📍Hook Lighthouse, Co. Wexford, Ireland
The ‘Grand Daddy’ of Irish Lighthouses. This 13th century lighthouse - Ireland’s oldest and the World’s oldest ‘intact’ operating lighthouse - was amazing to see up close and personal.

A wide-angle shot of the modern Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Bridge, a large cable-stayed bridge, spanning a body of water under a dramatic blue sky with white and grey clouds. The bridge's prominent concrete piers and white support cables dominate the frame, connecting the foreground riverbanks to a distant treeline and a small building on the right bank. Reeds and a muddy shoreline are visible along the water's edge in the foreground. The lighting suggests either early morning or late afternoon, casting a warm glow on parts of the bridge structure.

A low-angle shot of the Dublin Spire, a tall, needle-like monument, reflecting the surrounding city and sky. The lower portion of the Spire is visible, showing a textured, weathered surface with patches of rust-like discolouration. Below, the ground is covered in puddles which perfectly mirror the facades of old, Georgian-style buildings and the warm, cloudy sky, creating an intriguing juxtaposition between the monument and its environment. The reflection shows intricate details of the buildings and the subtle colours of the sky, blending seamlessly with the Spire's surface.

A striking black and white photograph of the tall, cylindrical stone chimney of Ballycorus Lead Mines, also known as Carrickgollogan Tower, standing prominently on a hilltop. A spiral staircase wraps around its exterior. In the background, a vast landscape extends towards the sea under a clear sky, with a town visible in the distance. The foreground shows rugged terrain and low-lying vegetation.
