I left home at 4 in the morning and drove 6 hours to Ballyconneely Golf Course in Connemara, took these pictures and drove home again. It was a very worthwhile experience and my thanks to Capt. Mick Hennessy for making it possible for me to take these pictures

A hand made print of this looks absolutely stunning blown up big. I made a postcard of this shot, #70A in the Irish Lighthouse Series

Print order code JEP 39

Canvas print of JEP 39

Took all these pictures with my Canon A-1 with 28mm using Fuji Velvia 50

I made a postcard of this shot as well, #70 in the Irish Lighthouse Series. Sold out long time ago, a collector's item now along with many others of my cards

Spectacular location for a lighthouse at the entrance to Galway Bay, with the mountains of Connemara in the background
