Can I fly over now and take landscapes with you? This really made me miss Ireland.

Have to say 3 and 6 are my favorites. :thumb For the third one, I might have put the boat a bit more to the left in the frame, but you have the right idea here. It's a great focal point full of character that can lead you into the landscape--thus more landscape visible behind it might be nice. It would be interesting to see this shot from the same vantage point with a wide-angle lens. Maybe with you just a bit lower.

The sixth photo brings in what some of the other landscapes here lack, which is amazing light. The crispness of that crest of shadow against the illuminated portion is beautiful.

Ah, who'm I kidding? It's impossible to take a bad picture of Ireland. Thank you for filling my morning with some great memories. :D
