The afternoon started easily enough: I parked and walked along a beautiful Irish beach along the Copper Coast. However, soon, I found myself scrambling over moss-covered rocks until I arrived at a stone outcropping reaching out into the rising Atlantic tide.
Spotting a small stone arch above, I crawled up the rocks until I could slide my camera bag through the low opening. The arch was low enough that I was forced to crawl on my stomach. The effort revealed a small, secluded beach.
As the tide continued to rise, I was standing in calf-deep water by the time I settled on my composition, cleaning ocean spray off my lens after each capture. When I was finally satisfied that I had captured the image I wanted, the tide had made returning the way I came impossible. The only way off this small, secluded beach was to climb a near-vertical, grass-covered cliff.
