At home, I wait for good weather to kayak, or to go for a walk, or to take photos. On a trip, I take what I get.
On this day at Glenveagh National Park in County Donegal, I get recurring bursts of wind and rain interspersed with sunny periods. It makes for dramatic exposures, but no shots of reflections of the surrounding hills in the Loch — the iconic image from this area, judging from the photos featured on the official website. Taken, I assume, by someone who was more-or-less at home and who had the luxury of waiting for blue skies and no wind to ruffle the water.
Very nice, and nicer than the day!
Mary – Parts of the day were excellent. Short parts. 🙂
Irish weather can be unbelievably bleak. Though no worse, I suppose, than Red Deer in a blizzard.

Jim – I don’t know what that wet would be like in winter temps, but I think I’d adjust to it better than our extremes. We were just in Kingston in scorching temps (26C, 77% humidity, and cloudless skies), and I know only too well what our winters can be like.
