The Edge of Aghinish, Co. Mayo, Ireland
If you've seen my previous images of Aghinish, you'll know that it's largely a limestone plain barren of all but a few trees. At the edge of the plain however there is this fine grove of pines that don't suffer from a lack of soil and aren't regularly flooded. I did have to tread gingerly through the saturated ground though, and avoid copious amounts of horse shit, as the land owner normally keeps his Connemara ponies on the property. I don't *think* I had to edit any of their poop out of this image, taken on one of their trails through the pines.
