Kells Bay Garden Autumn Photography

Kells Bay Garden is located between Glenbeigh and Cahersiveen on the Ring of Kerry. The garden offers endless opportunities for photos. There is a fantastic variety of plants, trees and flowers and foilage. The garden has a stream and a waterfall. The highest palm tree in Ireland is located there too. This is a selection of photos I took recently.
I´m doing a photography workshop early November. If you are interested please get in contact with Tech Amergin Waterville.

Over the Water, Blow Hole

Pink rocks, high cliffs, a sea stag, the blow hole, you have it all in this fantastic location and all for yourself as there is no road close by or car park. The wgentle walk along the coast gets you in the right mood and when you arrive you are just amazed by the size of this place. The extra bonus point was a minke whale on his way to Kells and a fantastic sunset over Great Blasket. When you go there, be careful near the sea and mind your steps.
