The character and essence of the Galway Races

In a recent visit home to Ireland, I spent a few hours at the Galway Races (horse racing). I’m not what one would consider to be the ‘horsey-type’, but love the spectacle of the festival and the people watching. Check out my visual translation of the event.

About Colin McGuire You know that friend who always has a camera in his hand and can’t stop taking pictures? Well, that’s me! For myself I really enjoy shooting street portraits and streetscapes. And for my clients I just love creating beautiful, captivating moments, full of authentic mood and emotion. I’m based in the Midwest but I shoot all over the US and world. I’m comfortable with productions of all sizes from available-light environmental portraits to full on largescale lifestyle shoots. When I’m not taking pictures I love racing fast cars, listening to loud music, watching sci-fi movies and making bad jokes. But usually I’m taking pictures. Ready for a photo adventure? Let’s chat!
