Fire in the Sky 46/52
I had been meaning to get a photo of Murlough and the Mourne Mountains for ages. I had imagined in my head snow-capped Mourne mountains in November or December but I did always intend a sunset shot. I actually just happened to be driving through Newcastle and hadn't intended to get a photo but when I saw the sky that was shaping up in my rear view mirror I knew I had to pull in!
Murlough Nature Reserve lies on the coast of County Down in Northern Ireland, situated close to Newcastle. Murlough makes up one fifth of all dune heathland in the British Isles. It offers spectacular views of Slieve Donard, the highest peak in the Mourne Mountains and Dundrum Bay. In the distance here you can see Donard as the biggest mountain with Slieve Commedagh sitting to its right.
Its 6000-year old sand dune system has been managed by the National Trust since 1967, when it became Ireland's first nature reserve.
I used my B+W ND110 10-stop filter to get some cloud movement into the shot.
f/14 ISO 100 62 seconds.
