Achill Island





Here is the view I was talking about from the top of Mweelin in the Menawn Cliffs post.
From the top of the mountain you have a 360 degree view. The image about is looking west. You can see Slievemore Mt. on the right, Trawmore Beach, Keel on the left and in the background is Croghaun Mt. If you have being watching RTE 1 tonight on Irish television you would have seen a piece on Achill Island on the travel programe. Rain, sun or wind this place is wonderful.

  12. Using a red filter in b&w photography turns the blue sky dark. The darker the blue it turns to black and shades of black.
