On our way out to Skye. Possibly my only shot without a tourist in it.

You\’ve already seen the \’famous\’ stairs of Charleville Castle. Here\’s the other one. Taken during the visit last year.
Making my way downstairs from yesterdays shot. There\’s something about this area of the castle that both the Bronica and the panf really, really liked.
Finally developed and scanned a couple of rolls of PanF 50 from Charleville last year. Wouldn\’t ya know it, grabbed the Bronica, stuck it on the tripod and headed straight for the stairs. Predictable or what?
April 2005. Always one of the places I\’d take the bike to for a spin in the evenings or weekends, Charlesfort and it\’s neighbour Jamesfort across the harbour are popular spots. That used to be just so I could go sit in the sunshine for a few minutes or to consume whatever I\’d bought in the shop on the way down before walking around the outside of the castle taking photos. Then it became the invaluable spot to stop with wedding parties to get the all important shots. Truly a multi-purpose location!
Reading a little bit too much into that very entertaining bonfire on the grounds of Charleville castle during the meetup a couple of weeks ago.
Back from yet another fun packed (a little too fun packed) weekend at Charleville castle. Taken with a recently made pinhole lens (i.e. a body cap with a hole in it). I\’m quite pleasantly surprised at how they came out. Wasn\’t expecting such positive results. It does prove how much I need to clean my 5D\’s sensor though…
About a year ago, a crowd went to Charleville castle in Tullamore. Most (or all) of them spent a great deal of time right here, on these stairs. No doubt it\’ll be the same this year. Or, this weekend to be more precise. This time I\’m going armed with a lot of black & white film…
Walking around the woods at Ross Castle in Killarney while the sun sets behind us. Just starting to get hungry too. Lucky there\’s loads of hotels, pubs and restaurants in the town. Lucky also that it\’s just before the tourist season. Although, there was one in the bar. How did she stand out? Why she asked for half a pint of Guinness and half a pint of Bulmers. Mixed in the same glass. A grand ol Irish cocktail.
A castle on Fountainstown beach built with the stony sand mixture, which is all that\’s available at high tide. One of the best beaches for \’beach stuff\’ (i.e. flotsam or litter), possibly only second to the strip of beaches and rocks you\’d travel if you were to walk between Fountainstown and Myrtleville beaches.
