This is the rope bridge and island at Carrick-a-Rede on the north Antrim coast. If you look at this in the large size, you can see people walking across the bridge. That was my plan too, until I pulled in to the car park and saw about a hundred cars and several coaches. There were people queuing to buy tickets.
Call me standoffish, but that scene did not appeal to me. I guess my mistake was to go there on a holiday weekend. Another time perhaps.
Instead, I drove further along the road to a viewing point and set up the camera on a tripod with a long lens. I waited a while for the sun to come out from behind the clouds and eventually got this shot along with many other closer-in shots. Maybe I will post some of them. Overall though, this was my favourite shot of that place.

For more information on this rope bridge visit here. I got the certificate that says I crossed the bridge. :)
From a description on www.northantrim.com/carrick_a_rede.htm:
"Spanning a chasm some eighty feet deep is the famous Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge. It once consisted of a single rope hand rail and widely spaced slats which the fishermen would traverse across with salmon caught off the island.
The single handrail was subsequently replaced by a two hand railed bridge, [and] the current, caged bridge was installed by the National Trust during Easter of 2000 as a further safety measure.
Although no-one was ever injured falling off the old bridge, there have been many instances of visitors being unable to face the return walk back across the bridge, resulting in them being taken off the island by boat."
Visited Carrick a Rede Rope Bridge in Ireland (see below) a couple of weeks ago. A very blustery day which found us watching the Fulmars manoeuvring in the fierce wind at the top of the cliffs. What amazing control.
Nice on Black.
