Carrigdrohid on the Lee

The castle at Carrigdrohid, as seen from across the river from my previous photo of the castle a few days ago.

I was almost in the river taking this shot, following in the steps of Mark Gorman who waded in further and made a superb shot of the castle.

Sunset at Carrigadrohid

The castle at Carrigadrohid stands on a rock in the middle of the River Lee, adjoining a bridge, giving the local village it’s name, after the Irish, Carraig an Droichid, meaning ‘rock of the bridge’. (Wikipedia)

I’d never been before, but I went with Blarney Photography Club to photograph this scenic location last night. Luckily, I caught the last of the setting sun behind the castle.
