[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Burrens once more... that's how the seaside looks there. Gloomy, rainy and misty - depressing but splendid. You don't really mind the weather - the view, the salty breeze and the space you feel, all that rewards you for the inconvenience. Is that what makes Ireland so special ???

This is what we'd call a soft day or a pet day in Ireland. A dull, damp day, perfect for curling up by an open fire. :-)

Lovely image of the beach at the Burren. The mist sets the mood for the scene. Well captured.

Wonderfull moody athmosphere Michal. The imag clearly conveys the wet and dull conditions that day. I'm a nutcase for horizons and yours seems a little off, perhaps some rotation in postprocessing? TFS!

Very good post for todays weather Michal :-) Depressing is very good word to describe it ;-) But it's also beautifull in some way. I like deep DOF, textures of surface and 'colours' ;-)

Hello Michal!
Very nice landscape.Large DOF,POV,framing and composition are perfect.Thanks for sharing.

Iv been to and Burren a couple of times Michal and it does have a unique mood and appearance. This is quite different because of the poor weather and adds to the atmosphere of the shot. I very much like it. 7/10 Very good work.
