The Gold Rush

A little jaunt of photos around a bit of South West Ireland. Mainly in the rain and mist and wind. (Severe gale 9 on the BBC shipping forecast - longwave 198kHz - what a great institution! Not only for those at sea, but when you're clinging to the edge of land as well).
The title of this entry has nothing to do with the area, but I couldn't think of a better one.
(Except Way Out West, but that's Laurel and Hardy who we've had twice already if I remember right).

A Little Irish Lane

On the seafront in Waterville. No matter what I tried with camera and computer, this would only come out in black and white.
Silent as well -

Somewhere on the South West Ring of Kerry. Had to Blu-tac my shoes to the ground.
"... perhaps Storm 10 later...."

Hope the journey back home, via Skibbereen, Cork and over the Irish Sea, is smoother.
