The photograph

Letters from the Landscape

This is where it all started. Malin Head, the most northerly point of Ireland, and the first photograph I made for a project to document the entire Wild Atlantic Way coastline from the air. I live in West Cork, so the logic was straightforward. Begin at the furthest point from home, and every trip after that gets a little shorter. That was the plan, at least.

I drove up to Donegal not entirely sure what I'd find from above. I'd stood on this ground before, but never seen it like this. The sun was sinking into a band of haze, throwing that soft diffused warmth across everything. No harsh shadows, just gold. Banba's Crown sits right at the tip of the headland, that old stone tower perched on the highest point with the Atlantic open in every direction beneath it. The layered rock shelves below look almost like a geological cross-section from this height, dark stone with white water breaking across them. And that grass, impossibly green against the warm sky.

I've made hundreds of photographs for that project since, but this one holds a particular place for me. Not the most dramatic image in the collection, but the first. Every long undertaking needs a starting point, and mine began here on a Donegal clifftop with the sun going down!

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.

What does shipping cost?

I ship worldwide, and every print from Exhibition size up goes free to Ireland, the UK and Europe. Studio prints and books carry a small charge, and the cost for the size you've chosen is shown under the Add to Cart button. The full table is on our Shipping page, and you'll see the exact cost at checkout before you pay. Every parcel is tracked and insured. Within the EU there's no customs duty; outside it, any import duty or tax is the buyer's to pay.

Does the size include the frame?

Yes. A framed size is the whole frame, edge to edge: 3 inches bigger each way than the print inside it. An unframed size is the sheet of paper, including the white border where I sign and title each print by hand. Canvas and Floating Panel sizes are the face of the piece.
