As I mentioned in a previous post, in Irish tradition the winter has started with the beginning of the dark half of the year after Halloween.
But that doesn't mean that Ireland is not a destination for off season travel, on the contrary, with fewer crowds and some of the best light the months of November through to March are ideal for seascape photography in Ireland.
Here as well as shooting with the sun, we turned to photograph the sea cliffs with the sun setting behind.
It is a difficult photograph to shoot a landscape like this contre-jour but the movement and colour in the sky, coupled with some good post-processing has resulted in a fine image that is in contrast to shooting with the sun and its clear light (image coming soon in a subsequent post).
Making use of the texture and feeling of this deserted Irish beach at sunset.
