In 2010 I plan to once again visit the Aran Islands, some images from my previous trip can be found at GLSmyth.com/Projects/AranIslands/Aran.htm. On the day this image was taken my girlfriend, her sister, and I had taken a hike in the gentle rain, meandering along a path without a clue as to where we would be going. We reached the end of the path, which was the other side of the island, and ate the lunch we had brought with us. By the time we finished the rain had stopped and I took this picture. I am very much looking forward to returning to these islands.
The Aran Islands are three very large rocks off the coast of Galway, Ireland. The only thing this rugged terrain offers in plentitude is rocks, so everything that can be built from rocks is done so. This shows a series of fences that denotes the boundaries of individual’s properties.
