Gimme Shelter


My other shelter is also a Merc - sheep on Achill Island, Co. Mayo dodge the driving rain this afternoon.


It rained for every minute of the day today, and the plan to leave early for Achill Island this morning didn't mean that there was a couple of hours of decent light in the morning - it just meant that I got wet earlier.


Camera = Canon 5D , lens = Canon 100-400mm@260mm, ISO=500, aperture=f7.1, speed=1/500sec.

It was so bad that it was a bit of an ordeal even rolling down the car window to get the shot.

Ballina on a wet weekend? a fate worse than death...
