We took two weeks to visit the west coast of Eire (Ireland). The scenery is breath taking and everyone is so friendly! Click on the images to see larger versions and more text describing them.
Aherlow 003 – This viewing point is a few miles south of Tipperary. The clouds pass over and behind the Galtees 
Aherlow 012. A view of the Galtees framed by the vegetation 
Quilty 066. The setting sun is golden 
Quilty 084. Our last night in Quilty produced a sunset. Here the rocks form leading lines to the sun 
WAW North 001. The people here give a sense of scale to the images of the cliffs near Lisdoonvarna. The foam speaks of the restless sea 
WAW North 017. In this part of Lisdoonvarna we see the segmentation of the different layers of rock. Some look a little like Lions paws 
WAW North 032. Fissures in the rock in this Wild Atlantic Way image from Lisdoonvarna 
Spanish Point 036. The waves drive in and church up the yellow sand as they arrive 
Doolin 041. Using an 8mm lens, this image demonstrates the size of the rocky outcrop and explores the patterns in the sky 
Doolin 073. Waterfall, foam and spray around the black cliffs at Doolin 
Kilkee 016. This peaceful natural harbour is captured in its entirety by the 8mm wide angle lens 
Killkee 017 is captured in the same burst as Kilkee 016. However the top and bottom of the image have been edited away to create this panoramic version of the image
These few images are hardly enough to convey the breath taking scenery of the West Coast of Ireland.
The Wild Atlantic Way
The tourist board in Eire have created what they call the “Wild Atlantic Way”. We travelled up and down the Wild Atlantic Way in September 2016. The coast is remarkable. There are cliffs, islands and inlets to make the most of.
