Pounding waves of the Atlantic, Achill island

Atlantic Drive Achill island

“Invincible, unassailable, utterly indifferent. Every threat. Every promise.”

– SJ Mannion

I took this black and white photo of Achill island on a very windy day in November. The island is located just off the coast of county Mayo. The light was very changeable and the wind was so strong I worried about the sharpness of the image. I love the power of the ocean especially in stormy weather. It is so hypnotic and I wanted to communicate that in the photo.
