the end of the world Photo

Photographer’s Note

Today I am starting to post pictures taken in Ireland during my last trip. One of the most interesting destinations was a tour around Dingle Peninsula on the southwestern coast of Ireland ,I really wanted to see ( And shoot ) views of this rugged coastline. I also wanted some big waves coming from the ocean, and enough sunlight for good effects. I know this was a bit too much as a request because we all know how moody the weather can be in this part of the world. I toured the peninsula three times .

Merhaba,
Rugged beauty. I must say that I enjoyed the overcast weather of Ireland very much back in April. The clouds look good, and I also like the colors, esp. the greens. Regards,
Hakan

Hello again Izzet. This one I nearly went past in the gallery. I rode a bicycle around this peninsula about 30 years ago (but only once!), in the pouring rain. What a marvellous place, and a wild one. This weather looks typical of the place. Your shot is nicely lit and not too much contrast or saturation or sharpness. This allows you to represent the sky well, and the subdued light. Nice composition too from your viewpoint.
Regards,
Andrew

If this is the “end of the world”, then I would like to go there! It is really good enough for me, and as a geologist it would be a great place for a field trip. It is a very nice picture. Well done.

Izzet, my understanding of the end of the world was a quite different until now. I was imagining some wild, titanic, dark, frightening experiences but this despite beeing a rugged coastline and quite overcasted it looks great. I wish I would have the time to get to the end of the world too.
Regards, Peter

Hello Izzet, It seems to me that you didn't get the big wave, but for me this wil do. This is indeed a rugged coast! Well framed sot and excerllent management of light conditions.

Hi Izzet,

That's a very powerful image full of mystery and wonderment. Get POV and colors

Excellent composition Izzet with the coastline disappearing around the top of the frame. I love the natural colours and soft tones. TFS, Roberto

Merhaba Izzet bey,
genelde bilim kurgu filmlerinde başka gezegenlerde kullanılan muhteşem doğa. gökyüzünü biraz kızıl ve gökte bir kaç uydu ile hayal ettim burayı. muhteşem bakış açısı. hafif pus ile inanılmaz gizemli bir ortam. elelrinize sağlık. selamlar

Merhaba Izzet.

Good composition and also a very impressive landscape. This wild nature looks amazing.
Well done and thanks for sharing.

Hello Izzet! By Ireland's standards, that looks like you captured some good weather there :)

The vertical format works wonderfully here and the lower band of rocks are positioned perfectly providing the anchoring the image needs. The green on the rocks contrasts nicely with the frothy water.

Well done!
