The photograph
Loop Head II, Co. Clare

Letters from the Landscape

The morning before this, I watched a rotor tear itself loose mid-flight and nearly lost a heavy lift drone into the Atlantic. One motor ripped clean off its mount. The thing lurched and staggered over open ocean for what felt like a very long time before I managed to nurse it back to solid ground. Shoot over.

So I drove from Clare to County Louth, got the drone repaired that same day, turned around and drove the whole way back. Seven hours on the road to be standing in the exact same spot by evening. Sometimes that's what it takes.

The following morning, the sky caught fire. Intense red and orange light flooding through broken altocumulus, the kind of sunrise you might see once or twice a year. Waves hammering the base of the cliffs, the lighthouse compound sitting white against all that colour and fury. This photograph became the cover image for my Atlantic Light book, and I think you can see why!

There's an "Eire" sign near the tip of the peninsula, painted during the Second World War to help American pilots navigating the Atlantic. A small detail, but I love that it's visible in the frame. Loop Head is the full stop at the end of that extraordinary sentence of cliffs that begins with the Cliffs of Moher further north. The Shannon Estuary on one side, open Atlantic on the other. Sometimes the worst days set up the best ones.

Before you buy

When will it arrive?

You'll get an email with tracking as soon as it ships. If it's for a date, a birthday, an anniversary or a new home, add a note at checkout or email me at info@petercox.ie. I'll do my best to prioritise it and give you a realistic timeline.

★★★★★Amazing!
Saw this 7 years ago in Killarney in the gallery and should have bought it then. Returned last fall, and should have bought it then. Bought it online this spring, and arrived quickly, with great communication! Has been framed, hung, and is being enjoyed! Even the framer said it was an AMAZING photograph!

★★☆☆☆Amazing picture but process was poor
I fell in love with Peters work in 2017 when I visited by chance his gallery in Killarney - his art is stunning! It took me a while to make the decision to buy this picture, in my feeling 650€ is a lot of money (but of course it‘s worth it). But that is the reason I was so disappointed about the purchase process: I had to wait 1 month to get my order and haven‘t received any information while the process. It‘s okay when it takes some time, but then please inform the customer in order confirmation and give regular status updates. Thank you Peter for your stunning art!

★★★★★Perfect present
I was looking for an engagement present for my friend. She got engaged on Loop Head. I came across Peter's work and knew straight away this was It! I loved the way Peter captured the essence of his beautiful place. I contacted the studio to see about getting the picture personalised, and this was not a problem at all. I was very impressed with how quickly the picture was delivered and my friend told me how beautifully presented it was. I would highly recommend Peter's work and the professional manner in which his business is run.
