" And I shall have some peace there, For peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veil of morn, To where the cricket sings,
Where midnights all a glimmer, And noon a purple glow,
And evenings filled with linnets wings "
{William Butler Yeats}
This stream comes from a spring that cascades out from under a boulder high up on the ridge in the distance. It plays it own special music as it tumbles down the mountain where it joins many other such streams, eventually forming the great Vartry river which enters the port of Wicklow 20 miles to the south east.
The lone Mountain Ash stands and watches its passing as it has done for so many years.
A wild and a beautiful place.

I took this photo from a small bridge over the stream but without a tripod because I never carry one. Of the three photos I took, this one gave me the idea of cropping it for an abstract photo because the water formed interesting shapes. I just saw this when uploaded the photos to my pc. See photo below! 👇
Still most of the leaves are green or turning brown from lack of rain. I hope everything changes during the next few days.
👉Thanks for your visit and taking the time to comment, so I can visit you, too...much appreciated!
We have been hiking in to some pretty awesome water falls this past couple of weeks. This one was only a 2 mile round trip hike. WHY have we not known about this before!!!??? It was so gorgeous. I am sure I will be posting some of the other angles of it. Playing with a new filter, so not that great of white water, but I am getting the hang of it.
This Blue Heron lives at Fassnight Park, about a five-minute walk from our home, and has become so used to us stalking him that occasionally he seems to pause for the camera to accomodate us before continuing his search for crawdads and minnows. . .
Downstream from RMNP, near Lyons, CO. The formations remind me of Franconia Notch State Park, in NH.
No leaves yet, and snow lingers higher up. The Provo River near Midway, Utah. Rich with life, and fat Brown Trout.
Hope you like this l/e. A lovely peaceful place.
This is only 1km from my house in a beautiful ancient wood. Its very quiet and very few people go to this part of it. A great place to practice long exposure photos or lose yourself.
Thanks for all your kind words and favourites.
Hope you like it.
Keep Well!

Im just amazed how this pic has taken off. I wasnt sure if it was good enough but thats always me as its impossble to judge your own photos really. Im struggling now to catch up with all of you but bear with me as Ill get to you!!
For your info. I used a 6 stop variable nd filter. Took the photo at F7.1 in app prio. Shutter speed came up at one eight of a second. Going up 6 stops gave me 8 seconds shutter speed. Put the camera in Shutter prio at 8 secs.Switched to manual focus. Screwed on filter and took the photo.Its not bad though there is a bit of a colour cast but I like that. Should have covered the lens better.
Heres a great vid from "the man" Graham Haughton. Super!

This stream links a lake to the ocean. This stream is not always open to the ocean but has been open for quite a while due to heavy rains this year. This photo taken from the north side and I had a long walk to get to this point. It was low tide and the ocean was actually flowing back into the lake. The Back Lake at Merimbula on the Far South Coast of NSW.
