, and he has released a book, Ireland — Timeless Images, to mark the occasion.

Norman moved to Kinsale at 15. In fifth year at Kinsale Vocational School, he took on the role of photographer for the class project on fishing. It would turn out to be a defining moment in his life. A gift of a camera from his parents on his 18th birthday sealed his fate.
