The last post from 2016, and almost the last shot I took this year. A few days after Christmas, we took a drive to the Giant’s Causeway in Co. Antrim, one of the most famous locations in Ireland, and were lucky enough to get some nice colour in the sky as the sun went down. I took many photos but haven’t got round to processing them yet. I’ll do a full post at some stage, but this was one of my favourite images from the day so it went to the top of the queue for editing.
Hope everyone has a happy New Year!
It is a lovely image. If you had not said what it was, it could have been mistaken for low mist in valley bottoms with the peaks of mountains standing proud.
Thank you for sharing your walks, adventures, and photographs in 2016.
Happy New Year.
Thanks Jessica. That misty look is a nice effect from the long exposure blurring the moving water, and it does look just like fog. Have a great new year.
Beautiful shot Aidy, great colours and I like the moody mist. Happy New Year, looking forward to seeing more in 2017.
Thanks Martin. Have a great new year, and keep the posts coming! Did you know mountainviews are looking for articles for their annual pdf magazine on members’ walks of the year etc? It would be right up your alley with both photos and writing.
I did indeed see that, a great opportunity. Just not sure what exactly I’d choose to write about, we may start thinking!
I’ll keep my eyes open for it anyway. What’s your mv username? I’ll probably do something on the Bluestacks myself.
I’m dr_banuska on MV (don’t ask lol). A Bluestacks piece sounds good, would like to visit them more myself.
I definitely recognise that name, probably from summit comments. I’ve probably used your descriptions to guide me up a few mountains!
Yeah I used to post a lot of rambling comments on obscure hills! I think I messaged you about one of your comments once, remember seeing you had a blog but I wasnt on WP myself then.
I do remember that now! I have been caught out by not noticing I had messages on MV for ages after they were sent – hope I replied to any you sent! Almost certain I followed some of your route descriptions, particularly on small hills – I’ve found they are far more awkward to access.
Same here, I think someone asked me a question once and I only saw it weeks later after they did the hike! Pretty sure you got back to me ok so not to worry lol. Glad to hear someone read those comments, it’s definitely a great site for planning routes.
All the best for the new year.
Thanks for always brightening 2016.
Thank you Jay. Have a great new year, and keep the content coming!
