Timahoe Round Tower on the site of St. Mochua's Monastery, County Laois. Built in the 12th century, one of the finest surviving round towers in Ireland. Sony a5000, Vivitar 28-200mm f/3.5-5.3 zoom, manual focus, digital RAW, processed in Lightroom. #bnw #photography #ireland
Black and white photograph of Timahoe Round Tower, a tall cylindrical stone tower with a conical cap, shot from ground level looking up. The tower is silhouetted against a dramatic sky of dark, textured clouds. Two narrow window openings are visible on the tower's shaft, one arched near the base. Dense trees form a dark mass at the base of the tower, partially obscuring the ground level.
