Stunning.
Whereabouts were you in Ireland when you took this photo? I'm graduating this year and seriously planning on going there in the summer.

Hi Erin
This is taken at the same place as the the other picture you faved 'Ireland' (just from another angle)
This is Kinbane castle!....built in 1546-7...Less than 10 years later, in 1555, the castle was partially destroyed by English forces. Kinbane Castle was lived in until the 1700's and the last person to inhabit the castle was a Mrs. McAlister.
Travelling along the coast road from Ballycastle to Balintoy, a sign pointing to the right reveals the location of Kinbane Castle. A winding road takes you to the Kinbane car park which, on a good day, has breathtaking views of the cliffs back to Ballycastle and Fair Head beyond.
A little word of warning if you ever go: to get to the castle, there's a steep (very) descent by way of a winding stairway down the cliff face. The pathway is closed, although you can get down if you're willing to jump a couple of fences! We did...and it was well worth it! What a view!
I loved it & will go go back again one day (glutton for punishment or what?)

Wow, great! Thank you so much for the information. Yeah, I'll definitely write this all down somewhere, I really hope to go there some day. Is everything really that green? :3
And Merry Christmas, by the way!
