Hi George, many thanks for your comments. you are correct in saying that the 'black' is in fact the sea. I used a red filter to boost the black and white on this image. Be assured your always welcome in Ireland. For more images checkout www.irish-images.com , which is my website. Thanks again for your feedback! Regards Cormac.
A few years ago, my wife and I drove through Ireland--a wonderful experience. At the time, I had not yet gotten back to anything like serious photography. We didn't get to Antrim, but with images like this one, I am even more anxious to return. This is a striking--even surprising--image. I suppose the dark area is the sea, and the starkness of the contrast of that area does dominate the image. But the soft value rendition of the field in the foreground is really lovely and very inviting. Thanks . . .
