Ireland Picture Post #3: Connemara

These photos are from Day 5, Connemara Scenic Drive, Part 1 and Part 2.  Connemara is a beautifully wild, Irish-speaking region northwest of Galway.  It was also easily one of the most gorgeous places I've ever seen.

A soft mixture of wild grasses, flowers, and mosses blanketed the ground along the Sky Road overlook





Cozy cottages nestle at the feet of giants
