PROFUNDO JOURNEYS

Ireland 2012





Ireland
September 28 – October 10, 2012

12 nights & 13 days

Ireland offers some of the best landscape photography in the world.  Join Cindy and Eileen as they travel to this small island of extraordinary beauty. Whether the thought of Ireland conjures up images of windswept cliffs, haunting views of castle and abbeys or unspoiled villages alive with the Irish spirit, you will not be disappointed.  This workshop has been designed to increase your artistic and technical photographic skills while you experience an authentic Irish journey.

Our workshop will begin on Galway Bay in a seaside town called Kinvarra.  Kinvarra will serve as our home base while we explore the Cliffs of Moher, the Burren, small villages and Galway Town.  We will then travel to the medieval city of Kilkenny, where we will visit ancient castles, abbeys and ruins along with enchanting countryside and small Irish towns.  One of the many allures of Ireland is the ease at which the old and the new survive together; history is ever present at every curve along the winding roadways.

              

After spending time in a medieval city, we will relax for an evening in the remote forest park of Gougane Barra, where St. Finbar, according to tradition, built his secluded monastery in the 6th century.  This is an area of profound beauty and simplicity.

 

Our final destination is the Dingle Peninsula, once cited as "the most beautiful place on earth" by National Geographic.  Our days will be filled with visits to Gallarus Oratory, Inch Beach, beehive huts and weather permitting , the Blasket Islands.

The last night will be spent in a hotel close to Shannon Airport where we will have a closing reception and slide show.

Accommodations: Hotels and Inns picked with care!  Rates based on double occupancy.

The workshop is limited to 12 participants.


Level: Working knowledge of your camera.  Both enthusiasts and professionals will gain from this workshop!
