Rocks - with Art and without Art and a Sunset

Last Sunday Tech Amergin, Waterville has organised a workshop on Rock Art and Even guided the group after an highly interesting introduction showing Rock Art all over the world to several locations where this carvings can be found on the Iveragh Peninsula. Unfortunately the weather was not very fortunate and some of the objects had even to be inspected in the light of a flashlight. However, using this artificial lighting generated a few quite interesting pictures.
The next day the sun came out and we walked the dog on the very North-Eastern end of Valentia, on the Cliffs underneath the Valentia Radio Station.
The day finally ended with one of those glorious Sunsets which you must photograph, even if you have already loads of similar ones on your harddrive.
