Took these 3 weeks ago tomorrow at about 2230, so appologies for the quality of the pictures. However, I like how a few turned out with the sunset on the horizon and I thought I'd share them here, especially seeing as I won't be taking any more for the next few years.
This is the first picture I took as we were going up. It had been an especially hot day, and due to the fact we were pretty high up, you can see mist forming lower down. You may be able to make out the city of Lisburn in the background, it's basically joined to Belfast now and isn't really a city in it's own right.
I was actually trying to get a picture of the source of the River Lagan, which is hidden just behind the hill in the foreground. It was actually quite so
me distance to walk through the marshland to get a half decent picture, so I passed. Maybe next time, might be able to get one from the air
The sun decending behind another mountain range in Co. Tyrone (I think). Again, not a great picture.
The main reason why I uploaded these pics to here. To see the mist move at speed beneath you was amazing. On a clear day you have a great view of the mountains just behind it, but in it's absence, I thought that this made a great pic.
Sun finally down an a nice orange-basked landscape with Belfast Lough to the right of the picture.
I never knew that lambs headbutted their mothers' stomach before attempting to suckle. Pity I didn't get a picture of it in action.
Hopefully I might be able to get some pictures from the same place in the next few weeks, but I doubt it. Would be nice to see it during the day though.
