North Atlantic Skyline - - Photographs from the west of Ireland (Galway, Mayo, Clare, Limerick, Roscommon and even Leitrim)

Well, that's that, then

Moon over Galway Bay, at Blackrock diving board, Salthill.

The year is beginning to draw to a close, marked this evening by the passing of the autumn equinox. It rained for much of the day but the sunset was clear and beautiful, giving way to a clear sky full of stars and a bright moon.

I took this picture at 8.30 this evening, about an hour after sunset at the diving board at the end of Salthill Promenade. There were very few people along the prom given that it was such a nice evening. Apparently, there was a sporting event on around the same time. I think I made the right choice.

Camera=Canon 5D, lens = 24-105@24, ISO=200, aperture=f9, speed= 30sec, exp =-1, tripod.
