Galtee Mór. A sweaty day in the hills.

For years when I heard people talk about the the Galtee Mór I thought they were on about some kind of giant rasher, it turns out its a mountain. When I found this out I decided to go walk up it. I took my camera too because as you may have guessed I like taking pictures of things.

 

It was a great day for walking it was pretty much all blue skies and with the odd smattering of clouds, perfect weather for a sweaty walk in the hills. I hope you enjoyed the pictures let me know what you think in the comments below, thats all for now.

Peace and Love,

Ciaran.

Creature of the night, creeping around in the dark with my camera.

Check out some of the pictures that I took back in January. The first lot of pictures were taken on a cold night when there was no clouds so it was great to be able to see the stars.

Saint Peter’s Church Carrigrohane at night and some stars.

The graveyard next to Saint Peter’s church in Carrigrohane at night.

Orion’s belt and some trees and a wall, what more could you want.

 

The next bunch of picture were in the Lee Fields, just outside Cork City. Similarly to the first bunch of pictures these were taken on a cold night in January.

 

I really hope you get as much enjoyment out of looking at these pictures as I got out of taking them, well anyways that is enough rambling out of me so let me know what you think in the comments.

Peace and Love,

Ciaran.

Coimbra, the city of Hills.

These are some of the picture of Coimbra that I have taken in the last few weeks. Its a really cool city but incredibly hilly which doesn’t agree with my feeble legs. But apart from the hills it has a really nice Botanical Garden, one of the Oldest Universities in the land and some nice parks and views so all in all its not a bad place to live.

Some ducks going for an evening stroll on the Mondego River.

I really hope you enjoyed these picture, I was really happy with how they turned out but they are by no means perfect and my quest to take a perfect picture goes on. That is enough from me for now let me know what you think in the comments and feel free to share them with your pets or whom ever you think might enjoy them.

Peace and Love,

The Foxy Prophet.
