Derelict Crosshaven
Crosshaven is such a lovely town. I love to visit there, walking along the water front. The sounds of the wind blowing through the boat yard and the clinking of ropes and tackle hitting off masts is ever present.

The Round Tower in Ardmore
The round tower in the cemetery in Ardmore is really impressive, standing out on the hillside overlooking the town. The tower was built in the 12th century but it has been kept in great condition. Lots more to learn about it on this page. Aperture ƒ/8 Camera ILCE-7M3 Focal length 16mm ISO 100 Shutter speed…

Morning Light on Blarney Castle
This morning is a beautiful start to the week. Fog in the distance and the fiery orange ball of the sun shining through clear skies. Blarney Castle was lit up in a lovely orange glow and I had to spend a few minutes away from the busy bustle of life to get this photo. Aperture…
