The pictures for this book were taken in March and September, 2009.

The first time I visited Ireland, I spent a month in Galway and I went on some really nice trips during the weekends: the Aran Islands, Achill island via Connemara, Westport and Newport, and the Ring of Kerry.

Someone might ask why being Ireland so colourful, with its gorgeous sceneries, have I decided to do this book in B&W? Indeed this is the first time that I have used monochrome for landscapes or for anything other than people. I had so many pictures that I just looked for a different point of view. This is the result!
