Ross Castle sits on the edge of Killarney’s lower lake and was built by O’Donoghue Mór in the 15th century. Legend of this castle has it that O’Donoghue still exists in a deep slumber under the waters of Lough Leane. On the first morning of May every seven years he rises from the lake on his magnificent white horse and circles the lake. Anyone catching a glimpse of him is said to be assured of good fortune for the rest of their lives. The large rock at the entrance to the bay is known as O’Donoghue’s prison. Ross Castle was the last stronghold in Munster to hold out against Cromwell. It was eventually taken by General Ludlow in 1652. ------------------------------------------------------------------ #rosscastle #killarneynationalpark #irishcastle #countykerry #castlesofireland #visitkerry castleandchateau #irelandcollective #irelandtravel #raw_ireland #irelandloves #jashseurope #total_medieval #total_europe #daily_ireland #bestirelandpics #castellidelmondo #wideanglephotography #tokinausa #munster #lovekillarney #killarneyireland yourcastles world_of_castles_ #castellinelmondo #nasvetzaizlet #irska #irelandtv #teamtokina #monumental_world #monumentalworld

Winter Lake Morning
Working back in Killarney National Park is like hanging out with an old friend, except now they`ve got new stories to tell.
I`m really enjoying having another look at locations that I didn`t quite get to work in for my first book , for this next one.. KINGDOM ..( definitely coming this autumn ! )
It was apparently very easy to overlook some amazing locations and to rule out others for being difficult to get to. Now I have the time and a bit more confidence to take them on and see them in them in the first place .
Hope everyone is doing okay and staying safe and well. If you`re the new owner of a print, book or calendar this year .. do let me know and I hope it was a welcome gift !! . . . .. . . #kingdombook #kingdom #kerry #killarneynationalpark #discoverkerry #lovekillarney #ireland #irish #irishart #bookproject #landscapephotography #irishlandscape #lake #tree #winter #earlymorning #peace #calm

We just drove through the Gap of Dunloe (magical!!), the Black Valley, Moll`s Gap and we are currently at the Dog Friendly, Dinis Cafe, in Muckross. This is a beautiful stop off for walkers/cyclists, plus there`s a water station and treats for our canine companions too! * Another lucky find! *

Iggy got us both checked in to the fabulous *Dog Friendly* Dromhall Hotel this afternoon! A late 50th present from herself to me. We left Dingle this morning and covered a lot of ground on our way to Killarney, so we`ll be resting up tonight in style! Sheep`s Head is our destination for tomorrow evening, with as much as possible packed in between!

We had an early start from Dingle this morning, in order to enjoy a peaceful Gap of Dunloe. This is such a magical drive! So good, we drove up it twice! Breakfast was enjoyed on the rocks just below our car there, before we headed for Killarney, via the Black Valley, Moll`s Gap, diniscottagetearooms and Killarney National Park. Huge thanks to Tommy Griffin, Kerry footballing legend, for the accommodation at his dog friendly muiris_dans Bar in Dingle last night! Iggy has just surprised me with her delayed 50th birthday present to me! So tonight, we`re staying at the *Dog Friendly* Dromhall Hotel!

This was just great to watch! Iggy scored high marks with John and Noel Kissane, even though she has never worked with sheep like this before! Iggy was born to two working parents and the natural herding instinct is there to see. They complimented her barking too, as that helps drive on the sheep even better! When travel restrictions are lifted, please check out and support John and Noel`s open days at the farm.
Thanks a mil for the invite guys! James and Iggy 🐕🚶♂️

This feels soooo good! This is one of my favourite techniques from the world of structural integration (of which I have many). The eccentric contraction of the muscles along the side of the spine combined with the slow, deep pressure helps to not only free up restrictions but can also give you sensory feedback to move into parts of your spine that don`t move so freely. We all have parts of the spine that we have blind spots to, for many athletes it`s the lumbar spine (low back) to which they struggle with going into flexion because many are stuck in extension, this helps to free up the soft tissue around the low back so that the spine is able to explore those ranges of motion more easily. This technique is not only good for athletes though everyone can benefit from a spine that is able to move more freely.

Derrycunnihy Church
Is located on the infamous Ring of Kerry; found in Moll’s Gap you can reach Derrycunnihy by following the scenic main road (N21) towards Muckross for approx. 12km; after crossing Galway’s bridge you will reach the Church on a sharp bend where there is parking available.
Another hidden gem to be found in Killarney, the falls are almost an imminent sight only 1km from your departure. You can hear as they echo a peaceful air in nature’s playground. Continuing the route another .5km will bring you to the cascade – you will want your camera to capture this moment!
If you wish to lengthen this walk ever so slightly, Lord Brandon’s Cottage is only 2.5km from the cascades. The cottage resides at the opposite side in the Gap of Dunloe.
