We have selected Inishmore Island to feature in our beautiful photo book "Around the World in 80 Islands". It is from this point of view that the selected photo was taken, which highlights the mineral side of the landscape.

We took the ferry in the fog to the third of the four islands - Árainn Mhór.
Peter meant well for us again and cleared the fog after our arrival. The sun was so strong that the jackets quickly disappeared into the backpack and the sunscreen was unpacked.
