Ballyreen at Sunset




this one is blurry because I was so precariously balanced above a crevasse that reached the sea in very strong winds, it was exciting.

Kilfenora

proof: there was SNOW

framing


very strange looking church

one of the 6 or so high crosses

grave with the best colored...whatever ever!

randomly seen while walking, a garage full to the brim of these bikes

ok, so the purpose of this stop was for the high crosses. I found the surroundings much more interesting than the crosses...

Burren, Co. Clare

crows above a famine house

an semi-obligatory Irish rainbow during a touristy trip

such an ordered landscape with these walls

Cliffs of Moher (numerous times) or The Weather was REALLY Weird!

I love these kinds of signs

when I first arrived, mist

a hint of sun

rain. I loved the swoop of the flat tops of the cliffs

at one end was this beautiful froth

sunset with light rays fighting the clouds

sun

and the clouds fight back

but the sun comes out full force!

only to set behind clouds

at one peak, abandoned farm equipment
