The rugged landscapes in the west of Ireland make for great landscape photography.
Here, small fields of green have been created by generations of farmers clearing stones from the land.
Old cultivation ridges can be seen inside the fields where, in centuries gone by, farmers created what are known as lazy beds.
Another beautiful evening here in the west of Ireland and what an evening it was.
Any of you who joined me for a chat earlier will have seen and heard how calm the conditions were, just a few ripples on the surface of the water created interesting reflections of the passing clouds overhead.
There can be few places in Ireland as scenic as the Dingle Peninsula, Ireland's and Europe's most westerly point. And of course it sits on the Wild Atlantic Way.
It had been a while since I visited the rugged, mountain-filled land of rocks and beaches and a photography workshop with Patrick from Chicago was the obvious place to head to.
There is nothing quite like an evening at the coast on a calm evening with a colourful sky and still waters reflecting all above.
Summer has finished in Ireland although a late burst of fine weather in late September is helping to make up for what was a disappointing few months; it was summer only in name.
Summer in Ireland. It wasn't really tangible in 2015.
Most places in Ireland recorded a wetter, duller and colder summer (June, July and August) than usual.
This evening's image shows the level of water in the lake during a colourful and characterful sunset in the west of Ireland. Rainy at sunset, unlike this last sunset but with the same colours.
After a busy week I can now appreciate the crepuscles and with a rainy few days the sun finally made a brief appearance below the cloud base just before sunset in the west of Ireland.
The lower sky was illuminated with hues of orange and red while the top remained blue and evening-like both portions reflecting in the calm waters of the lake, windless and magical.
White clouds at sunset tinged pink and orange by the last rays of the setting sun in Ireland's West, blue sky behind; this is a landscape photographer's ideal.
I had made the short trek down to this lake in the west of Ireland, with very changeable conditions earlier in the evening there wasn't much to hope for in terms of landscapes but just as I arrived the skies cleared and some colour burst forth.
