These photos are too beautiful for words!!!!! It's at times like this that I wish I could just step into a photograph and go where it was taken!

These are beautiful, I hope that maybe I will visit someday! this makes the world seem more desirable to live in, I wish there were places like this at easy access instead of cities that damage places this beautiful, I appreciate all that metropolises offer, but seeing these pics makes me wonder if we would be better of living in nature or closer to it.

I love these boards, it's great to know that other people out there appreciate beauty the way I do.

Thank you Meller for posting these. I can literally feel myself taking in a stunning breath of air scrolling through your photos.

Having an Irish Mum I was brought up seeing pictures of Ireland, record covers, postcards etc. I finally got there as a teenager and even as one of those :P I was in awe of the fact that all those pictures did not even come close to the beauty of Ireland. I had imagined that they were edited, touched up, that nowhere could be that green etc. These photos are incredible, they show that part of Ireland, that unfortunately is not communicated enough...they are breathtaking and definitely take those of us that have been, back in an instant. You showed that Ireland is so much more than Green.

I remember crossing the Channel on a Ferry; we rented a car and drove through Ireland. We bought warm sweaters and clogs. We picked up hitchhikers and saw places we would never have seen otherwise. We went to Muckross House and read the history of the famine, the blockade of ports to keep out food shipments, the use of Irish peasants as "slave labor". We saw pictures of Irish women working in the basement of the house, using huge, heavy pieces of machinery. I understood the stories passed down from my grandmother's side. I saw the estates sold to the English by Irish landholders, one of whom was on my grandfather's side. He sold an estate, sailed to the U.S., hired a wagon train to take the Oregon Trail where he bought land, still owned today. Ireland would not declare war in WWII. Irony: we met many Germans in pubs who were buying land in Ireland to raise race horses.

Wow. This guy is seriously good. So many times the photographer over bakes the images. These still look very natural. Great pix!

I'm going to Ireland over Christmas for the first time. We'll be staying on the south west part of the isle. Where are any of the locations of any of the photos? In particular, I was looking at the first one of the trees.

The trees are located in Northern Ireland, but don't worry, the South West is one of the most beautiful parts of the country, and is full of sights and places as good and probably better than the photos above. Hopefully it won't be too wet!

Gorgeous photos. Do you mind if I ask where irish fairytale volume 2 was taken? I live in Dublin, and I think this shot could be Donegal? Thank you.
