Stunning view on a fabulous day @ mizen Head
One of the last shots of the day. From my day out with West Cork Landscape Photographer Trish Punch. If you want a day out finding all the locations that you do not think you could find yourself I can highly recommend a day out with Trish. Her local knowledge is great and will stand you in good stead for some great shots. #trishpunchphotography
