This is a mosaic of 12 photos made on August 4, 2013 and combined later. The place is near Moville, Inishowen, County Donegal, Ireland. I made the photos standing near GPS coordinates (55.2362111,-6.9276901). A sailing web page gives the coordinates of Portkill as (55.2401667,-6.9324665). The camera was handheld. Hugin free software was used to combine the photos into a high resolution mosaic. A high resolution version is at: https://www.a-wee-bit-of-ireland.com/eire_2013/2013aug04_Stroove_mosaic_lb.jpg but is likely larger than should be uploaded here. In Hugin I manually selected 2267 control points so that Hugin could combine the photos with a pleasing viewpoint. After I got home, I wished I had time to make a few more photos to be added to the mosaic. Camera settings, shutter speed was auto and varied with brightness for individual photos [EXIF:Time] DateTimeOriginal : 2013:08:04 [MakerNotes:Camera] LensModel : EF-S55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS [EXIF:Camera] Model : Canon EOS REBEL T1i [EXIF:Camera] FocalLength : 55.0 mm [EXIF:Image] ISO : 100 [EXIF:Image] FNumber : 6.3 A legend associated with this place says that Columbcille (also called St. Columba) stopped here for one last look at Ireland before exiling himself to Scotland.
