TRIP
On Sunday 19th November we will be going to Blanchardstown Top Kerry photographer John Cleary has a keen eye for catching day to day life in Kerry and has now produced some of his stunning images in his second book which is set to take Kerry by storm.
the first best selling book of photographs by the Tralee based photographer from his extensive archives, featured more than 500 black and white images taken in the 1970s featuring communities, groups, sporting occasions and events all over Kerry.
His new book, is a 225 page publication featuring more than 300 black and white images depicting life in Kerry back in the 1980’s.
The book will be launched in the Imperial Hotel, Denny Street, Tralee on Tuesday night 14th of November at 7.30pm by Radio Kerry presenter and journalist Deirdre Walsh.
John Cleary had been involved in photography for the past 50 years as a wedding photographer, capturing more than 2,150 happy couples on their special day, and as an established press photographer.
“Life can be a rollercoaster for many people, however for a photographer they have a unique place in Kerry sporting and cultural folklore. I have been honoured and privileged to have been part of so many happy and indeed sad occasions. I have made lifelong friends in the process and I wanted to share my love of photography and the images I snapped with the wider public,” said John.
“Naturally Tralee features prominently in my archives. It’s a pictorial history of Tralee, Kerry and its people.
Photographs to catch the eye include GAA teams, sports images, community groups, youth groups and a mixture of images from all over Kerry. This new book will bring people on an amazing photographic journey as they seek out family and friends in the hundreds of quality photographs scattered through this publication. The response to my first book was phenomenal and I expect the reaction to this book to be even better.”
