This is that famous tree in county carlow. I'm from the county myself and I have never taken a photograph of this tree that seems to attract loads of other photographers. I took this through a bus window on the way to Dublin to see my girlfriend. I was lucky i had the 400d and the nifty fifty with me. I noticed the overcast sky and thought well maybe i'd be able to get something from this. I thought it turned out well for a shot through a dirty bus window.

It's on the main Kilkenny Road from Carlow. Just after the Dolmen Hotel on the Kilkenny side on your Left as your travelling in that Direction. Alot of people pass it everyday and don't realise it's signifigance to the photographic community. It has been captured many times.

Oh and thanks

Its probably the dirty bus window that helped with the nice effect on this..:)

It is a great shot..

Officially opened in 1996 it seems to be pretty much abandoned these days.

Before and after shots from the recent floods. The after taken last week. The river Lerr runs just behind the trees and flows into the Barrow about 200m further along.

You might need to install a plugin called sliverlight, its free and small, takes about 10 secs to install.
I'm planning to do more once the weather warms up, if anyone can suggest areas or things around Carlow, that would be great!!

Let me know what you all think!

Its probably a rubbish photo as I'm not the greatest photographer in the world, but this just shows how cold it is down at Ballykealey House.
