Lough-na-Cranagh - Fairhead Photo

Photographer’s Note

This is Lough-na-Cranagh, a clifftop lake located on Fair Head, North Antrim coast. Its so named because of a 'crannog' in the centre, a man small made island. They were used as a defensive dwelling in the past and the one here is supposed to be about 1000 years old. I haven't included it in this picture as it didn't suit the framing.

The picture was taken just after sunset using a 0.9 ND grad to stop the sky from blowing out.

Thanks for looking!

Hello Douglas,

A beautiful spot, excellent framing and exposure, and a captivating frame as a result. I really like the lightness of the sky, milkiness of the water and the hues throughout.
Congratulations.

Regards, Peter.
