And then there’s the moment you glance out the window at sunset and the orange light falling on the orange boards and the orange cat makes everything the exact same hue, and all you have to do is grab the camera before the cat gets bored and moves away. :)
I’ve said before and will probably say again that the sunsets were the best thing about living in Longford. This is pretty high up there in my Favorite Pictures I’ve Taken list. :)
Youghal (pronounced y’all. no, really!) lighthouse in County Cork. We’d been living in Cobh (pronounced cove), which is one of the largest natural deep-water harbors in the world, and the waters there are very calm and quiet. Coming out to Youghal for a day and watching the Atlantic smash against the rocks was quite a shock after the so-quiet cove waters. The lighthouse there is no longer in commission, but it’s very, very attractive. :)
It’s not easy to get a picture of a diving sea lion when you’ve got to manually focus the heavy lens and keep an eye on a dashing little boy!
We were hoping to get a picture of the new baby rhino at the Dublin Zoo, but although I caught a 2-second glimpse of him, there was not a photo opportunity. But some of the others were helpfully hanging out looking large and rock-like. :)
