There’s now two “Car of the Week’ possibilities this week – and I’m not exactly sure which one I will award my coveted ‘Car of the Week’ first place! I like them both – and they’ll both sell fast, with professional imagery luring clients into the showrooms!

I’ve photographed the Dolmen at Loughinisland before, including around a decade ago, when I shot a wedding scene there, but when passing by from a nearby job, I couldn’t resist stopping for a quick snap or two. It was 17th January, temperature was just above freezing, and bright winter light from a low sun was casting long dark shadows and frost still on the ground, at 11am, in the shadow areas.
I took the Fujifilm X-T4 up to the dolmen with me, and three lenses, a standard zoom, a 300mm zoom and a Lensbaby.
Nestling in the countryside between Bushmills and Coleraine is this lovely church building. I photographed it on 31st December 2021 with the Fujifilm X-T4.
31st December 2021 was the warmest New Year’s Even since records began, with some parts of Northern Ireland reaching 14 degrees Celsius. That’s warm for this part of the world! People were getting out and about, and no more so that at Portstewart, on the North Coast.
Photographed on a miserable wet day in late December, the BMW i3 Electric is my last ‘Car of the Week’ of this year, photographed with the Fujifilm X-T3 on Friday 30th December 2021.
