This isn't my story, this is a story about the land in County Tipperary, and the people who live here, and the people who have lived here. The stunning landscape and ruins which I have visited over the years to photograph have a residual feeling of history and people so with this in mind I have explored the Folklore collection of stories to include with my Fine Art Landscape photography with the aim of bringing our history to life, and to remember the people good and bad. The majority of the stories come from The Schools' Collection. This is a collection of Folklore compiled by school children in Ireland in the 1930's who went out into the local community and collected stories from their families and neighbours. The stories have been transcribed as written down by the school children with no corrections made to them.
This is a hardback book 30cm x 30cm of 186 photographs and 45 Folklore stories
