A visit to Ireland would be the trip of a lifetime. Travelers get to explore everything from the urban pleasures of Dublin to the scenic beauty of a road trip on the Wild Atlantic Way and the picturesque towns of the Lakelands. That's a lot of traveling to do, but the good news is that a NY Travel photographer has already done all the hard work.
Most people are a bit hard-pressed to hop on board a jetliner to cross the Atlantic. Those interested in seeing the country can now skip the hassle of traveling on an inter-continental flight and then tramping around 26 counties. Just sit back and thumb through a book of pictures that has all the memories and delights of an Irish holiday.
Those who get the book will actually be able to skirt past a vacation's most distasteful parts. County Clare's Cliffs of Moher are an iconic sight and among the mos-visited tourist attractions in the country. Unfortunately, this popularity also means that visitors have to face a tourist trap experience with expensive parking, hordes of tour groups, gift shops and other such commercialized aspects.
An art book, on the other hand, eliminates all these obstacles and hassles. It lets people go straight to what they want to see - the beautiful cliffs towering hundreds of feet above the ocean. A traveler getting happily drunk in the pubs of Dublin will likewise find it just as hard to take a train two hours out to Kilkenny.
There is no such problem for those thumbing through a book of pictures. The turn of a page and a blink is all that is needed to hop over to Kilkenny. Oh, and no train tickets are needed here.
Consider the famed Blarney Castle in County Cork. Legend has it that anyone who kisses the Blarney Stone is blessed with eloquence, otherwise known as the gift of the gab. Well, find out if the same blessing comes with a kiss of an NY travel photographer's pictures of the Blarney Stone. Each one speaks a thousand words, so they are indeed gabby.
