Brendan says: “The beach at Maghery on the western coast of Donegal has a Napoleonic-era tower overlooking it. I tried a few exposures with my telephoto lens but it just wasn’t doing the scene justice. The clouds were moving in so I decided to try a wide-angle shot with a longer exposure to capture all surroundings and this image was the result.”
