Already over 3500 photographs, mostly colour, have been uploaded. And that's just for starters! Currently around 1000 of these relate to the events and personalities involved in the N Ireland Troubles.

Just click on photoshelter.com and it will take you to my online archive.

If you wish to limit your viewing to images relating to the N Ireland Troubles click here!  This gallery includes fairly comprehensive coverage of the N Ireland Troubles and most of the principal personalities involved.  It includes Pacemaker Press images up to the end of September 1977 when I relinquished my sole ownership of the agency. 

Sign up to a FREE subscription at Photoshelter and you can download low-res images at any time!  If you are likely to require images urgently, i.e. for Press or TV use, Photoshelter can be configured with your own unique password to allow you to download full resolution images at any time. These are NOT visibly watermarked. The site log maintains records  of who has downloaded what images and when. Downloading is very straight-forward but if you experience any difficulty I will be happy to talk you through the process. Please remember I am on UK/Ireland time!

When searching for an image use keywords i.e. explosion york street belfast. If you don't find what you are looking for widen the search by removing  or replacing one or more keywords. Carefully chosen keywords will usually help you find a selection of images in just seconds, just like Google. A cost only occurs on usage. Where possible try to negotiate a licence fee before publication. Phone or email me details of intended use and I will respond promptly. 

My archive also includes thousands of portraits of N. Ireland, Rep. of Ireland and British political personalities, broadcasters, authors, clerics, business people, rugby players, footballers, golfers, snooker players, diplomats, civil servants, academics, etc, along with thousands of images of Irish, British, European and American locations.

IMPORTANT: Each week more images are added. At the moment the archive is only a fraction of what it will be in 6 months or a year's time. If you can't find what you are looking for phone or email your requirements. If I can't help I will do my best to put you in touch with someone who can.
