Near Killarney, one of the many photogenic places to stop along the Molls Gap route that winds through the mountains from Kenmare.

The Lakes

The Lakes
Nearly a year ago on the way from Kenmare to Killarney. Don\’t get down here that often now, it\’s a bit more of a hike from Dublin than it was from Cork.

A couple taking a breather during a walk around the woods at Ross Castle in Killarney, Kerry. This was back when the weather was nicer. What is it some people call it, summer? Sounds familiar.

Part of the stack of Velvia that\’s been sitting, waiting to be scanned for months. This is my very first post of a shot taken on velvia and I\’m going to start as I mean to go on. All the velvia shots I\’m going to post will be exactly as they came out of the scanner. Which, hopefully, will be very close to exactly how they came out of the camera. The only alterations I\’m going to allow myself are crops to remove frame borders and very minor colour temp shifts where for some inexplicable reason, my scanner decides to tint the scans purple or blue.

Ross Castle Sunset

Ross Castle Sunset
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.
