Enter a percentage in the Horizontal and Vertical text boxes

Well I'd have assumed if you were going to the trouble of posting a picture, it'd be because you wanted people to see it - not bits of it at a time by scrolling over and back, up and down.

Not the best photo but this is a hole in Dunmore East Golf Club where you tee off from one cliff and the fairway is on the opposite one. It is spectacular. It was a stormy day and all of us put our drives and provisionals into the sea. ::)

Aye, that would do. He's in America on that Celtic Thunder tour at the minute, but I'll make sure he gets it when he comes back.

Childhood memories flying back!

Some spot!

Lived in Killybegs as a teenager, I spent many an evening sweating my arse off on the beach during football training, great memories. Of course I took the beauty of the area for granted when I lived in the area, I plan to go back up there next month when home and show my wife around.

Very gratifying to see so many pictures of Donegal!

Never appreciated the wild and scenic setting when I was growing up - it only much later that it kind of hit me one day.

As for my favourite non-Donegal places, overall its hard to beat the southwestern peninsulas, particularly the Dingle and Iveragh ones, although the crowds takes away from it a bit.

Is that Dundalk Bay from Slieve Gullion?
J >

It's looking down Glenariffe from the branch road, towards Red Bay and the Mull of Kintyre in the distance.
That's a bit harsh, views of the top of Slieve Gullion are magnificent. Ever been? >:(

Tony's comments don't even warrant a response. But for those interested please check out this:

Very gratifying to see so many pictures of Donegal!

Never appreciated the wild and scenic setting when I was growing up - it only much later that it kind of hit me one day.

Unfortunately if you took any of those photos now there'd be a dozen bungalows in each one.

An' 10 of them, holiday homes belongin' to those nordy b@st@rds :D

Almost everyone has selected somewhere coastal. Not surprising given the scenery around the coast of Ireland, but are there any scenic areas of note inland?

I took this picture a few years back at my the hotel my brother had his wedding reception at.

Harvey's Point just outside Donegal Town - it was so calm, so peaceful on a cold December afternoon

Lough Eske is a beautiful spot all right. And it took a foreigner to have the imagination to put up a hotel out there!

Yes, Lough Eske.

At the time I thought "what effing decadence" but then I thought ah feck I'm paying for this, might as well enjoy it.

The only clue I will give is that it's in Armagh, somewhere.

As noted by two other posters, Kilcar Gaa pitch has to be in the running for best ground location. Stumbled across it when driving around Donegal at the weekend:
