Ah! The beautiful green rolling hills of Ireland. The composition is very nice, with the amount of sky gradually diminishing as you move to upper right corner. The picture would benefit from a bit of Photoshopping. Giving the sky a more vibrant color would make this picture even more moodful.

Hi Leonie,

When I saw your photo I immediately thought that looks familiar. Before looking at the location details I thought 1) its Ireland and 2) its County Kerry. I was quite pleased with myself when I was right on both counts. Your picture nicely captures the contradictory nature of the place that whilst it is pretty remote and quite desolate it is also full of life and vibrancy and tradition.

You caught a good few of the "forty shades of green" that Ireland is famed for.

Huw

Hi Léonie, I like the composition of this beautiful landscape with a line going down (or is the line going up...) and the few houses as fine details. The sky maybe, is not quite okay, but it's Ireland, isn't it ?
And therefore, a good shot !

This is one of the the photos that invites you to visit a country. The landscape is really peaceful. Maybe the sky is no so peaceful but it is a beatiful shot.

Gut gemacht !

The green, green grass of home... How Ireland looks like in the imagination of people, who had never been there, Leonie! Starting on the top with a light brown, ending on the bottom with a powerful green; well spotted. The walls form a great pattern on the grass.

There could be a bit more of blue for the sky.

Grandissima immagine!!
Di una suggestione per me incredibile, io che amo le tradizioni celtiche, credo che sia la realizzazione piu suggestiva dell'irlanda che io abbia mai visto!
Complimenti!!

Hi Leonie,
This is a nice picture, there is really much to see (lots of small details like houses, sheep, walls etc). You had choosen a very good point of view. The colours are great, but the sky is a bit white.
Happy Newyear!

Leoni, this is, to be frank, one of the most interesting pictures I have seen so far from your collection. Also, it is undoubtly one of the most interesting pics of Ireland I've seen so far. Why? Beacouse it tells you instantly what Ireland really is. It shows the landscape, the way pewople live and work. Thanks. Tom

The photo is unreal - with the white sky, the hillside appears to be floating in space. Great details, very interesting shot.

Excelent photo of marvelous landscape. It is a pity the sky is overexposed....

Ok, let me sit down and have a full sight to the greenfield down there.
Thanks for sharing.

Leonie:
When I saw the thumbnail of this photo, I thought it is mine (even though my copy is worse). In next few days, I am going to look for that file and post here for your comparison (of their similarity, not quality).

Good night!

Belle diagonale pour ce paysage d'Irelande.Le ciel est un peu clair mais la beauté tendre du vert le compense bien. Quel immense travail que d'empiler toutes ces pierres pour rendre la terre utilisable. Amitié/jr

Tout l'irlande en une seule photo... Whaou ! C'est l'impression que ce pays m'a laissé : du vert partout et des cottages !
