As I traverse different rural parts of Co Down I notice the cracking views people have. Would be quite a collage or collection if they could be collated to promote the beauty of County Down. First view is from the top road in Dundrum across Shague Hill.

This is the Mournes from Slieve Croob in the Dromara Hills.

Where the Carrig River comes into Dundrum Inner Bay.

One of my favourites, from Dundrum Castle

Evening across Dundrum Inner Bay

The Avenue up to Murlough House

The Squeeze Gut, Strangford, with wedding party in the distance.

View from Castleward towards Portaferry

Goward Dolmen nr. Hilltown

Inch Abbey

Helen's Bay.

Profusion of Blackthorn, Strangford Lough

Horology at Nendrum

The remoteness of Kearney village

Konik horses, Quoile Pondage

Sunset from St John's Point

Sand Art Killough

The serenity of Struel Wells

Killough

From Rossglass, across Dundrum Bay to the Mournes.

The "entrance" stones via the SW end. Audleystown Cairn.

Mournes from Slievenaboley, the Windy Gap.

Near St John's Point

And, of course, St John's Point.

Another view of Goward Dolmen
There used to be a family that lived in stone house with the dolmen at the back door.

Evening at Castlewellan lake.

There was no "mist" that I saw when I took this shot by the Lake in Castlewellan Forest Park.
