Dingle Peninsula, Kerry, Ireland.




If there is a place more magical than others in Ireland, it has to be county Kerry.
So I decided to spend 4 days on the other side of the island investigating new places in 
the Dingle peninsula
  with the help of Paul,Garvin a gentlemen farmer also bus driver. Philip and Sandra Fitzgibbons owner of the "Harbour house" in the Maharees peninsula took me for a ride to the Hog islands, but first of all, the locals; they are always keen to talk about their land
after dark in the pubs!


Hog Island. By boat only!


Dunquin Pier. Famous in " Ryan's daughter"

Castle Minard at sunset and wit a light fog. Paul took me there as it was late and have no idea of the existence of such place.

Before taking Philip's powerboat to the Hog islands, a view of the Fahamore harbour.

One of the beach used by David Lean in his film "Ryan's daughter" in Dunquin.

Another beach at Bally Ferriter.

The same beach. It was at the start of October, in the morning then a young mother left her young son to her parents and jump into the sea, in bikini!

We were driving through Castle Gregory and a pack of those animals came on the same road.

Tralee bay.

The Lake Caum, near Castle Gregory.

A beach near Dunquin.

A view from the Conor pass, the highest in Ireland to go down to Brandon bay.

Inch beach at sunset, when we arrived. We spent a lovely night in the Inch cottages, on the hillside.


3 views of Inch beach.

The fog filled the Dingle bay between the peninsula and the "Ring of Kerry"

  3. I JUST HAD TO MAKE A COMMENT ON YOUR PHOTOGRAPHS. ONE WORD DESCRIBE MOST OF THEM, THAT WORD IS ( ATMOSPHERIC )
    I THINK YOU SHOULD SHOW YOUR PICTURES TO BOOK EDITORS AS I BELIEVE YOUR PICTURES CAN TELL A STORY AND WOULD MAKE A FANTASTIC BOOK COVER.
    I WOULD BE PROUD TO HAVE YOUR PICTURES ON DISPLAY ON MY WALL. TAKE CARE GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR NEW LIFE EXPERIENCE.
