I made this from an Irish Lights helicopter, shooting through an open door as we transited north along the Connemara coast. No second pass. You spot something, you react, and either you get it or you don't.
Omey is a peculiar place. At low tide it's not even an island. A sandy causeway connects it to the mainland and people drive across regularly, though get the timing wrong and your car is going for a swim. From the air, though, its real character opens up. The brown moorland scored with old field boundaries, the scattered white houses, the channels of deep green-blue Atlantic running between every spit of land. Behind it all, the Twelve Bens sitting along the horizon like a wall.
What held me was the layering. Foreground rock and surf, then the tidal channels, then Omey itself, then the mainland, then the mountains. Five distinct horizontal bands of colour and texture stacked one behind the other. It's a view that would be impossible from the ground and very difficult even from a drone at this scale.
I've flown this coastline a number of times now with Irish Lights, and Connemara from above never fails to surprise me. The landscape is ancient and intricate in a way that only reveals itself from this height!
