last weekend I walked the coastal path all the way from Larrybane beside the Carrick-a-rede rope bridge to Dunseverick harbour. Lots of wildlife along the way – seals & dolphins playing in Whitepark bay and pretty sure we saw some whales as well! Sadly no photographic evidence of the wildlife but these were my favourite shots.
I have been hoping to get a shot of the church from this angle for a long time. I took this just a few weeks ago when the winter sun was low in the sky.

the same church from a different viewpoint…
Its been an amazing day on the north Antrim coast.
A day of constantly changing scenery and showers, wind so strong that it wasn’t wise to go too close to the edge of the harbour, one moment its sunny and cold the next its windier and hailing and you can’t see more than a few hundred yards.
The view from Dunseverick towards Ballintoy church – it was relatively sunny at this point. Large waves and lots of spray.
Only a few minutes along the coast at Ballintoy harbour and the sky is darkening.
The sea is so turbulent it is smothered with white foam and Sheep Island may soon be obscured by the hail.
Along the coast road driving west you can usually depend on the view over Portbradden:
