I've not put any photos up for quite a long time - these were taken last week in a very scenic area on the Atalantic Coast in Ireland - the Cliffs of Moher and then Burran. The colours are actually pretty accurate - a very grey day and rather drizzly to boot , quite a breeze too

I'm kicking myself that I didn't put my CPL on Comment Image

An accurate depiction of the place and weather conditions at the time. Good honest record shots.
I'm toying with the idea of getting a "one size fits all" lens so interested in photos taken with this type of lens. Thanks for sharing

I like my Tamron - it does make a good holiday lens , but I'm now beginning to realise about its shortcomings .

Nice to see some shots of the west coast of Ireland.
I like the 2nd best, partly because of the human interest.
Pity the weather wasn't a bit brighter.

It was chilly [ I didn't have a jacket ] it was breezy [ no tripod ] but the scenery was superb.

I turned round and spotted this - not army , but obviously gaining experience.

The rock formations are incredible there - oh for steady hands, no wind and a tripod

On my next visit .......

Nothing like parking as close as you can when your climbing a mountain!

From memory I would imagine that the landscapes do look like a very accurate record of such scenes in dull weather. They could just do with rotating clockwise a bit, to level the horizon.
