late evening at the lily pond

This lily pond is in a bog in Connemara very near where Alcock and Brown crash landed after making the first Trans-Atlantic flight in 1919.

Great shot. Love the colors and lighting. Good story also.

Alcock and Brown, two Manchester lads, I suspect they must have seen a pub nearby. Nice shot, keep it simple is always a good idea.
