based in Athlone, IrelandI recently visited County Wexford
for two days with my partner
and our three-year-old daughter.
On the second day there, we
went to the Hook Peninsula. The
idea was to capture the sunset at
Hook Lighthouse, one of the
oldest lighthouses in the world,
and the oldest operating one. It
is also one of the most visited
places in Ireland. The place is
very special, because it is so
wild and the waves here are
really freaky. Every tenth wave
or so was particularly big. I
didn’t manage to get a shot of
one at its peak, because it felt too
dangerous, but I was delighted
with my photograph.WEXFORD, IRELAND

It’s said that monks first
lit a beacon at Hook Head
in the 5th century. The
current tower was built in
the 13th century and
visitors can climb the
115 steps for sea views
