Next time you're out at Mizen Head you might notice this abandoned boat lying upside down by the visitor center. I almost missed it but I looked back to get a shot of the cliffs in the background. This makes a nice foreground I think.

Anyway, must have been an awful chore dragging that boat all the way up from the water. It was tiring enough pushing a buggy (and later carrying my bored baby) up from the bridge connecting the lighthouse to the mainland.

It's a beautiful location. If you're in West Cork be sure to visit!

There's something peculiarly exciting about upside-down boats... a muse which has moved me in the past. Lovely photo this. :)
