From Gougane Barra.
St. Finbarr’s Oratory has such a beautiful setting it’s no surprise that it’s frequently used for weddings. It’s situated on a kind of peninsula out in a lake, where legend says that St. Finbarr built a monastery.
I love the contrast of the natural textures of leaves and grass next to the stone of the oratory, and I especially love the texture of the lake water as it’s rippled by the breeze.
What a heavenly place. I bet it is very peaceful but lonely in winter!

You would definitely have to like quiet and solitude to live there, I think! But a perfect place to visit and recharge.
