Cliff Walk Ardmore, Co. Waterford – 1/Project52
The first entry on my 2012 Project 52 is a shot which was taken this weekend in Ardmore, Co. Waterford from the Cliff Walk. Set off at the Cliff House Hotel and the journey takes about 60-90 minutes depending on your pace, and you end up back at the round tower in Ardmore.
This shot was taken mid-morning, luckily the sun was behind clouds so I was able to recover the detail from the sky.
Its a great walk and this time last year I posted a great shot of the Samson Crane which lies at the foot of these cliffs since 1987.
One of the other shots from this shoot was used on the Ardmore Pattern Festival Calendar 2013 (January photo).
