Letters from the Landscape
The sun was low in the west, throwing warm light directly onto the stone walls and the round tower. Partly cloudy sky, which is exactly what you want. Enough cloud to catch colour, enough gaps to let the light through. The Galtee Mountains were disappearing into a band of haze along the ridge, and the whole Tipperary countryside was rolling away flat and green to the horizon.
What made this photograph was the boundary wall. From ground level you barely notice it, but from above it becomes the whole composition. One long, unbroken curve tracing the contours of the limestone hill, holding the cathedral ruins, the round tower, Cormac's Chapel, the graveyard with its carved Celtic crosses, all within its sweep. The seat of the high kings of Munster before the Church took it over in the 12th century.
The scaffolding on Cormac's Chapel is part of a major OPW conservation project that began in 2009 to preserve Ireland's earliest surviving wall frescoes, dating from the 1100s. Practically medieval itself at this stage! I'm glad I finally stopped driving past.

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.

My wife, son and I visited the Rock on our first day ever in Ireland. We have never forgotten that trip and now we can see it every day in Peter’s photo and recall all of the memories we made on that West Coast trip.
Fantastic service from start to finish. Great people to deal with would thoroughly recommend them to anyone.
Wonderful image. Great job on framing. Highly recommend
