WOW.

There are plenty of beautiful photos of Cork, but none of them can quite compare to these.

While most photographers stroll the streets, hoping to catch a glimpse inside a private moment or behind a secret door, Dennis Horgan does his best work at a rather higher elevation; thousands of feet up in the sky.

The aerial photographer, who has combined his love of aviation with his passion for seeking out the perfect photo op, has put some of his best work into Cork From The Air, a 200-image collection that offers an astonishing pilots view of city landmarks.

The hardback book (€25) is available here.
