Glasoileán Beach, Connemara

Glassillaun Beach, Connemara, 1982, Gordon Stokes

I first went to Glassillaun Beach (Glasoileán, pronounced Glash-lorn roughly) 30 years ago, and didn't remember I'd been there as the maps were so awful then. And it was raining with a strong cold wind.

In June 2014 the weather was amazing, but of course I didn't take exactly the same photo as I'd taken 30 years ago. But the one below is as close as I got to it.
