One might think that so many sunset opportunities would become 'ho hum'. Not so! Each beach presents its own 'personality' and the change each day of lighting makes it exciting. This evening we headed out for our last sunset shot with Daragh and our newly formed 'family'. We left early so we could stop several times along the way.
But first, we had the fun of shooting yet another old structure. There are so many of these in the area and I often wondered who lived here, and what was their life like? One thing they had was a great view!
I think, but am not sure, that this is the Dún Chaoin Pier. If you wish to shoot this scene for a calendar competition, arrive in better light and arrange for a local sheep herder to move his sheep down the walkway!!
Here is an opportunity for Ann and Greg H. to combine their love of hiking with Greg's interest in photography and Ann's growing interest in photography. No losers on this option.
We thought Tom was lost. Nope. Just out getting a shot that the rest of us would not get!
As the gold sets in. The three ridges on the left are called Three Sisters.
For a while I could not shoot. All I wanted to do was sit and watch and whisper, "Oh WOW!" under my breath. When a wave like that hit the rocks my heart would pound hard and I felt privileged to be a witness to the power of nature.
Our group was quiet as we returned to the hotel for dinner. Perhaps we were in an appropriate state of reverence, or perhaps we were just tired and overwhelmed. For sure there was a bit of sadness realizing that our trip was almost over. One more shoot left, a sunrise over Connor Pass in the morning.
