Classic U-shaped valley at Binn Chaonaigh in the Maamturk mountains yesterday

Binn Chaonaigh is Irish for "Peak of Moss", but the mountain really abounds in heather

Landscape photo from a rocky plateau between mountain peaks in the west of Ireland, looking down on a grassy green valley, with more mountains in the misty distance beyond them. To the left and right in the middle ground rise ridges forming a classic "U" shape, a legacy of glacial erosion. The predominant colours and grey exposed rock and scree, and dark green scrub and heather; the sky is grey and the distant mountains bluish.
