Spent a couple of days up in Castle Leslie in Glaslough, Co Monaghan in Ireland. Superb location and some great photographic opportunities around the area. Shot with a variety of gear but used the 1dmk3 and 24mm TSE a lot, shot a lot of these early in the morning with a lot of mist around. Probably make a good spot for landscape courses with the variety of the surrounding countryside

Really like these, especially the close boathouse shot. The fog adds a really eerie feel to it.

I have to agree - the close boathouse shot looks like a painting. I would put it on a canvas wrap and hang it on the wall. I love it.

Might I make a suggestion? remove the full-res versions from wherever you hosted them. That boathouse shot is something that should be framed for sure and with posting the original, anyone could download it and have it printed.

Some of the shots have a bit cropped here and there, or a crooked horizon, but the boat house shot is dead on beautiful.. Could be one of those once in a lifetime "nailed it" shots!

Awesome series! If I may, I think the Grounds water fountain thing shouldn't be cropped out at the bottom but I dunno what the rest of the pic looks like or if it's not a crop.

That first shot is a whopper of an opener to the series. Love it! And, agreed that the close up of the boathouse is a very good shot, too.

Straightening...lol. Every time I straighten the horizon, I hang the picture crooked.

Thanks for the comments, I will take your suggestion and remove the large versions.
