The beach at Bearna.
I got lost and found myself at a beatiful, isolated spot on the coast near Casla.
The view out to sea.
Limpets.
Rock pools.
Fighting shrimp.
Beautiful clouds.

Balanced stones.
Dry stone wall, cairns, and the very craggy moonscape of Inis Meáin.
Inside an old fortress on the island.
There are a number of white stripes in the rock that makes up the beach.
Inis Meáin's desolate coast.
Nice ass.
Killary Harbour, Ireland's only fjord.
The northern slopes of the fjord.

The Atlantic is beautifully blue, especially here near the entrance of the fjord.
Strange striated land on the north bank of Killary Harbour.
Tower at Auchnanure Castle.
Castle wall.
I lay down inside one of the towers and took this photo straight up.
