Sligo looking out towards the sea from behind Benbulben? Is this near it but from a different angle? www.flickr.com/photos/16132340@N07/2814539663/

Swordscookie I thought that initially, and don't want to steer you in the wrong direction but I think it might be in another county (from the run of Lawrence photo id numbers - though that's not always 100% accurate or scientific).

If it's north of the border then apart from Fermanagh I would not have a clue. It reminds me of driving from Cavan through Leitrim to Sligo but I cannot remember the location of the spot I have in mind!

I say it's Glenariff. I have a similar photo. www.flickr.com/photos/13073434@N03/7655265084/in/photostream

Robin Parkes Looks like it Robin, just shows you how much I missed by not going north more often.

This from the NYT archives: CAVE-BROWN-CAVE TO WED MISS PIGOTT; Clergyman and Big Game Hunter Is Engaged to Norfolk Baronet's Daughter. Special Cable to THE NEW YORK TIMES. August 4, 1922, Friday LONDON, Aug. 3.--The engagement is announced of the Rev. Sir Genille CaveBrown-Cave and Emma Julia Pigott, daughter of Sir Digby Pigott of Sheringham, Norfolk.

This was from an autograph selling site (describing one for sale) CAVE-BROWN-CAVE, Reverend Sir Genille (?-?). Autograph Letter Signed. This English nobleman (12th Baronet of Stratton Hall) emigrated to America and played cowboy, among other things, before becoming a minister; authored the 1928 memoir "From Cowboy to Pulpit." ALS, 1p, 8½" X 11", ornate Salvation Army Industrial Home letterhead, Chester, PA, 1912 July 4. Addressed to Roddick W. Marten. Good. Acid transfer from newspaper clipping at upper right, some age toning. Has never met a man that Marten is seeking -- "it is very hard to trace a man in the West." Comes with newspaper clipping, "Girl Won Titled Cowboy Over to Salvation Army," .. could it be that Miss Piggott is the girl who won him over??.

These pictures are great. I am really happy that the Library of Congress is doing this.

Wonderful photo! Ditto, I am happy LC is doing this. I was 1 month old when this was taken, in Illinois to boot, and this scene brings back fond memories. The more railroad pictures you post, the better! Bravo and thank you.

What a fantastic serie of beautiful photos. Fantastic that the Library of Congress is doing this. -- Seen on your photo stream. (?)
Thomas Hobbs said:
This is a real treasure of the public domain. I think it is fantastic to make these available through Flickr, the best photo sharing site around. It is a shame they have not uploaded the full resolution images. The LOC's own site will often have 20MB scans of these photos. I've made some beautiful prints of New York's Penn Station from there.

Thomas, the link to the persistent URL in the description area will take you to a high-resolution version of the image. Good luck!
