Ballinskelligs

Ballinskelligs
A view across the beach to Ballinskellig castle. Seen on our Valentia Island/Ring of Kerry tour.

Ballinskelligs Castle is more commonly known as McCarthy Mór Castle. It is in fact a Tower House and was built in the 16th century by McCarthy Mór. It is thought that it's purpose was twofold. Firstly to protect the bay from pirates and also from which to charge a tariff on incoming trade ships. www.theringofkerry.com/ballinskelligs-castle

Enjoy.

A smashing shot Herb.............I love the wide expanse of beach and sea in the foreground and the curve of the water's edge brings the eye towards the Castle nicely!

Beautifully diffused light too and I like the small delicate-looking clouds above the mountains.

Hi Keith, as you would, with a scene like this, I took loads of shots, some close, some far. I enjoyed the feeling of emptiness with this one and like you the natural curve taking our eye to the castle. Glad you enjoyed it.

Another of my captures to please you here. Ireland was full of empty beaches like this, dotted with historical buildings too. Glad you liked the walk.
