Springtime in Ireland - some pictures

Hi everyone, well, the weather has finally warmed up and the sun is shining, so here are some pics around where I live in south east Ireland.


Our Ladies Island Lake


A religous well, drinking the water cures diseases of the eye


Another sort of well


Away from the main roads

Sprocket,

Beautiful photos! I haven't been back in 25 years. I want to get over there.

My family is from Galway-Mayo.

The Scrambler looks great in those shots.

Thanks for starting off my day on a pleasant note.

Best,
Don

Great photos, Sprock! Looks like a nice, green Spring there on the emerald isle.
