I left home at 4 in the morning and drove 6 hours to Ballyconneely Golf Course in Connemara, took these pictures and drove home again. It was a very worthwhile experience and my thanks to Capt. Mick Hennessy for making it possible for me to take these pictures |

Spectacular location for a lighthouse at the entrance to Galway Bay, with the mountains of Connemara in the background |
