    Some shots from Connemara today. This scene has been shot a hundred times but I wanted some of my own…

    C&C welcome :)

    When I first looked, I thought the foreground grass interfered with the scene
    a bit, but looking at the scenes without it I have changed my mind. It is a lovely
    shot and I love the calmness of it.

    Are those cables running through the trees!
    There are some places that should remain untouched by modernity.
    This is one of them.

    Beautiful images by the way!
    I think they would have been nicer without the grass but with more reflection.
    Both B&W & colour work well.

    Thanks guys :)

    Jenny, I agree, at first I preferred the B&W but the one with the grass is growing on me.

    John, yes those are cables, and yes you’re dead right they should not be there! I tried cloning them out but it was futile. Cheers for the feedback :)

    well done, for me the B&W would be framed! (after I got rid of cables)
    Where is this location?

    I agree that the B&W is the best here.

    Where do the wires run to?

    Thanks Steve.

    This is the main Clifden-Galway road but theres no major towns around this location – I imagine the pylons were erected long before there were many regulations. I think they tried to cut the corner rather than following the road, saving money by taking the shortest route? Just a guess…
