    Congratulation for your beautiful Album.

    The narrow body of water, the background and the subjects immediately made me think Kerry, and more specifically Valentia Island. I think if you look at the triangular shaped field in the back ground on the left and the line of trees from the shore, it matches up with the view from this link looking across a boggy field from Carhan Lower, Co. Kerry on the road to Portmagee looking over at Valentia Island. goo.gl/maps/J1cq43KVBtP2

    Some of Tynan's work is rather mundane but others, such as the ploughboy, are just out of this world. I love this shot!

    Been there, done that. My father in law was cutting, my wife was in her bare feet in the hole tossing the turfs out and my mother in law and I were futting the turf. We were liberally doused with old perfume to keep the midges at bay. We travelled to the bog in a split screen Morris Minor.

    Swordscookie Yes, it is a wonderful composition. Quite a lot to do with the classic "Rule of Thirds" (see notes) - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_thirds

    See notes on photo. Tractor is a bit fuzzy on Megazoom but looks like a Fordson Major. Exhaust pipe is outside bonnet on LH side. Dextas came through bonnet. Good write up on Railbuses if you click on above picture.
