Doe Castle (Glen, Co Donegal. Ireland)





if these walls could speak...
we stand in silence, feeling minuscule in the large archways of rock. we look at one another and words are nowhere to be found.

My family has been to Ireland many times but my fondest memories were as a 5 year old girl running around castles such as these, pretending to protect it during times of attack:)
These castles insire the imagination!! Your photos make me want to visit again.

Claire, I didn't even know you had started this blog! That's how behind I am on my Internet life these days, but I'm getting better. I really like this space :)

Sorry about the pix yesterday—got back all full of excitement over my day and totally forgot! I'm posting them for you today, I promise.

there is something very special about Ireland. Amazing how many talented musicians come from there. I see some of my favorite angles in your pics ;-)

Imagine how freezing these places were in winter back in the day. Imagine how wet they were in the rain and snow - they didn't have glass windows, did they? Always wondered how they kept warm and snug!
