The source of the Bandon river in Dunmanway (Dùn Mánmhaí in Gaelic), County Cork, April 2006.When springtime comes, the aquatic plants blossoms and the rivers of Ireland are full of color and aroma. An early morning walk with the sound of gentle flowing water, birds singing and the blossoming fragrance will prepare one for any busy day!

"The forgotten roads"
A track road in the Natural Reserve of Glengarriff (An Gleann Garbh in Gaelic), Crossterry Mountains, County Cork, December 2005.
Ireland has thousands of roads including modern highways, national routes and country side roads. But there is another kind of road: the one that allows the adventuring tourist to lose themselves deep in the countryside, to wander high over the mountains, far away from everything. Even in the busiest season, these roads feel deserted.Solitary...that is the way I found this road on a winter’s day with lot of sun, but cold and windy!
