GOUGANE BARRA, CORK, IRELAND


This picture was taken during a hike around Gougane Barra in the county of Cork in South Ireland. This is a fairly picturesque spot, famed as the source of the river Lee which runs through Cork City, and as the hermitage of St. Finbarr, the patron saint of Cork (indeed, legend has it that he founded Cork city in the eighth century.) The church itself is on a small island. How peaceful!!!
