Photographer’s Note
I took this photo on a stag weekend on clear island
from a small boat. About 4 mileS from the island
is Fastnet light house,it stands 160 feet high and during a storm in the late 80's it was submerged.
This lighthouse was built 1899-1903. Made of Cornish stone, it replaced the original built in 1854.
Called the Teardrop by emigrants heading west to America, it features an annual yacht race.
Fastnet light house Clear Island Co Cork Ireland.
Thanks for viewing.
