Sundown Achill by Paulette x
FEATURED in : / ‘The Woman Photographer’, April ‘09 / ‘Ireland’, April ‘09 / ‘Happy Haven Photography’, June ‘09 / With many thanks. Returning from my first ever vist to Keem Bay on Achill Island, County Mayo, Ireland; this herd of sheep ran to greet us, seemingly expecting food. This is the shot I took on the way back down the mountain as the light was fading and below is the one I took on the way up. We saw the farmer a little further on with bags of feed in front of his tractor on his way up so they weren’t to be disappointed. Very curious and brave they approached in roaring wind and it was all I could do to keep my camera arm still as it blew. Canon EOS 400D 18-55mm lens Canon EOS 400D 18-55mm lens.

When am I? by Philip Rogan
Lost in the city again, albeit somewhat familiar but David was not sure of what time it was, the lights were on but they were somewhat different from what he thought they should be. Who was that man in the bar? The streets were not paved but covered in a sheet of tar? it was all very confusing. A reflection of actor David Muyllaert in a Dublin City pubs window on Westmoreland Street in 2003.

The Ship Graveyard by damokeen
An old small boat tied up for the last time in a field near Clifden, not far from Galway in Connemara, Ireland. I love the decay, the broken glass, the brooding clouds (it did start to rain), the mountains in the background.

Connemara Pony by Tammy Houston
This is a beautiful white Connemara Pony. He has beautiful blue eyes that you cannot see in this photo. This pony was photographed in Moher, Co Roscommon, Ireland. Information on the history of the Connemara Pony: The Connemara region in County Galway in western Ireland, where the breed first became recognized as a distinct type, is a very harsh landscape, thus giving rise to a pony breed of hardy, strong individuals. Some believe that the Connemara developed from Scandinavian ponies that the Vikings first brought to Ireland. Another source was likely the Irish Hobby, a now-extinct breed established prior to the 13th century. Legend, however, says that galleons from the Spanish Armada ran aground in 1588, and the Andalusians on board were set loose. The Spanish horses bred with the native stock, refining the local ponies

Lahinch Beach Ireland by upthebanner
Lahinch is best described in the literal translation of its name, “Leath Inis”, or the “Half Island.” This colourful description of the village is borne out by the Atlantic to the west, the Inagh River to the north and the smaller Moy River to the south. The official name, in Irish, is Leacht Ui Chonchubhair, or O’Connor’s Cairn, erected in memory of one of the O’Connor Lords of Corcomroe who was slain by his nephews in 1471. The site of this grave is believed to be at the end of the Main Street. From pre-historic times people have lived here among the sand-hills. There are several earth-forts nearby; the finest one is on the northern side of the hill above the village on the main road to Ennistymon. Lahinch developed from having just a few cabins in the eighteenth century to having a population of over one thousand people in 1835. However, no significant development took place in the early nineteenth century as the sea front continued to take a severe battering from the Atlantic gales. Lahinch’s popularity and fame depend on two features. First and foremost is the mile-long beach of golden sand stretching along in front of the village, promenade and sandhills. With the growing popularity of sea bathing and the arrival of the West Clare Railway in 1887 people began to arrive in unprecedented numbers. The village’s secondary, but by no means lesser, claim to popularity and fame is its Golf Club. H.B.H. in the book “Holiday Haunts of the West Coast of Clare”, wrote of Lahinch in 1891 – “its strand for length, width and evenness is not to be excelled in Ireland. The accommodation is excellent, neat and respectable, and so graduated in size and arrangement as to admit of being let at prices to suit the position and circumstances of all classes.” Gertrude Crowe gives us a description of Lahinch in the “Times Weekly” of 1900 – “Lahinch, a restful picturesque spot on the west coast of Clare, retains much of its primitive old world charm. In the good times, it is celebrated for the assemblage of rank and beauty and fashion who resorted thither for bathing. An 1822 Guide mentions that the neighbouring gentry was in the habit of having warmly contested races on the strand.” In September 1920, in reprisal for the Rineen Ambush, British troops set fire to many buildings in Lahinch, including the local dance hall near the Promenade. Garland Sunday, celebrated on the last Sunday of July, was an important day in Lahinch. The main street was lined with a variety of stalls and attractions. People came from all parts of the county and there were special West Clare excursion trains from Ennis and Kilrush. The closure of the West Clare Railway in 1961 was a blow to Lahinch but it maintained its popularity. A golden sandy beach, spectacular scenery, water sports, good accommodation and varied entertainment are some of the attractions that make it an ideal holiday location. It is also an excellent base for fishing, walking, cycling and pony trekking. Lahinch today is one of Ireland’s foremost family seaside resorts.

Poulnabrone Dolmen #2 by Marsbub
/ © MCN:C76C4-7CE12-D6ABD Poulnabrone Dolmen is just 1 km North of Caherconnell Stone Fort. / The dolmen is among the most famous landmarks in the Burren. The remarkable image of the sun setting through the Dolmen is one of those most commonly associated with the area. The Dolmen is surronded by the characteristic Burren limestone pavement where a patient visitor may find examples of the famous burren flora. The dolmen itself is located a short walk from the road approximatly one hundred meters and is just 1 kilometer north of Cahreconnell. If you visit Caherconnell you will have the opportunity to learn something of the people who built this magnificent structure and to learn about the other less frequently visited but no less remarkable sites the Burren.

About This Group
The Ireland group – for those who love and for those who don’t, have visited or live in the Emerald Isle. This is the place to be where you can share your art, photographs, writing and poetry that relates to Ireland and to you.
We are looking for images that have something to do with Ireland as opposed to somewhere else. Mostly that means that they were taken in Ireland though that is not always necessary. Pictures that reflect Ireland but were taken in Australia, Europe, the States or in fact anywhere in the world are also acceptable but we will limit the amount of pix we accept taken in Irish pubs!
You may change them at any time.
