I photographed the very attractive mountain of Muckish, along with its smaller neighbour Crocknalaragah, late last Summer. It was on a rare dry day of high winds and rapidly moving clouds, allowing the light to give that that lovely dappled end ever-changing look to the landscape.
Irresistible, delightful and frustrating all at once for a landscape photographer if he or she has visualised what they want to show and the elements just won't put that shaft of sunlight where it should be or a sudden squall means "tools down" while the lens cover has to be wiped clean again.
I completed my round of the Aghlas (described on another of my reports) and promised myself that I would tackle Muckish before I had to return home to Scotland, but sadly the rest of the holiday was a return to low, thick cloud and constant rain showers, so it is still on my list...hopefully 2020 will see the weather being more obliging for me and I will get to climb this lovely-looking hill, along with a few more of the peaks in spectacular north Donegal.
