North Atlantic Skyline, despatches from the west of Ireland

Finvarra, The Burren, Co. Clare

Finvarra is the narrow point of land west of Abbey Hill in the Burren, located off the road between Kinvarra and Ballyvaghan.

The Flaggy Shore at low tide, where the Burren slides straight into Galway Bay. The man in the picture was fishing for breakfast, and had just caughta fish before I took this photo (a mackerel by the look of it).
