Landscape Photography Ireland Clare The Heart of the Burren (VLOG #10)

Join me in the world renowned Burren, Co Clare in search of landscape, forest and flora photographic compositions. This video is part of a series in which I travel along the Wild Atlantic Way in Ireland photographing the landscape of this magical country - it's coast, mountains and valleys.
This time around I find a unique Scot's Pine forest, photograph the flowers of the Burren in early May and climb the iconic Mullaghmore mountain. Were these hills the Misty Mountains of Lord of the Rings? Tolkien was fascinated by the the Burren and there is little doubt that the famed trilogy was inspired in part by this magical landscape.

Awesome! Just awesome! Love the Burren. Your wild flowers shots were fantastic! So we’re the inferred shots. So good to see you again, keep up the great work!

Brilliant video on Burren and music to match. Love the trees at 8.33 very beautiful. Thank you.

Lovely video Jimmy and great to see you breaking out the IR camera. I love shooting IR, especially when it comes to lone trees. Once you’ve seen the day through an IR viewfinder, normal reality is always a bit disappointing! 😊😊👍

Magic video Jimmy Love all the shots and good luck with the camper van😀😀

Brilliant video once again. Loved the images. I have to go and see that Scots Pine woodland. Amazing and exciting to see that in Ireland!

Wonderful images Jimmy. I must get to the Burren again and look for this magical forest!

Great stuff Jimmy, beautiful images capture that burren mood perfectly. Congratulations on the award for your red squirrel image by the way, delighted to see your name when I read the article. Well deserved

Hi Michael, It's the first time in a long while I've looked at the You Tube comments - apologies. Thanks so much Jimmy

[@vincebrophy8669]

Beautiful images. Love your soft dialogue.

Hi Vince, Thanks so much for your kind words. Glad you enjoyed the video. Jimmy

Love the i.r. Shots

[@jimmymcdonnell9435]

Thanks Robert, I know it's not everyone's cup of tea - I love IR. Just makes shooting during daylight a pleasure. Jimmy

[@RobertMintonPhotography]

@@jimmymcdonnell9435 I agree, I have been using it in a similar way, it is also reasonably commercial as I do sell some i.r. prints of trees etc.

Lovely work - thanks for sharing

Hi Mark, Thanks so much - greatly appreciated. Jimmy

[@SerielThriller]

Great video, would love to see your editing process.

[@jimmymcdonnell9435]

Hi, Thanks for that - much appreciated. The process is quite simple - just collating video, audio, stills in FCPX in chronological order. Jimmy
