Mount Errigal, Ireland
This Month in Photo of the Day: The Stories Behind Your Shots While en route to another photo assignment I was drawn to this perfect reflection of Mount Errigal in the clear still water of Dunlewey Lough. I quickly set up my tripod and worked on getting this composition using the small bushes to break up the foreground. Mount Errigal is in County Donegal, Ireland. —Derek Smyth This photo was submitted to Your Shot.
