It has been quite a while since last post, but after moving to a new country and now settling with a new job, it’s time to start wandering length and breadth through the beautiful Ireland, looking for the best photographic spots and collecting as many tips and suggestions as possible to share with you, along with the usual pictures of course!
Let’s start with an image that summarize some of the most distinguishing features of Ireland’s nature: its emerald green land, deep blue sky and wild scenarios.
Location: Derrylea Lough in the Galway County, West Ireland.
What to shoot: The magic of Irish landscapes, changing continuously along with the light, the fast moving clouds, sending fleeting shadows and reflexes on the grass fields and lakes below.
Ideal time to shoot: All day long. The constantly changing sky will provide countless different conditions of light.
Gear: Wide angle lenses to standard zooms.
How to get there: By car. Take the N59 from Galway to Clifden and Connemara National Park. A parking area is easily accessible next to the lake.
Coordinates: 53°28′59″N 9°57′05″W
WPC: Connected.
Gorgeous! Tree
Love, love the vibrant colors. I logged in to simply check something on my account and noticed this beautiful photograph. Very nice capture!
Beautiful. I’m into photography but I never know where to start or what’s good enough to photograph. How do you motivate yourself?

I’ll be sad to lose Venice – but I’ll be gaining Ireland and a very different landscape and palette, with your magnificent eye.
Than you so much!! I miss Venice a bit, but Irish landscapes and light are really breathtaking! 🙂
Well, that’s an excellent way to restart blogging. Just beautiful! Although I lived in Wales for 18 years, we never ventured into Ireland. Big mistake by the looks of it 🙁
Ireland is definitely worth a visit! 🙂
I have it on my bucket list! Thank you for sharing your visit 😊
You are so fortunate Ireland is full of glorious landscapes. You will be spoilt for choice.
Hi Andrew, you are perfectly right! I really feel spoiled here! We are almost neighbors now! 😉
Tante novità, Bruno! In bocca al lupo. 😉
Grazie Stefano! Sogno di fare qualcuno dei tuoi viaggi ma per ora mi “accontento” di girare in lungo e in largo per l’Irlanda! 😉
It looks calming, beautiful and vibrant.
