Picture of the Day - Fenit Harbour, Ireland



This shot was taken by Emz in Fenit Harbour in Southern Ireland just outside the town of Tralee. Emz and I were attending a family wedding near by and were making a long weekend of it. We were returning to where we were staying as the sky started to suddenly break into this glorious sunset. Turning from the direction of our accommodation, we headed for the harbour and got there just in time to catch the sun beams bursting over the hill. 

It was shot on a Nikon D2x with a 28-70mm on ISO 100 at f5.6 1/125th. The image fits a panoramic crop easily with a nice 50/50 reflection.

I shot the scene as well but favoured a longer Nikon 70-200mm lens. I focused in more on the boat itself with the castle ruins in the background.
