The following photos were taken on a recent trip to the Blasket Islands. Here, I am showing the shots taken when leaving Dingle Harbour before reaching the islands. Island photos to follow later.
The wash from the boat made interesting patterns in the morning light. The town of Dingle sits on the shoreline.
The above small tower is known as Hussey’s Folly. Built in the late 1840s during the years of the famine, for the purpose of providing famine relief employment.

The cliffs around this coast have beautiful and colourful rock formations.
The tower above is Eask Tower, pointing the way into Dingle Harbour, the building of which also provided famine relief employment in the 1840s .

Fantastic reflections. You can tell it is a Northern country from the light. There is always a tone of yellow down here near the tropics.

Thanks Kerry. Yes each zone has its own light character and I find the type of camera also has an effect on the hue.

That is so true. My husband’s Canon has a much warmer hue than my Sony Cybershot.
