Nicely taken Peter ~ a very interesting feature ~ All the best ~ Nick

Hi Nick

Thank you so much. I'd never been here before, so very interesting for me!

I was there in 1995. Nothing is changend… ***

Hi Lothar

Thank you! Glad you remembered it. Since it is a few million years old, I don't suppose it would change much in our lifetime!

Totally unmistakable basalt rocks, love the movement in the water.

Hi Steve

Thank you so much. Of course this is unique, certainly in Europe.
I'm pleased you noticed the water, I went for the longest exposure I could reasonably manage, but not so long as to smooth the water completely....
Unfortunately no dark skies for stars though...

Best wishes
Peter

My Mum's part Irish and I still haven't been there (neither North nor South).
A terrific capture, Peter!
Best wishes,

Hi Andy

WOW, such a gorgeous seascape, Peter !! The colour of the rocks is fantastic !

Thank you Marie-claire,

I think the rays of the setting sun through the clouds have some influence here!

Best wishes
Peter

Amazingly beautiful; like the warm colours.

Hi Jaap

Thank you so much. This was the end of another really hot day, which I guess was influencing the sky!

Peter

Magnificent shot Peter. I love the colours!!!

Hi Rosa,

Thank you so much. This was quite late on in the evening, as the sun had just about set.
One of many taken during my holiday there!

Hi Peter !
well : just a bit jealous you could be there to admire this fabuous, in any sense, site I have always heard of and read about . but never seen !!
I've been so many times in Eire( so beloved !!) but unfortunately never in Ulster
So: while appreciating your splendid image( point of view, perspective, contrast so gently played between the sea and the red rocks..) I thank you so much for letting me dream ...

best wishes .

Hi Bea

Thank you so much for such kind words! Your dream has made me very happy!!
Until last week I had been to Dublin and the south of Ireland many times, but this was my first visit too. I was equally impressed!

Best Wishes

My Dear Füsun

Thank you so much for your very kind and special visit. As you know I spent a long time there, and tried many different things.. I am so happy that you like the overall scene, the setting sun, the water, and the rocks. It is almost as if we were there to share it..!!

Love Peter

A lovely shot indeed Peter and what great light also ... a well chosen vantage point all in all

Best wishes ... Steve

Hi Steve

Thank you so much for your visit and kind words.. I purposely went in the evening to miss the crowds, and to try for this kind of picture. I'm so pleased that you like it!

Best wishes, and a good weekend
Peter

That is one place I would love to visit someday; excellent capture, Peter!

Hi Val

Your kind appreciation is most welcome! Thank you!
It is certainly worth a visit, but to make a proper job of the photos you need to pick your times...
I would love to see what you could manage with your great skill with the camera!

Best wishes, and a good weekend
Peter

Giant's Causeway is definitely on my bucket list. I hope I'll be able to go and see it one day...

Hi Christa ,
Your visit is much appreciated. Thank you!
I am pleased you found it interesting.
Definitely worth a visit, but you must figure out a good time of day, either very early morning or late evening, when the crowds are gone...

Best Wishes, and keep safe!!
Peter
