Ade Desbrow wins Killarney Camera Club final seasonal competition
Killarney Camera Club member Ade Desbrow has secured first place in the Unrestricted Category of the club’s final competition of the season.
His winning photograph, titled ‘Submerged Flowers’, took the top spot in the Open Print Competition.
The Open Print Competition serves as a special highlight of the club calendar, encouraging members to print their photos and bring them to life. Presenting an image as a physical print offers a completely different experience from viewing a digital file on a screen, allowing the detail, texture, and craftsmanship of the printed photograph to create a new appreciation of the work.
Shronedraugh songwriter Gersemi Witch is set to release her second single, titled ‘The Hawthorn and the Hearth’, on Friday, July 17.
Living in the shadow of the Paps of Anu, the local artist draws her musical inspiration directly from the Kerry landscape, regional folklore, and ancestral traditions. Her work blends contemporary songwriting with themes of local mythology, belonging, and connection to place.
The upcoming release, put out under her own label Gersemi Wearth Witch Records, is described as an atmospheric Irish neo-folk ballad. The track is inspired by the traditional symbolism of the hawthorn tree and the hearthfire, exploring how modern music can connect with ancient land and traditions.
The new single follows her previous release, ‘Beyond Knee-Bent Pews’, which is currently available to stream.
