Beautiful shot. Lovely colours
Whereabouts in the Wicklow mountains is this?

This road would be my guess:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=N81&daddr=R115&hl=en&geocode=FXz_KwMdSi2d_w%3BFdTQKgMdrK-f_w&mra=ls&sll=53.182379,-6.332932&sspn=0.190518,0.506744&ie=UTF8&ll=53.176309,-6.356106&spn=0.095272,0.253372&z=13The Sally Gap. Don’t think so, too many trees.
My guess is the approach to the Wicklow Gap from the west.
Not Sally Gap, the road that leads up there from the N81. This was taken close to that place: http://www.flickr.com/photos/randomway/1031796204/in/set-72157603796120772/
But it’s still just a guess.
It’s definitely not the Wicklow Gap, I have been travelling over that route twice a week for several years now so I know it pretty well.
I’m 99% sure it’s the road that goes between the Sally Gap and Blessington and that the scattering of trees on the right is the remains of the Coronation Plantation. This is on the same road as randomway said.
Here is a link to a zoomed in version showing where I think it is:
My Dad’s car broke down there in about 1975 or so, I got a LONG look at the scenery then and it’s really quite fresh in my mind ;-)

yea looks like that road, a super area for shots in morning light…
great shot strong composition and lovely range of tones. If I was to be really fussy I would ask is it a tad soft in the foreground but with the nature of the scene I think it works fine
I thank everyone for comments, AedanC is right as for the place.
I am presenting another photographs from beautiful Wicklow mountains.2.
