Photographer's Note
Just around the corner from Glengarriff, small town in County Cork, there is Bamboo Park. It is worth a walk even when the weather is not inviting (see picture).
From the Park itself you can stroll along the coastline of Bantry Bay.
The micro-climate in this area is very special so that sub-tropical plants can be easily cultivated here.
Therefore plenty of small botanical gardens. The most famous is to be found on Ilnacullin Island (ferries from Glangarriff town).

Hi Mariusz,
Very good composition, the sharpness and the way you placed the elements in the composition are excellent to give a great depth of field.
I recently heard about this micro-climate in Ireland, which was a pleasant surprise for me and I learned it here on TE - it is fulfilling its requirements.
Thanks for sharing,

Hej Mariusz,
Przede wszystkim doskonała kompozycja.
Także kolorki jak z reklamy
Żeby nie to coś żółte na pierwszym planie to bym pomyślał że Chorwacja... :)
Pozdrawiam!

Hi Mariusz
This area is not what one thinks of when the word bamboo is mentioned. I like the high horizon with less sky and plenty of FG interest. Nicely done.

Hi Mariusz
Stunning view!
Excellent clarity. I like how I can see all the colourful algae on the rocks.
I am glad you kept the sky to a minimum. Much more to see this way with the boats and vegetation.
Take care,
Tosca

Hi Mariusz,
A really intruiging title for an Irish shot, and another beautiful Irish photo. Capturing the colours and the mood of the South of Ireland, well done.
