A Wicklow Landscape | Morning Light Upon the Hillside – Co. Wicklow, Ireland
So this week has been all about Lough Tay and the surrounding area and it continues with today’s post. I kicked this series off on Monday with an image entitled The Fence and the Field. In that post I mentioned that it was one of two images I captured in that location. Today I present…
A Wicklow Landscape | Early Morning upon Lough Tay – Co Wicklow, Ireland
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.

Wild Berries

A Cavan Landscape | The Abandoned Boat – Skeagh Lake, Co. Cavan, Ireland
Taken at 8am just as the sun was rising on a very frosty morning on Skeagh in Bailieborough, Co Cavan. It was such a peaceful start to the day and everything was covered in the lightest of frosts when I arrived to the lake.
