While ice can be very dangerous, the trees were beautiful. Black and white against the sky was hard to pass up!

Topsail never disappoints with the eye candy. The light rays mixed with the soft looking clouds was tough to pass up!

This is from the same day as the last shot. The starkness of black and white really make this image.

As mentioned before, Giant’s Causeway was truly enchanting and really a photographer’s playground. I could have spent all day there taking pictures.

Towards the end of our trip we stopped off at the Ring of Kerry in Ireland. This is the epitome Ireland. Blue clouded sky casting dapple shadows over green farmland flowing into the ocean. Definitely one of the best views.

Skellig Micheal was truly an epic place. Though super rocky and out in the middle of the ocean, it still had so much beauty. Everywhere you look were these flowers that clung to the rock faces.

Every time I think of the Giant’s Causeway, I still find it amazing that these shapes were created by nature.
