Capturing a Powerbase

I am organising the photographs for my forthcoming book, including this one of Grianán of Aileach, near the border in Co. Donegal. It is probably just as well the photos will be rendered in black and white, as some might not believe the blue of the sky. But it was that blue, I swear.

There are about thirty photographs going into the book. Most of them are of examples of the architecture of power I visited along the border. Grianán of Aileach is probably the most visited of all of them, in fact I had to photoshop a tourist's head out of this photograph.
