Today was a perfect winter day, sharp, bright crystal clear skies
Close to the Turnip House on the Lighthouse Road is a car park and viewing point, giving a slightly different perspective, and importantly huge vistas down to Armagh, and Slieve Gullion over 20 miles away.
I took a trip over this evening to capture the spectacular sunset:

I took a trip over this evening to capture the spectacular sunset:
| at the Lighthouse Road viewpoint - exhilarating! |
| snow capped Slieve Donard & Commedagh, catching the last of the sun |
| the lovely wee path to the viewpoint |
| the great whale back of Slieve Gullion, over 20 miles away in County Armagh |
| to the left of the picture you can see the iconic water tower of 'Rathfriland on the Hill' |
| back home, and a murmuration of Starlings overhead |
| wintry silhouette |
| the familiar ridge line against the sky |
