Kilkee Chaos
Kilkee Chaos
Huge waves smash into the cliffs of Kilkee spraying 50ft high during this sunny but stormy winter’s day. Situated near the famous Cliffs of Moher, the nearby town of Kilkee often weathers the Atlantic front, and here, 80km/ph winds drove huge swell into the Co. Clare coastline as the winter sun sets behind this dramatic coastal walk.
Behind the Image
While the Cliffs of Moher takes the glory of the most iconic location in Co. Clare, I have always found the Kilkee Cliffs to be beautifully striking in their own right. Still bearing the brunt of harsh Atlantic swell, this incredibly windy evening proved challenging to photograph as waves crashed against the cliffs and harsh sunlight eked through the sea spray.
