In the black and white versions of this picture you obviously loose the warmth, but noe of the drama. I always try to imagine a cold January evening here in the time of the High Kings. Tara is a place to let the imagination run free.

The colours in this Tara sunset makes it one of my favourite scenes. I love the way the clouds sweep towards the sun over the Lia Fáil and headstone drawing your eye into the picture and to a faraway place. It was January and freezing but the sky was on fire. In ancient Irish mythologhy Tara was the sacred place of dwelling for the Gods and was an entrance to the otherworld. It is clear to see why they believed this
