Horses at Sunset, Ireland

As the sun sets, three horses walk along a ridge in an Irish field with clouds catching the end of day colour in the open sky.

It's the end of April, the trees are still somewhat bare but colour is slowly returning into the countryside here in Ireland.

A cold evening with a strong wind, the horses make their way towards me but stop at the bales of hay and take a bite to eat.

The fence, its barbed wire illuminated by the low sun is hardly suitable to contain these majestic animals.

Join me on a photography tour in Ireland's countryside to capture scenes like these.
