    All that is missing is a herd of Wildebeast :) Just goes to show
    how dry it has been here, I can see water rationing ahead!

    I saw some of these in the other thread and assumed it was Spain somewhere.
    It’s a bit scary to hear it’s Wicklow.

    As a landscape it breaks too many rules: no sign of digital manipulation;
    no woolly water; no ultra-wide lens; no clouds; vinaigrette; dubious foreground
    interest; pseudo-horizon at halfway height. Have ye learnt nuttin’?

    Still quite an attractive shot for all your errors.

    Thanks Jenny, Pete-

    Yes, a lot of straw- was quite surprised to see it myself-
    and yes, of course I’ve heard of wildebeest…

    Thanks for the litany Pete-
    usually, with that many errors, you’re guaranteed loads of responses around here-
    There’s probably even a tilted pseudo horizon in there…

    I’ve been away too long, looks like the weather is much better now back home.
    Very nice shot, maybe a tad more sky would have tidied it a bit, I think.

    The lens blur comes across as heat haze which add nicely to the atmosphere.

    Thanks Martin-
    Hope I’m not giving a false impression there…

    Don’t want to be picky, but that’s not a sky,
    that’s over the hills, and far away-

    Not obvious at all in that one, I know, but there’s this (slightly less saturated) one-

    Hi Joseph,

    I find this is an interesting photograph.
    I don’t think I would have guessed it’s location had you
    not suggested it in the title.
    Reminded me, for some reason, of pictures I might have
    looked at many years ago in my grandfathers National
    Geographic.

    I know Martin suggested more “sky” but I kinda liked it too
    with no “sky”.

    I like it.
    It has an unusual, for me anyway, quality to it.

    Cheers.

    John.

    Nice images Joseph!

    they do look lo-fi though, dark and blurry edges.

    the rendering seems quite good in the middle
    for a ‘long tele’ all the same.

    Nice one Joseph.
