Dan Linehan, President of Press Photographers Ireland CLG, said: “The work on display here at Shannon Airport is a powerful reminder of the need, not only for truthful images, but also technical skills and creativity.

These images showcase the towns, villages, events, news and people that make up the Ireland of 2025 and we’re delighted to have them showcased here in Shannon Airport.”

The Press Photographers Ireland CLG Exhibition opened today and will run until 14th September at Shannon Airport as part of its regional tour. Located in the Check In area, the exhibition is free to visit.
