" 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.

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. . .
Small and beautiful stream through the forest. Standing on a few wooden plank with the tripod and shot taken with ND16 filter.
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!
