In the Forest

It was a beautiful summer's day today, sunshine and blue skies. The perfect day for a trip to the beach. Except of course when you have a boisterous Labrador who would no doubt run away with people's suncream, gallop through sandcastles and make a nuisance of himself.
So we went to Slieve Gullion instead, enjoyed a walk through the forest and spectacular views of the Armagh countryside.

This is splendidly seen and captured. Sometimes the small and simple flowers can be the most beautiful. V

Just a superb POV and outstanding isolation of the wildflower against the lush green! V

A beautiful spot of color in that shaft of sunlight. This image alone would be worth a trip!

Such a pretty little inhabitant there to greet you and provide you with a lovely photographic subject!

Sounds like a nice day in the forest. And you don't have mosquitos in Ireland, I've heard.
Labradors and public beaches don't match well. My Töpseli tried to save everybody who were in the water... Very embarassing :-) and she stole all food she could find. Once a whole soccer teams sandwiches.

Very subtle sunlight hitting the leaves; almost looks more like one of our winter days. (Well, ones like we've had recently anyaya; cool but brightly sunny.)

The tiny wildflower is a jewel amongst its leaves, lovely shot. I grow many of these cranesbills and love to find a new one! V

Beautiful to see the countryside in miniature too. This little flower is lovely. A great shot too.
