A Donegal Seascape. The first in a series of images I plan to release from my recent trip to Donegal, Ireland. The image offers a very calm, almost serene seascape taken just after dawn on the 1st morning from a wonderful golden sandy beach overlooking cliffs and open sea.
A Wicklow Panoramic | As the sun rises on a new day in the Wicklow mountains the moon begins its slow decent. The Sun was just peaking above the mountains out of frame left and that soft light was just kissing the peaks of the mountains giving them this amazing soft pink glow.
A Meath Landscape | The sun rises upon the ancient walls of The Yellow Steeple in Trim, County Meath. This 14th century tower was originally part off Trim’s Augustinian Abbey of St. Mary.
The sun slips behind a small cloud as it rises, casting a cool light upon the sea and brings a new day to Howth in Dublin in Ireland. It was just over a year ago when this image was taken, July 3rd, 2010 to be exact. I remember it so well as it was during one of the most magnificent sunrises I witnessed last year.
As I mentioned in my post last week I had an 11 hour photographic marathon a couple of saturdays ago which started with sunrise at Trim Castle in County Meath. As is often the case in Ireland the sunrise did not go exactly according to plan
On Tuesday I spoke about my weekend trip to Lough Tay in the Wicklow Mountains and today I will continue with another image from that trip. After I had finished up at the top of the mountain I began to work my way back down. Some of these valleys don’t see sunlight for more then an hour after sunrise.
As I was driving the clouds began to part and I felt my spirits lift. Once I turned of the main roads and started to head up the mountain side the temperatures began to plummet also and it wasn’t long before I was driving on frost covered roads – oh joy! I spent the time during actual sunrise down near Lough Tay and then headed up to this spot, about a 10min drive, once the sun started to crest the mountains.
Just when you thought I was finished with images from my trip to Antrim in October! I rose for Sunrise pretty much every day…
The sun is just above the horizon sending soft light upon the rocks of Greystones beach in Co. Wicklow, Ireland. Earlier in the week I published an image from a recent trip to Greystones in Co Wicklow which was a long exposure just before sunrise. I thought I would follow up today with an image of the actual sunrise.
Taking a small break from publishing images from my recent travels to bring you a little closer to home… my home that is. I…
Well I am back now and I wanted to kick the week off with one of the first images from my travels. Taken at…
The sun peaks above the mountains to throw a shaft of early morning light upon the the rain soaked cliffs that stand guard around Lough Tay in Wicklow, Ireland. A 5am rise, now that we are heading into winter I get to have a lie in for my sunrise excursions, unlike to ungodly hour of 3 a.m. during the summer months.
