The story behind this image

Doolin Harbour, on the west coast of County Clare, Ireland, boasts some lovely rock details, and I took advantage of a short stopover there to do a little exploring along the foreshore.

This rock shelf, with its patterns, colours and textures, proved to be the most photogenic location, and I spent just a few minutes to compase and take a series of frames here before moving on down the coast a little further.
